Digital camera reviews of ATC2K Waterproof Action Cam
Digital camera Review: 1st person view/head-cam
Summary: 3 Stars
I tried using this for a bike ride ... and there's mixed feelings.
1) i had no display to view my video so i had no clue (until after the fact) that what i was recording was clipped or at an angle. Maybe a laser guide and/or a level to help.
2) since the cam is so small, it was hard to keep the camera as still as possible, which caused a video so jerky that it makes the Blair Witch Project a joke. Standing still and moving it is fine ... but once in motion on the bike, it was starting to make me feel dizzy.
3) On the positive side, it is a neat way to capture video doing things you normally cannot (ie. biking, snowboardin, etc...). And for the price that Amazon gives, it's a decent deal.
Digital camera Review: A cheap toy
Summary: 2 Stars
Decent price. OTOH what you get is a USB1.1 device. It is not quite easy to find how to attach it to bike helmet and get the right picture that is focus to your way and make it fixed so it is not weaving all the time. Usability of controls is not very exciting too.
You can take some videos with this and learn what you will expect from your next camera.
Digital camera Review: A great deal for the price
Summary: 5 Stars
You definitely get your money's worth. While this is not a replacement for a real video camera. It does a great job for the money and stands up well to the elements. If you use regular batteries it will conk out in really cold
weather, but using either lithiums or keeping the camera warm in your jacket can work around this.
Digital camera Review: A little bit shaky
Summary: 4 Stars
This camera offers a great video quality, the only thing I think I have to find a way to stop it from shaking when using it on my helmet, when that is solved it will be awesomeDigital camera Review: ATC 2000
Summary: 4 Stars
The camera is great, its a well designed product and much better than its predecessor, the ATC1000. The buttons are a little hard to work, but that's my only gripe. For a simple headcam, it does the job & its waterproof! Ignore the internal memory, its not enough for anything, a 2GB SD card gives about one hour of video at the highest resolution, which works out fine for DVD's & YouTube. I attach my cam to ski goggles (for sailing videos) which works fine for me. Chseck out my vids with this cam at www.youtube.com/laserd8.
