Cheap Bike CAmera
Guys
I have just recently investing a wooping £12.49 on a camera which im going to use whilst im out on my bike. It only arrived in post last night and gave it a little test run in the poor quality (energy save) lighting and the results were dyer! However, I cycle with my 14 month old lad to work, dropping him off on the way and attached it to one of the break cables on the bike, the results in DAY light were fantastic, so much so I'd thought I'd share my findings with you all.
Its called MD80 Sports Cam. If you just search for MD80 cam on ebay you can pick them up very cheap. I have got two, one from the UK at 12.50 but so long as you dont mind waiting a few weeks you can pick them up a little cheaps as they come from Hong Kong (£9).
They take MicroSD cards (also called Transflash cards). The camera is very good quality for the price, a 2MP camera recording at 30 frames per second in uncompressed AVI files. You will typically get about 10 minutes of footage per 1GB of space on the card. The cheapest place I've found that does the 8GB cards is www.play.com at £9.99 free p&p.
