I wear a Fulmer half helmet most of the time. I just bought an HJC full face for the winter. I think the Fulmer was a good value. Ive only worn the HJC once but it seems like good quality.

I wear a Shoei Multitek full facewith a flip up chinbar. It keeps the rocks, bugs and rain off my face and offers the most protection if I go down. It gets a little warmin the summer but a little sweat beats a shattered jaw or having half my faced scraped off anytime.

I normally wear my 1/2 helmet, but last week when I road the mountains, I wore a 3/4 helmet. Along with my custom ear plugs, it was quiet and enjoyable. I'm considering picking up a full face fore winter riding.
