different camera thread
Fizzer - 1/2/13 at 05:07 PM

Rather than piggy back the 'cheap ebay camera' thread (which has turned into an ebay scam thread)

I ordered one of these HD cameras from a foreign site ankaka - The site has had VERY mixed reviews for reliability but, my order turned up! (lucky me)

I think this was selling for much more on the dogcam site although they have discontinued it now (probably because their channel partner was flogging it at half the price 'unbranded'

This was the video from it:

Used an external condensing mic from Maplin for sound.

The parcel tracking didn't work too well and I was getting a bit worried. Then a couple weeks after I ordered it it, it just turned up (despite parcel tracking not showing anything)

I ordered one of these last night for £99 off their website, and this morning the price has gone up!

I have multiple 'Extreme' uses for mine.

It arrived a couple of days ago. Excellent bit of kit, though havent tried it in anger just yet, only around the house etc.
