| onboard cameras Hi guys i'm new to the forums, i am just looking for some advices on onboard cameras, i want a cheap easy way even if it involves tape and w/e. I have looked at pro onboard cams and there all going into the hundreds from what i can see. Currently i own a 125 CBRr and a JVC Everrio camcorder (you can look them up on net for idea of what they are), i don't mind using another camera and i dont expect HD Quality, just good enough footage for youtube. I dont mind where the camera goes, helmet, bike etc... aslong as it can point forward, and ideas for attaching my current camera or another cheap option with a different and cheapish cam are much welcomed, Cheers. |

| Re: onboard cameras If you have a search about the forums kayle, there's a couple of threads about this and if my memory serves me right, moto (motorrad1527) gave someone some advice about on board videos. A good place to start looking could be post made by motorrad1527  |
 Some time's my mind doesn't only wander, it leaves completely ...........  | |

| Re: onboard cameras I know of a guy on another forum who uses a bullet cam (ebay, about £15), a mini pvr (ebay Japan, about £40) and a 2 gig micro sd card. He was also advertising the set of leads which he made himself. |

you are right unless you want to spend hundreds you are better off buying an sd card camera which will be fine for youtube. The main points are "image quality v storage capacity" the reason i use DV tape is that each tape can hold 20gb of full quality TV sized .avi footage or put another way, 1 hour worth. The cost of sd cards of that size is prohibitive for what i want to do, the last euro trip i took about 100gb of footage for the cost of a couple of quid on tapes that i could (but wont because they contain lots of as yet unused footage) use again. If i bought 8gb cards at about £15-£20 it would cost me about £220 to do the same thing as £5 worth of tapes. hope this helps Moto | |

| Re: onboard cameras You would have thought that they would have used a bike with less vibration than a V Twin |

| Re: onboard cameras Yeah, I thought that. However the firestorm is a very slim bike for it's cc, and when you see the movie when Trinity's zipping between the oncoming cars, then I dare say they wanted as much space as possible. |
