Re: Helmet Cameras

I bought the VIO POV1.

The first lens that they shipped with it worked ok in good weather, but I wanted it for snowmobiling too. When the lens got cold, it contracted and pulled the images out of focus. I also had an issue with one of the units. It wouldn't turn on.

To VIO's credit, they have worked hard to make everything right. I have a brand new unit and they shipped me their new wide-angle lens for free. The even let me keep the old lens b/c of the trouble and time it took to get me set up.

I really like the system. The image quality is good, but definitely not Hi-Def. It is an SD-Card video system after all. The huge plus is that it seems like it's built to last.

I recently got some footage with the wide-angle lens. I'll try to post some up here soon.
