I have a Tony Hawk helmet cam that you are welcome to use. Someone on this or the other forum recommended it. I've never used it. I am distacted enough on the track.

ATC 3000 camera. I'm going to get one soon. Cheap, reliable, reasonably waterproof, and the video isn't too bad.

the tony hawk one sucks, I tried it. The one to get is the GO PRO HERO, check here: http://www.goprocamera.com/
we use one for the company I work for. Works great. For moto use be sure to get the motorsports kit which will have all the correct attachments. And when you do get one let me use it!

thanks seth man
looks like $180.00 buys the deal...makes sense that rentals aren't an option at that price. i'm stewing...might make a play there.

Parks, shop around for different cameras. Check frame rates and resolutions. You don't want to buy a crappy one, when for a little more money you'll like the end result. I use second gen Cannon minidvs that i strap to the tank. Its a bit clunky sometimes to mount. For the price and quality I don't mind if I toss the bike and need to buy a new one.

check the go pro resolution. For the price I do not think you can beat the fact that the entire unit is self-contained and waterproof (it is nh!). I'm not sure of the numbers but for us (at the bicycle company) using it on computers and in videos the resolution is fine. The sheot on the website is pretty true to the quality, check the MTB or car footage. My only complaint, and this is a last gen one, is that their was no light for record, only on. Hit the button, it's going, hit it again it stops. The new ones have that sorted I believe.
