What Goes Up, Must Come Down

Things that don't fit anywhere else...

Hi Cliff,

Thank you!

I never dreamed you could buy a camera that can offer such steady footage at such a low price!.

I tried a helmet cam on a motorcycle trip, and was very dissapointed.
Though it was just a cheap camera on a helmet mount... :R

Waiting for "someday" will leave you on your deathbed wondering why you didn't just rearrange your priorities and enjoy the time you had, instead of waiting for a "better" time to come along...

My guess a GoPro.

Many (most?) mountain bikers making trail videos use a GoPro. Lots of mounting options: top of helmet, chest mount, on bike, or set it up trailside with a timer. Great way to share your ride (or crash, as the case may be) on line.

If you have seen some of the Live Well Network, "Motion" episodes (local networks vary), GoPro is used in some of the handheld hiking shots. I love this show, and only makes my list of want to go camping places longer!
