HI,looking at getting another helmetcam and i was just wondering which one is best for loading onto dvds so i can send some off interstate.
I am no computer guru and wanted to know if i can go from camera to computer to dvd.Is this normal or do i need some program to convert? to dvd.
thanks ,gazman |

Depends on your computer. I have an iMac so it does any of that without any fuss. I'm fairly sure an up to date PC will do the same.
I have the CONTOUR HD helmet cam. I chose it over the GoPro because of the mounting options. I don't like the idea of having the camera on top of my helmet because I would wipe it out when going under branches etc.

| Gotta agree with you there Muzz, just brought a Contour as well. Liked the option of the slide so you turn it on easily with gloves, mounting options and not looking like a Teletubbie. Found that windows movie maker will do just about all that I require such as DVD's and UTube, no problems yet for a low tech man in a high tech world. |

I've got my self a sony action cam and I'm real happy with it.A headband mount is available for them so you can attach it to your goggles strap.
The only problem I have with it is sometimes it fogs up,depending on the conditions.....

| I have a contour roam hd and a gopro 3 black and the gopro is far superior in features and picture quality. However i do prefer the contour mountings. |
