The digital Hero 3 have been featured on the Gadget Show on Channel 5.
Tested to destruction !
Check the video:
Here is a nice freeride ski footage, good snow, bright sun and steep couloir …
all the ingredients for a nice video !!
Shot with an Actioncamera 480.
The Good: The VholdR has excellent new features; is very durable; has shock regulatory technology; plus the twin lasers to line-up your filming angel are all brilliant extras.
The Bad: The 2hrs of battery life is limiting
The Action Cameras bottom line: The innovation that has gone into developing this camera and all the new features makes this camera one of our favourites and is a definite up-grade from all the previous helmet cameras that have been available on the market.

The good: This is a revolutionary camera system allows affordable professional filming while coming in a small pack and has everything that you need to get going. The wireless remote and software package included is new to the market. This kit is all good!
The bad: The memory can only be extended to 2Gbs max.
The Action Cameras bottom line: This is the greatest camera to hit the market and the price shows the quality of it, which is fair because of the value that is received in the quality of the POV.1
The good: Handy underwater enclosure; low distortion; good white balance; and takes stills plus videos.
The bad: Sluggish; takes very soft images; quality only for internet/ computer viewing.
The Action Cameras bottom line: The GoPro Digital Hero 3 is a cool idea that could be fun if you’re swimming or any other time you need to dunk a camera underwater
The good: Handy waterproof enclosure; low distortion; good white balance; mounts easily onto the helmet and handlebar; and takes stills plus videos.
The bad: Sluggish; takes very soft images; quality only for internet/ computer viewing.
The Action Cameras bottom line: For a small, reasonably priced, user-friendly camera for biking… this is it.

The good: Handy underwater enclosure; low distortion; good white balance; mounts really well and is small enough to be concealed if necessary; and takes stills plus videos.
The bad: Sluggish; takes very soft images; resolution only good enough for viewing on the internet/ computer.
The Action Cameras bottom line: The GoPro Motorsports Hero is a great extra toy to add to your racing car, motorbike, helmet, go-kart, or anything to capture the speed and fun that you get up to!
The good: Compact design allows hands- and wire-free digital recordings, shock-resistant and waterproof to 10 feet, inexpensive compared to other video cams
The bad: Internal memory provides only 1 to 2 minutes of video recording time, video can be choppy depending on what you’re doing, poor sound quality, interface buttons hard to push, small LCD menu screen
The Action Cameras bottom line: For an entry level camera for capturing decent “foot”age without costing an arm and a leg, the ATC2K is leaps ahead.
There was a super piece on Channel 5 news last night about our cycle cam story.
A big thankyou to Bollo who offered up his crash footage to help add extra gravitas to the piece!
Check the video
Great piece here on Stuff TV about helmet cams.
They mention the amazing POV1 we talked about here and also some other great Action Camera products
It’s well worth a catch
