Check this (http://www.sxoc.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=448761) awesome post from SXOC. I'm gonna order one. The quality is dogcam worthy IMO. perfect for a bit of covert slidey slidey and not the end of the world if it falls off! lol

Anyone else gonna?

Looks great and the quality is superb for such a cheap tiny thing. May have to get one and for that price you can't go wrong.

As long as it works then for that price it's a bigger bargain. Let us know if all is fine l1nuxxx

04-03-10, 02:59 PM
Yeah definitley. I'll stick with the original, proven seller though. Plus I've seen enough footage of the cam in action. Although the one l1nuxxx found seems to be the same model. :thumb:

Nova_Tek
04-03-10, 03:11 PM
Does seem to be the exact same model pics, specs and all. but like you said either wait to see if l1nuxx actually gets it and it works before I buy. If all goes pear shpaed then original link it is :)

How much footage does this record to say a 4 gig card?

CoolTiger
12-03-10, 08:00 PM
12mins of footage. it used about 1.2gb of space

Not really, only shoved it in the dogs face for a few seconds to see what the quality was like lol not far off the youtube vids tbh. Can be used as a web cam too and that's not bad quality either.

Don't get me wrong it's not perfect but it'll do.

Nova_Tek
12-03-10, 09:46 PM
12mins of footage. it used about 1.2gb of space

SO it uses up a fair bit of space then. Was expecting more record time... 8 gigs would do approx 80 mins. It's a shame it's not remotely linked so that you can record or stop whilst driving, that would be cool.

I got 6Mb for 10 seconds so 36Mb a minute. A little over 2Gb for an hours recording.

You could open the case and run some wires from the control buttons to have remote control. Mounted in the grill with a USB into the car would be easy enough, could even provide the 5v power by breaking into the USB so it was always charged.

Or, if you run a car PC you could have it in WebCam mode and use the PC to record.

I think I'll be sticking it on the dash at Santa Pod or similar for a bit of a giggle though.

My HD camcorder only used about a Gig of card space when Ernie made his hour and a bit film at Combe lol

One of these diddy cameras would be ace to hide on the vx.

Nova_Tek
13-03-10, 09:35 AM
^ Your HD camcorder probably uses the AVCHD which is probably much better then the codec that little thing uses hence the better comprerssion.

I'll just stick mine on the dash and see how it goes.

Nova_Tek

lol thinking the same mate, one in the front one in the rear. (you'll need a remote button though, either that or get out and switch it on lol) Great for race fottage/track days, cruising or just driving on some twisty bits.

And they just take a micro SD card?

L1nuxxx bought one for 0.99p + p+p obviously from the UK. Waiting for him to give us some footage to see if it's the same quality as the one from AU. Yep Micro SD. But I'd get an 8GB card at least. From what's been said they munch MB's

I might grab myself a pair and sort out some remote activation somehow. Team mondeo seems to be a magnet for being cut up/tailgated (sometimes at the same time) so it would be nice to have footage should some of the numpties on the road ever get it wrong.

LMFAO @ the original SXOC post FAQ!


Q: is the camera Compatible with a Mac?
A: I Don’t Know, I don’t care, be a man and buy a PC with windows XP, instead of drinking coffee win Starbucks with the MacBook air. Think of how many cameras you could buy with the money saved NOT buying starbucks

Q: how do I attach the camera to my car/bike/cat/dog/fish?
How ever you want, but driving a nail through the middle of the camera "may" stop it from working and void any warranty you have

Yeah but a few people haven't had an issue with a 16gb card. 1gb=18mins
so 8bg = 144mins and the camera will only hold a charge for 120 mins so there is not much point going bigger as you will run out of battery before memory.

Quite possibly saw SD instead of micro sd, which are much much cheaper.

I know sounds knackered, but does sound that bad when your standing next to it.. Think its the camera picking up the sound making it worse.

They are clean and quiet, did it before i put the engine it. Doesn't sound as bad when your standing next to it, but isn't that quite. Might change the head from my xe as that was and still is the quietest and smoothest xe i've even heard.

Hmm, maybe it's the cam emphasising the noise. Go for a blast and an oil change ;)

Benn

It is, i've said it a few times. Oils done less than 1K

Ok, so... how do these work then? lol

I get all the pressing the buttons things, managed to decipher the instructions (lol), and the light flashes as expected when taking video and pics etc, but when I plug it into my computer I see nowt on the card?

It is an 8Gb micro SD that I nicked from my old N95, had a couple folders on there from the phone, but I didn't think that would matter...?

On a side note, LMFAO @ the chinglish instructions

Serious statement: This product is used in the illicit use is strictly prohibited,the consequences of self
I are serious camera, this are serious statement!

Benn
15-04-10, 07:26 PM
looking down at it, right hand two buttons, rear one turns it on. light comes on.
Front button press and hold till light flashes.. That's it recording. Press again to stop. It should then make a new folder on the card.
Mine makes "sun" folders..lol

How are people mounting their cameras? just a bit of old fashioned gaffer tape? or anything more fancy?

Jack
15-04-10, 09:20 PM
Woot, working now. I reckon it was a dodgy sd card - changed to a 2Gb one and it worked a-ok.

The original card I had in there showed up like this in Windoze:

just looked on ebay for them i found the same one but for £7.36 free postage. just purchased it so hopfully expect it for next weekend (hope so anyway) cant wait sooo cheap and sooo good on quality from videos on youtube. and if it breaks well its like buying a pack of cigi's so just buy a new one. might get a few more if its decent to have a all round track view for days like santa pod castle combe ect... nurburgring would be a great video.
