Just wondering what type of camera you are using for your videos? I am looking into getting myself a new camera with video capabilities.

Thanks

Is this the same camera you use when water is an issue? Waterproof casing?

Been researching all morning. Man, bunches to choose from. One more question for you if I may...

What kind of apparatus do you have to connect the camera to your helmet and/or bike? Did you buy something or did you make your own?

The Hero camera looks nice in theory and comes with multiple attachment options and is a great price but I question the quality.

I really like the looks of a helmet camera or lipstick type camera but they are costly.

So confused! :ne_nau:

Thanks again!

after multiple types of helmet cameras, I'm happiest with my current setup.

Here's the configuration details:

W10/W30 is a great camera. My W10 is R.I.P after my latest Westwater rafting trip :frustrated:

But my new Olympus SW1030 should be here on Monday, I will post a review of it and a comparison to Optio.

On Aug 1, Justin and I are doing a trip down Westwater again and we will post our footage together to compare side by side :2thumbs:
