camera MD 80 mini DV cam, review and test film

MD80 review and some test footage shot from my motor-bike. I bought this direct from Hong Kong for just £15 including postage, but you can find them on e bay even cheaper. Beware of similar types with built in memory as there are some around with fake memory chips! It records with sound 720 x 480. See Chuck's web site for loads of info on the key fob camera, which I think is very similar.

For info, bike ride was from Brixham Devon, around the ring road and back to Brixham. At times you see reflections in my visor by the way.

Hi i'm not sure if this is the right person, so forgive me if im wrong. Anyways if this is the right person, I see your selling these on ebay and I was wondering if you were from bristol or hong kong as the ebay is telling me both. Im also interested in buying

@2bherealone Hi mate, I don't sell anything! I just reviewed it. I bought mine a long while ago from the GameDepot but I'm not sure if they still sell them? I would just read the reviews carefully on e bay and lok at the feedback.

Whats your new way of fitting to helmet as im struggling to find a way, i dont want to resort to the alliminum but i will.....

[bobflyman]

@grantnunn I made a small plastic bracket that fit inthe chinguard of my helmet. I thinkit safer than using metal.

@jcexy I can't imagine why they are just avi format. Try downloading VLC media player. It's free and plays everything!

@excriminal1 Hard to beat for the money! Should do the job for you. Assuming the quality is still the same as a year ago.
