Digital camera reviews of VIO POV650 Mount Kit

Digital camera Review: Complex, fragile, and they fall off easily.
Summary: 1 Stars

I have used the VIO POV camera for six months attached to motorcycle helmets, both on paved racetracks and off-road, as well as on a jet ski.

These VIO POV mounting systems SUCK! I bought this $70 mounting kit, and virtually every mount has a serious design flaw, is unecessarily complex and time-consuming to use, and is not reliable. None of the mounts designed to be attached with glue pads have broad flat surfaces to which a glue pad can actually adhere. SO guess what -- they fall off! Every mount had some flaw that made it unreliable. For examples: The Wire Guide mounts don't actually grip the wire firmly, so at any speeds above 30mph the wind pulls out the wire on three different helmets -- useless. The "Star Mount" for helmets is flimsy, ridiculously large, and has no good surfaces to which its glue pad can adhere (BOTH my Star Mounts fell off the helmets just sitting on a shelf, even BEFORE the first use, and I installed them with great care!). Finally, all the mounts require the use of tiny screws that must be firmly tightened or else they'll fall out, yet they are of poor quality and strip VERY easily. And at least three slightly different size tiny screws are used (needlessly confusing), and no extras are provided. These mounts are just stupid compared to other cameras' clever mounting systems for helmets. {I offer no comments on the mounts other than for helmets -- the other mounts actually appear much more useful with caveat about the tiny screws still applying).

The newly designed POV Mount Kit allows the user to overcome all image head mounting issues they may be faced with in the field. The new Camera Clamp provides both the security and specific angles the camera head needs in order to capture professional quality footage and it is compatible with all the new bases for swapping from use to use. The cable guide is included to help manage the cable once the camera head is mounted.
