ContourHD Camera Opinions
 

I'm looking to get a camera and mount to record some trips...

anyone have any comment on the ContourHD Camera and mount (+Car charger) setup?

I just got the contour HD a couple weeks ago. Actually took it out of the box today to start playing with it. It was on sale super cheap, so I think its a recently discontinued item since it was on back order when I got it. Its the contourHD1080p. The software seems really easy to use, but mine only came with a stick on surface mount and goggle mount, so I adapted my gopro case to mount the contour to it since the go pro was a piece of junk that never worked for me.

i found one about 100 bucks cheaper than the goPro... interesting to see if the mount is ok, or if that super-duper mount extension is needed... also if the car charger is needed, or just the battery is ok.

Kirkster has one, might want to check with him.

My Contour ROAM has arrived!... it is charging now... i'll post something as soon as i can

I mounted it behind the rear view mirror...

uploaded to YouTube...

Notes: The audio is very quiet... this is with the roof off, and the radio pretty loud.

also, I got a lot of reflection of the dash when i was in the sunshine patches...

i was a bit off on the alignment for horizontal, but not terrible. (at least i got it right side up :) )
