VIO POV.1.5 + Free 4GB SDHC by VIO POV - HC-VIO-POV15

Introducing the VIO POV.1.5! The successor to the extremely popular POV.1. New Features include a maximum recording capacity of 8Gb SDHC, 4Gb SDHC card provided, shorter tethered camera head, better mounting solutions, and tutorials on CD.

VIO - "The Leader in Wearable Video" presents the Wide Angle POV.1.5 Helmet Cam System. The POV.1.5 is a cutting edge, fully integrated point-of-view (POV) video system that's waterproof, dustproof and shock-resistant.

Helmet Camera Central's POV.1.5 package includes EVERYTHING you need to get going: Recording Unit with LCD screen, Wide Angle Camera Head, a 4Gb SDHC card, batteries, USB cable, TV output cable, wireless remote, star mount for versatile mounting options and it is all nicely packaged in a specially designed carrying case that holds everything you need when you go filming! All you need is the POV1.5!

The POV.1.5 easily connects to PCs and Macs just like a Digital Camera - except the POV.1.5 delivers DVD quality video with a few simple clicks. Drag & Drop right into your favorite video editors like iMovie, Movie Make, Adobe Premier, and more. If you're interested in viewing your captured experiences before you get home, just attach the included TV cable and hook right up to the TV at your friends house.

• Up to 8GB SDHC Memory support for up to 6 hours of DVD quality video.
• High-quality wearable video camera records with 720 x 480 resolution at 30fps
• Wide Angle Lens (110 degrees) with new tethered cable.
• Ergonomic user interface design enables single-handed operation and hands-free video capture
• Modular mounting system provides camera stability while attached to helmets or other high impact gear
• Components are shock-resistant, water-resistant and dustproof for use in the most hazardous environments

The mounts that come with the POV.1.5 are very innovative and very different from the mounts that came with the POV.1. There is a "star shaped" mount which is flexible to fit fit tight onto any surface. There are six magnets provided where three of them fit into each arm of the star mount; this creates the perfect mount for securing it to any metalic surface and keeps the wide resistance of the camera to a minimum. If you need to mount it to basically anything (even a cap) you can place the other three magents on the inside of the surface and then let the magnets meet and stick - this is surprisingly strong and shouldn't go anywhere!.

There are adhesive pads provided to stick the star mount onto anything if you would like to, there are also loads of other bits and pieces in the package which make mounting the camera to anything a breeze! The only shortfall of this mounting kit is that there is no 8mm (quater inch) thread adapton on the kit. We would recommend that you choose to add a base-plate and C-Clamp pack when checking out to make sure that you will have a complete mounting kit for everything!
