seriously looking at getting one, full 1080p recording, footage looks pretty good and much better quality/sound than my bullet cam

Just wondered if anyones got one, used one, got any feedback good or bad about them before I shell out

thats what I thought, and neat design, and a pretty good price for what your getting as well, but always good to hear from someone thats actually used one rather than a seller saying how good it is

the footage is superb
wish i bought one only disadvantage is not being able to plug a bullet cam into it, but you could mount it pretty much anywhere a bullet cam can go.

just found this footage from this camera on youtube, watch it HD, you can spot the camera mounted in the car, they are pretty small, must be to fit one inside the wheel arch

I have a contour HD 1080p recording also a very capable camera

I like the design more ofthe contour but the biggest reason for going for one over a go pro is the view field, the contour has a 135 deg lens as apossed to a 170 for a gopro, the 135 it alot more suited to car use as the wider 170 deg field of veiw gives alot more fish eye.

Search YouTube for contour HD
