Cool Helmet Camera Advice....

Me and my buddies are looking to create an extreme sports demo video and will focus on snowboarding, skateboarding, and Motorcross. I was wondering if anybody had any advice on which helmet/ handlebar camera to use? The camera needs to be lightweight and able to handle some intense conditions.

So far I've been looking at the Archos Helmet Camera, the GoPro Helmet Hero, and the VholdR Wearable Camera.

Any advice/ suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanx

Re: Helmet Camera Advice....

Trails, I would definitely check out a VholdR cam. I just took one out to Utah to board with some friends of mine and we loved it. The camera is entirely self-contained, small, durable and real easy to use. It retails for around $300 and in my mind is totally worth it. Hope this helps!
