But attached are a few frame captures from your helmet camera. Believe it or not no damage to camera or my camcorder and only minimal damage to the race bike. I was able to pick it up, put it back together and actually claim a victory that weekend. The video from the crash turned out great! Had a few guys asking about what camera I use, where did I get it and etc... : ) Thanks again! Rich DeRousse

Just a quick note to say that I've been using the 21CW bulletcam as an in-car camera at the Nurburgring, and am extremely pleased with it. I have it mounted in the front spoiler, which gives an excellent impression of speed and a clear view of the track. I've just ordered a second camera to plug into a homemade switchbox (contact me if you want details). I'll send you a frame-grab from the camera.

Hiya mate, Just a quick email to say thanks for yet another cool helmet cam! Been back from the Motorcycle Grand Prix at Jerez in Southern Spain for a bit now and just started sifting through the hours and hours of video footage I took, both camera and helmet cam stuff. The helmet cams (both of em ) worked an absolute treat, superb clarity, great iris control/ exposure too!! I think for the purposes of mounting a camera low down on the bikes panels/bodywork the camera with the 8mm lens fitted was a wee bit too sensitive, causing a bit of camera vibration/shake.. especially at around 150mph and above!! helmet mounting this one was perfect though!
All in all, both units provided me with real professional looking results that easily equal any of the mass produced bike videos you can buy on the market today! Totally cool!! Thanks again Roy.. Nice one! Tom C Liverpool. (21CW camera)

I am very pleased to say I received the Bullet cam the7 very next day after you dispatched it, fantastic! I have used the complete setup now twice I had to carry out some modifications to my sony Cameras remote control. The pictures I am getting back are very clear and professional looking. Sunday I video my trip to the World Super Bikes at Brands Hatch and Every one was amazed at the clarity of the video and the way the camera compensated for the changes in light levels. I placed the Camera inside my Helmet and I have a iridium visor but the camera compensated excellently with the change in light levels and at times you would not notice that the camera was behind a tinted visor. The only little problem I do have is that the bikes do seem distant with the current lens I have on I do have to ride about two bike lengths behind the bike in front to get good detail. I would be greatful if you could advise me on a different lens, something to bring objects closer to the camera? As to giving out my email address I do not have an issue with that and look forward to hearing from the person you were talking about. regards Paul Very happy customer Please find attached one still shoot taken through the Bullet cam 21.

| have one of your Sony High-Res 480 TVL bullet camera's which I have velcro mounted inside on of the front air-vents of my mountain bike helmet. The microphone (I bought on of your complete kits) is taped to the underside of the visor. The image and sound quality (recorded using a Sony Digital handycam in a backpack) is superb, in fact the resolution and colour is nothing short of stunning. The focal length of the camera is also just right to take in the trail being ridden and the rider in front. | |
Hi roy,
In case you are interested, this is what I use the 21CW for.
I was eager to catch my mountainbike trips on video, and after discovering the fabulous site of www.petefagerlin.com I started looking for the lipstick-type camera to be mounted on my helmet. When I saw the helmetcam-footage taken with a 21CW from the motorcycle of Jørund Seim (I knew that this camera would satisfy my needs. Although there are a few points to take into consideration (camera has problems with direct sunlight, and the exposure is somewhat unpredictable when sudden changes in direction are made) I'm very content with this camera for this type of use. I don't have the impression that there are a lot of mountainbikers in Europe are shooting video like this, yet, but maybe they can become a new marketing target for your company in the future.
Thanks again for the service..
Bye,
Ed.
