WOW,
That's cheap.

I've been rather dissappointed with 7dayshop. I bought my son a MP4 player/camera for his birthday and after a couple of weeks, it wouldn't hold charge so sent it back. They sent another and the same thing happened. At the same time I ordered a little video camera for use with the kit car and it was a similar story with that. You get what you pay for I suppose, that's why I bought Mangos MP4 recorder!

That mount looks nice! It says the ccd is cmos. People who put cameras on rc planes say that cmos cameras are pretty rubbish quality but £25 pretty good! Is there any footage from it?

also what does ntdwm mean?

I've had a few bits from 7day shop, bit hit and miss. Some of the stuff is usable, some of it is tat!

VaneP - Nothing To Do With Me

CMOS cameras need really careful control when put in places with vibration as they suffer from their rolling electronic shutter rather than swapping out frame grab at a time like CCDs generally do. This results in some properly wobbly footage, as seen on one of my vids:

Someone else has taken the time to do a write-up so I don't have to:
