I just picked up a Fuji S2000HD - it's awesome. It uses HCSD cards and takes high def video, as many 15 min clips as your card can hold. And the still shots... stunning.

I got mine for $278CDN on sale, plus the SD card.

I bought one of these a few years ago for $279. Excellent pictures, and nice video. It is an older model so you can pick up them now for cheep.

Nice videos rshute4. I especially liked the first one. Ordered a ram mount with a 6" arm and will be trying to use my Canon Powershot A620 still camera and my Panasonic GS320 camcorder.

Nice videos rshute4, a lot of good inputm plus I like that camera. I was checking this out. http://www.pashnit.com/product/gopro...torsports.html It looked like a pretty good setup, but then I noticed it looks like there is no led screen which seem like it would make things more difficult to setup videos. having to look through the view finder.

There are downsides to setups like that. However, if that was of interest, this one may be also. If my setup doesn't work well, I may consider getting one of these myself.

Here's another option (I'm using the Amazon link since it's $82 here):

http://www.amazon.com/Oregon-Scienti...9507699&sr=8-5

It's not fancy and doesn't have the fancy mounting options of the Tachyon one, but the camera itself is very similar for both.

Here's a test youtube video someone has made:

It's got sound and such, but no display on the unit so you can't "preview" what you are capturing.
