5 of 5 Stars! (5 of 5 Stars!), Thursday June 07, 2007

I have received my kit....just as I was told. Everything exceeded my expectations......especially the video quality of the cam!! Everything was just right....I couldn't be happier.

Video quality is superb....it's damn near DVD quality when captured by my high dollar HD camcorder!! I was very surprised. Don't let the quality of the sample video's here lead you into thinking this cam is not superb.....because it is....will post some vid's when the newness of the cam wears off. Cannot seem to stop filming with it...I have been taking it everywhere....on my motorcycle....skydiving......down the river on tubes and kayak's......off road bicycling.....I've taken it everywhere, and it does not fail. I forget I'm wearing it most of the time, and it's extremely easy to use and setup. the long wire to the cam is a great feature, and allows me to take it damn near anywhere without fear of screwing up my camcorder because it can be located in a safe place due to the length of the connecting wire. Great standard feature I say!!!

I will make two recommendations: 1) Buy the remote.....it allows huge adjustments to the cam's recording...without it the cam is no where near as usable.....best 25 bucks you will spend!!!!
2) The filters are also the way to go...without them the cam gets too much sunlight and colors wash out pretty quickly...with filters in, and the remote...I can film anywhere...day or night, and the quality is beyond reproach!!

I am extremely happy with the setup they sold me.....and will buy all my future bullet cam needs here......but it's so good I don't believe I'll need anything else....'least till I crash the cam....lol...
