[HD] Flip UltraHD Bicycle Handlebar Cam test - NYC Winter 2011

Probably the 10th bicycle camera setup test I've done, if you think this is shaky, you don't want to see the others (most of them I deleted). Sped up in some areas to keep it from being too boring. I seem to say that I'm really out of shape, and then mumble that I could blame the weather but won't... It was 60-70 Fahrenheit on Feb. 18 and I could cruise at 20 mph, so i'm not that out of shape, it is the cold...
More to come.

I have mine mounted to my handle bars too. It first shake so much though. But it does seemly have a louder rattle noise. Why waste $ on a gopro that you have to buy an LCD attachment on order to see what you've filmed? It's really inconvenient. What if you had horrible footage and wanted to re record? You'd never know. And what if you delete good footage by accident?

Flip HD all the way

@SKYLERPOSTON I actually now mount my flip on the side of the forks, it shakes much less, and very little if I put it near the brake lines, with a soft object between both of course, try that out. I'm quite happy with this cam, and i think i would buy a contour instead of a gopro, better helmet cam. Flip FTW

Gotta get the latest gen one.... That one has the gyroscope that helps stop vibrating apparently.... Might as well go buy a go pro

[TheFlyingLithuanian]

@HBSnaruto20 I haven't looked into the last gen, the only reason I was using my Flip was because my micro camera didn't like the cold, but it works great now, and I've found a low tech technique to stop most of the vibrating, jam the camera in somewhere.
