looks like a MUVI - they sell for lots more than £16.99

for £16 probably worth a punt?

I got mine for £12.50 off ebay, works fine, just dont expect the results to look like the collective, its usualy dissapointingly more mince-core than rad-core.

I've got a muvi which is the branded version of that. Very good, you need to put a class 4 or 6 SD card in otherwise you get jerky video.
Works well in the cold too.

The genuine Veho Muvi ones have better image quality and stabilisation, and you don't have the date stamp permanently in the bottom right of the picture.

But for under £20, the knock-off ones are still a bit of a bargain. You'll need a fast memory card, class 4 or 6.

If you want a proper Muvi, I have a couple left over from a big batch I bought for work that I've been meaning to put on eBay for a month or two, and the Extreme Sports pack (basically a handy rubber sleeve and some decent mounts), give me a shout.

I've seen images from both, the 'fakes' are way better, especialy at reproducing colour, and muvis seem to be stuck at 18-19fps, mine gets upto 30 easily in good light (falls to 15 indoors).

if there is excessive movement with the camera then the recorded footage is unusable.. I use 2 of the branded Veho cams, as stated above the frame rate is pretty low for them, about 19fps. I have found that the cams give better results when used statically to record video.
here is a link to my last outing with the cams down at Kirroughtree 7stanes...

I used Sony Vegas Video to edit the footage..

where's the best place to get high class micro SDs? I'm aware that there are lots of fakes kicking about....
