  Plenty of reviews on Youtube. Check out the trampoline in slow-mo if you can find it.

  I just bought one from DSE with free delivery - arrived in 2 days (today) so yet to try it out.
  Pros: HD. Good price point. Fits in pocket or around neck. Robust.
  Negs: Not stereo. No mic input. Built-in battery (2hr charge time)

    Zip-tied it to the golf buggy in the weekend and recorded the day in HD produced National Geographic quality scenery.
    As the daylight got low it compensated automatically so on playback it still looks middle of the day.
    But once it got dark it got grainy. 19th hole looked messy.

    Shudder reduction didnt work too well, but had to be expected tied to the metal buggy frame. Should have put foam inbetween.

    Need to make a velcro jig to wear it on my chest to record everything in front of me. (Might start recording everywhere I go for the rest of my life !!)

  Most of my videos I have taken with this are underwater tests because we are going o/s soon, so sound is loud/splashing etc, hard to tell, but I can hear whats going on clearly when it's out of water. Picture is good being HD, and although the unit feels a little bulky/heavy I like that it feels robust, and could take a few drops. Easy to use, kids love it, I was happy to pick it up from OzB cheap so it is all good :)
