Testing SRX Helmet Cam (Contour Roam)


Looks good, i've got a moto comm that came with a L mounting bracket. I installed velcro to the flat and the other half to the inside chin on my helmet. Stays out of the way and records what i see. check" mnsnowscooter valentines day ride " on youtube.
 
devinzz1, you could be right.I know the GoPro has a great reputation,a friend of mine has it and his biggest complaint is the Looks,its just too stinkin ugly.He purchased a Roam same day i got mine.I'll let him test it and see what conclusions he draws from owning both'My last cam was the ATC2K Oregon Scientific(1.3 Mpx-Junk) for $249, so i'm tickled pink with this cam 5 Mpx, 1080P for $174, looks every bit as good as my $1000 Canon..
 
used the $5 camera mount pictured above from Ebay, tightened on my control arm,wouldn,t open far enough to put on front grab handle.Nice little mount though for $5
It handled miles and miles of rough terrain, never budged..
 
My son has the same camera. Works great! The mounts are incredibly strong. The camera is also easy to turn on and off, no fumbling around trying to find a button, as in the Go Pro. I can't tell you how many guys with the Go pro come up to him and talk about the cameras, all seem to go away wishing they would have bought the Contour. Just the cost differance is amazing. Anyway, if you want more Contour Roam ideas for mounting, just watch "Fear Factor" That is the only incab and helmit cam they use. Anyways, the Go Pro has a good following, but the looks and mounts are so awfull looking and awkward to turn on and off. Al
 
couldnt agree with you more.I almost committed on the GoPro too, but if i wanna strap a 35mm camera to the side of my head,i already got one of them,lol...Its all about the Looks baby""" hahah
