“Shoving everything into a single camera body is an exercise in compromise. There’s a limit to what you can fit in a wearable camera and the only way to get high quality video with all the onboard controls and a monitor is two use a two piece system. The VIO runs a small, lipstick style camera attaches by a wire to a handheld unit with a usable monitor and processing power to spare. 720p video at 30 FPS with a 142 degree field of view is par for the market. But add the monitor, loop record feature, in-camera editing and a wireless remote control and is makes the wire seem like like an acceptable inconvenience instead of a deal breaker.” – militarytimes.com
“V.I.O POV.HD is smashproof, waterproof, shockproof, dustproof…oh, and shoots 1080p footage of all the wildest adventures. And you can edit on camera.” – Gizmodo
“The POV.HD from V.I.O. is a flexible, rugged, and easy to use point-of-view HD video system. Its two-ounce six-element glass lens captures wide angle video at 1080p at 30fps (or 720p at 60fps).” – USA Today
Yo,
So it snowed a bunch over the holiday week, we were able to battle through the crowds and get a few pow shots, still very fun. The sun came out and has stayed out long enough too for us to get a park up so it'd been really fun at Alpine. Check it out i hope you like it.
Peace

“The POV.HD video camera from V.I.O. is touted as the “most flexible, rugged and easy-to-use” HD video system on the market. At $599.95, it’s also among the most pricey. But the camera package — which includes a small camera head on a cable (mountable on helmets, ski goggles, etc.); a remote control; and a recording unit with a two-inch LCD screen for playback — can record 1080p H.264 video and can store five hours of footage. It is a rugged unit touted as dust-, water- and shock-proof.” – Stephen Regenold is founder and editor of www.gearjunkie.com
This is probably some of the deepest pow that I've ever skied. I think that I went so deep into the white room a couple times that I passed into the seldom-spoken-of BLACK Room. On this particular day most of the mountain was closed, primarily due to high Avalanche danger. . . hence, considering the amount of snowfall we had seen in the prior 24hrs I wasn't expecting to find any angles steep enough for how deep it was. Well, as good fortune would have it, temps had dropped over night which left us with some 3 feet of blower pow on top of a fresh base. . . translation, "I have found Mecca."
What do you do you do when fate drops 13+ feet of snow on your little Eastern Sierra mountain town? Take a trip into the White Room of course. Chris Benchetler, Kristi Leskinen, Chris Logan, and Bernie Rosow take a break from shoveling and get some fresh Mammoth Powder.
