A review of the pov 1.5 recording equipment. This is what I use to record my OFFROAD videos. Later in the day I had a spill at 35mph ish and landed right on the unit. No damage, they are indestructible.

Prices currently start about £500. But you do indeed get what you pay for.

  • is this camera hd?

  • @Aleex702 the hd version arrives here tomorrow, I plan on doing a similar review of it.

  • Lol, after we hook up these 4-5 devices your ready to go! I like the remote idea, its sexy but the GoPRO HD can record HD and is "Allot more portable" that the Vio POV 1.5... We want smaller, not bigger, with extra cables!?!

  • @JoeVSvolcano depends what you want the camera for. The gopro cannot record for eight hours in a day and only save small portions where anything interesting happens.

    I use this like a blackbox, something you can't do with the gopro. HD is all good and well but the file sizes are insane.

    Don't get me wrong, I love the gopro (see my review) but different cams have different uses.

  • I just got a used one today like new with everything & the vio mounting kit with rechargeable battery's for $140.oo I think it was a good deal and works great. I didn't have the cash for a new HD at this time

  • Sven, do you know where to get a cheap VIO POV 1.5 Video Camera? I wanna start vlogging but cant seem to find one that isnt a bit pricy. Love the look and idea of this model, but dont wanna splash out on the HD even trying the 1.5.

    Thanks dude.

  • Hey I am thinking about buying this camera or the contour hd wich is much alike the go pro wich one is better for skiing or longboarding and how is the quality

  • good review.... all is needed to know u put it in!!!!!!! top man!!!

  • so basically when the unit is plugged into your bike, it runs off the bikes power, and doesnt charge the batteries? or would it just not recharge the batteries that it came with?

  • Just got my pov 1.5. Took it snowboarding the other day and it is awesome. I'm dying to take it on my bike.

  • @svengalie AWESOME! can't wait for the review!
