anyone used one? Any good?
Got one a few weeks ago but not had time to get decent pictures yet as too busy riding !!! Original write up here ....[url= http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/psa-kodak-zx1-high-definition-pocket-video-camera-50 ]Thread[/url]
Not managed to sort out a decent bike mount yet. Put together something along [url= http://www.camerahacker.com/build/Bicycle_Camera_Mount.php ]these lines.[/url] using an old reflector mount and some bolts/wing nuts off Ebay. So far found it wobbles too much off road and the wing nut holding the camera comes undone. The wobble is partly down to the length of bolt but also you are attaching it to the bottom of the camera with the weight above the mounting point. The unscrewing might be fixed with some inner tube in between the nut and camera to take up the slack in the thread.
But, apart from that the camera is great for the price. As above not used it much but battery life seems good - at least two hours on rechargables and now I have a bigger memory card I can record about 2 hours @ HD. Remember to factor in the cost of an SD card. Controls are easy to use.
Picture quality on the road has been good. Itdoes jump around a bit when moving but at this price I wouldn't expect super smooth. Biggest drawback is the editing and viewing software 'cos it's not windows XP compatible (not sure about 7).
