Looking for a multipurpose Action Camera (Budgeted)

[Tad]

Basically as the title says.

I am looking to purchase a multi purpose action camera, with two main uses.

Mounting to my helmet for airsoft playing games. (I have a Maritime ABS make with the side rails. Or the front NVG mount).

It would also need to be mounted onto my Motorcycle helmet (I had an incident a few months ago, and want it for insurance).

Any advice?

Also, Budget is about £130, and needs to include the mount bracket for at least one of the above options. (I can but the other mount next month)

I'm Honestly thinking doing this setup with a Contour2

Go Pro for the win, your wallet will loose another ton or two though lol.

Contour is indeed prob your best bet if on a budget, various other Chinese clones out there but doesn't make much dif if it aint GoPro or similar value

As Samurai said Mobius gets some nice comments in the press. A chap put two of them in a PEQ, however not sure about helmet mounts etc

That is all good and well, however it has major pit falls.

Ie. It's not water resistant, nor is it very durable.

What about the mounts for the helmet also, i noticed that there is a velcro patch but I can't assume that is completely fool proof on a motorbike!

I know its made in China but I think the SJ4000 is worth considering - all the reviews I've seen are very positive. Image quality may also be better than the old Contour model.

You've probably seen this already from a recent thread... but just in case: http://sjcamguides.com/sjcam-sj-scam-difference-real-fake-camera/
