Helmet cam reviews bullet micro and mini cam reviewed cameras

Welcome to
HelmetCamReview.com
 

We test and review: Sport, Helmet, Bullet and Micro cameras.

Un-bias testing and reviews
"Side by side for you to decide"

WELCOME! Sport cam, helmet cam, bullet cam, whatever you want to call them they are handy little cameras for point of view (POV) video for active lifestyles.

Video cam technology has come a long way and changes every day. Why not get the best bang for your buck and the system that suits your needs?

We will show you side by side comparisons and honest reviews so YOU can decide what system best suits your needs.

This site is operated by people just like you who just want to go out and use a cam system that works for your needs. We strive to keep our opinions fair, objective, to the point and honest.

You will notice we do not sell helmet cams on this website but if you decide to buy a cam or related item clicking on a Google ad to the right will help us pay the website rent.

I do not use sophisticated color gradient charts and technical measuring equipment to do the testing, just my (and your) eye to decide. A real world, real use approach to test and review sportcams.

So...What's New?

HD cam shootout

Arguably the two top contenders in the HD sport cam market are the Contour HD 1080p and the Hero GoProHD

Both great units, but which one is best for you? Maybe our review will help you decide before you buy!

"Micro" cams!

These sport cams are about 20% smaller than other current self contained cam's in this configuration. Handy, light and easy to use... but how do these two stack up against each other? Read on and see!

The sportcam market is red hot!

"Self contained helmet cams"
We did side by side tests on these small self contained helmet cams which are
the latest rage in cam technology... small, simple and getting better every day.

Pictured above: Tachyon XC, Hero GoPro, VholdR and
the ATC5K Check out the results HERE.  

Way cool ACCESSORIES:
The LANC and LANC power saver - the making of a great system.

PROJECT:
What's the SMALLEST mini DV tape camcorder you
can fit in a waterproof case?

    

On the left: the Sony HC32, fits nice, but no spare room. On the right, my favorite cam, the Sony DCR-PC109. It's about 1/3 smaller than the HC32... gives me room for spare battery and tape. I had to do a simple mod on the camcorder to make it fit. Go HERE to see how.

Viosport (Now called V.I.O.) has changed their name and the direction of their company by the looks of their website. Everything is steering you towards their new POV1. Above are the new POV1 (black) and the Adventure Cam 3 (silver). Side by side, which is better?
