Sounds like a pack of rechargeables would be a good investment!

OK, i'm a numpty, must stop looking in lidl for aldi cameras .
Does anyone know where the mic port is so i can cover it? The noise it picked up just from handling it doesn't bode well for being out in the
wind on my rollbar.

The less I worked, the more i liked it.

Looking at the front, it's the black wedge-shaped thing on the underside, below the lens on the silver part.
I have no great expectations for sound - I'll probably put some foam over it, but most likely I'll just manage without.

Got one of these up today.
Quick question -
You guys that have one. Does the LCD display light up when you switch it on? The manual says that the LCD will "light up", but mine
does'nt.

Just go into the menu and turn the sound function off! If you don't want sound. Its in the manual
Unless you just want to quiet it down a touch then I'll let you off

The important trick is not to buy it with high expectations - it's a very basic camera that takes video that's of an "acceptable
quality", no more, no less.
The big thing in its favour is that it's tough, reasonably water-resistant, simple to install and reasonably easy to use (if you can read the
damn display!).
