I am thinking about getting a decent bullet camera for track days and general messing about. What do you need to look for when choosing a decent one?
Thanks

rear mount is in the towing eye cover that i modified
the kit is amazing, comes in a proper abs case so nothing will get damaged and their customer service is outstanding

I've got one of these
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Sony-480-line-...QQcmdZViewItem
Make sure you get a PAL one though as the seller is in the US, good seller though
And I'm planning to mate it with one of these

when you buy one, make sure it is ful lscreen colour pal (640 x 480). i also got a sun shield if they do one, several spare lens covers, and a variety of lenses.
i used a company in ireland, www.rfconcepts.co.uk
these cameras give a normal composite video output. to record it, you can use a normal vcr, a camcorder if it has an external analogue input, or some sort of digital recording device like laptop of PVR if they have an input for analogue video.
i used to use my camcorder, and then put it on the laptop using firewire, but i recently bought a pcmcia analogue capture card to do it directly for in car stuff. i'll still use the camcorder in the rucksack for ski/board though
