  Oregon Scientific Video Camera August 23, 2006 I got this camera for use on my Yamaha Rhino while off roading. The camera does a good job taking moving video's. It has a fluid motion not a jerky one like I initially thought it would. For the money the camera does a great job.

I was able to find these locally for 59$. I picked one up to use as a helmet cam for when i go kite buggying (using a parafoil kite to power a 3 wheeled buggy across the land. lots of fun! and a great sport check out windpowersports.com for more info) Anyway, for the price this thing is great. If the resolution was a little better than 640x480 and fps was better than 15 this would be awesome. the only thing i dont like about this cam is that it has a 1gb limitation on the size of sd card you can use with it. i really wanted to get a 2gb or 4gb card for this but it looks like 1gb is the limit. the best part is that it is self contained. no wires whatsoever. the still camera is decent but not great. if youre looking for a budget helmet cam for recreational use than look no further. if youre looking for great quality resolution, you may have to spend 2x or 3x as much at least. supposedly another beefed up version of this cam will be put out by Oregon scientific soon. If they have listened to what we didnt like about this cam and they improve on it, we should have a gem on our hands.
  Great camera at an even better price! April 9, 2006 21 out of 21 found this review helpful
I want to expeirment a little with videos, but I don't want to risk my high dollar camera and lose or damage it. This camera is perfect for my needs. I have strapped it on my dog Leroy for real interesting dogs eye view videos. I have attached it to the front bumper of my car for some really cool driving footage... The video is fine for projects you want to post to the web or email to friends. As other reviewer says, you can get 45-55 min. of video on a 1 Gig. SD card. This camera will only support cards up to 1 Gig. well made, easy to attach to other objects. and tons of fun.
  ATC-1000 Hands-free video camera March 17, 2006 8 out of 9 found this review helpful
Lack of a view finder is main disadvantage. With a 1-GB memory chip it will record an hour of passable quality home video. Battery life may limit recording time. With a memory card reader the recorded video can be copied to a Mac and edited just like any other digital video. Camera attaches to a ski helmet with Velcro.
  Wish it would work in cold weather February 12, 2006 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I have yet to get this camera to record below about 40 degrees. When I turn on video record mode, it turns itself off almost immediately, presumably because of low battery power. I makes great recordings in my living room, but not outside. Hopefully it will be better in the summer.
