Thread: PUMA POV

That is awesome SLT, fantastic bit of gear.

The only decent video editors I've seen are exxy, unless you procure one from the www for nothing. I guess you don't have a mac, because imovie is free software, easy to use and can do 90% of what you would need.

Vrey well doen!
How much cost a VIO POV camera ?

V.I.O. | Point-of-View (POV) Video Cameras and Helmet Cam Accessories

The local distributor has it for $600. B&H currently lists it for US$450, I suppose with exchange rate and freight it would work out about the same.

Btw. the actual quality is a fair bit better than you can see on youtube, pretty much DVD quality with 720x480.

$ 600.00 pass on that one, I need more good glass for the D300s

Doors, frames, bonnet, even the wasted area under the windscreen where the flaps used to be. Only the roof and wheel guard seem to be made of aluminium.

Thats pretty cool, is that the shortest green light ever at the end?

I think you get what you pay for here.

There are cheaper types on ebay under 'helmet cams'. They record directly to SD/microSD and only cost $50-$80. The downside is the optics are average, the contrast is crappy and the resolution is only 640x480. Still for 'b roll' type shooting, I think they could be pretty good value for money.
