bendmeroundthehedge Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 First outing of the Contour HD headcam straight out of the box. Not bad considering the size of the camera. Have to learn to restrict the head movements a bit. ]http://www.youtube.com/user/bendmeroundthehedge#p/a/u/0/aAKiEgv2K3s Pilots: Dr. Marc - Fresh Breeze Sprotex Me - FlyProducts Gold 115 Kev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fanman Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 Kev, I moved my mount from the side of my helmet to the top with the lens rotated 90 degrees. On the side it occasionally got tangled in the risers on a reverse launch. Also you don't get the side of the helmet in the view. It also removed the small amount of weight trying to twist the helmet slightly sideways and evens out the viewpoint differences between looking left and right. On a tandem it also allows a slightly higher perspective over the top of the front seat occupant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bendmeroundthehedge Posted May 2, 2010 Author Share Posted May 2, 2010 Excellent pointers. As a matter of interest, how have you attached your camera? Have you just used velcro? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fanman Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 Yes but I dont use the velcro inside the mount. I bought some heavy duty velcro discs off ebay and attach it using those. I have several helmets so this way I can easily swap it back and forth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
