ContourHD 1080p User Opinions Summary:

ContourHD 1080p Full HD Helmet Camera can be worn anywhere. This little thing is operated through the included software, except the on /off. The camera is well built and very durable. It produces good HD videos. But remember it is not waterproof, only water resistant. So you may consider accessorizing it with a water proof case.

What do people say
I just took this new camera out for a ride in the CA desert on my dirt bike today. Wow! The setup and ease of use is remarkable (all camera config is done via their easy edit software), the goggle mount worked just perfectly. You can use the software it comes with for simple cuts and montages and media management but if you want to edit on your own, the camera simply shows up as an external drive on a PC to pull off the video files. Image quality is great and more than what you need for the application – i’m using max data rate. Captured about 2 hours of footage on a charge – didn’t need any more, i foresee the extra battery being essential for all day rides though. If you’re capturing highest quality HD resolution at the max data rate you will need the 16GB card as well. The durability and features are fantastic – when it’s mounted the laser guides help you dial it in perfectly so you know the direction/angle you are shooting before you head out.

Video quality is superb, no complaints. It really is as good as they’re saying it is, most of the other reviews i’ve read seem to amplify the negative qualities. the fisheye effect at 135 degree field of view is really not noticeable unless you get right up on something then it’ll distort but other than that, its rather pleasant and easy to watch. recording at 1080p you have a 110 degree field of view. I have noticed that when you point the camera directly at the sun it causes a vertical strip to appear… some sorta digital artifact due to being pointed directly at the sun, but other than that there is no lens flare or ghosting. at it only really occurs when you have the sun directly in the frame. pretty normal for the size sensor that’s in there.
Audio quality… 5/10. cuz when your standing still or walking its good. picks up your voice, depending on the where it is/and the microphone gain settings. on a motorcycle, anything faster than 10mph is just wind noise. really good wind noise at that, no distortion or any sort of harmonic. so be prepared to invest in a way to dub music over the video if you’re really into showing off your adventures.
