( Visayas Region in the Philippines) I installed it on my Chev Spark...The video quality is good (no shaking even on rough terrain).I have only used it for barely two weeks then I noticed that for just few minutes that it is ON while I am driving ...the video screen suddenly turns OFF that I have to pull-over to turn it ON again.

JVC GC-XA1:  I have had this camera since 1-16-13.  I love it. I take a lot of still and video movies with ordinary cameras, and I have an Olympus Stylus Tough that is also shockproof and waterproof, and I took both of these skiing at Big Sky with barely any time to read the manual from 1-20-13 through 1-26-13.  When the battery on the JVC got discharged, I pulled the Olympus from my pocket. Holding that in my hand was a lot less fun than just reaching up and popping the JVC on on the top of my ski helmet. (I am going to buy a spare battery!)  I tried it on my goggles strap, but didn't like its weight over there. That, and the weight made the elastic move too much, and the video was bouncy, even with its Digital Image Stabilization. I guess it, like all cameras, can only stabilize just so much. On the top of the helmet it sticks up a bit but I don't care. The video was very good, audio was surprisingly good.  You can hear the snow as you turn on the slopes. It remains a fun camera, and the only thing lacking is the ability to record in an automobile as a dash cam with short segments automatically and file protection with a button-push. (For that seek a dedicated dash cam or a Mobius. But as far as I can tell, the Mobius isn't waterproof. But on the official Mobius site you can buy it with a water-proof case. This camera is water-proof without that extra nuisance.) I am soon going to see if I can use it as a dash cam anyway, and see what happens.

For the price it is a VERY stable quadcopter.  The video isn't bad, and it actually seems to look better if you replace the cheap micro SD card that came with the model.  You will still need to learn how to fly, but that just takes practice.  Lots of practice.
I have a Phantom 3 and I still fly this one just because it is a lot of fun.  Also, as it weighs less than 4 ounces it doesn't need to be registered.
I did not get this thing for free, and I am not being compensated for an "Honest" (yeah, right) review.  I really hate the liars that do paid reviews.  there is a special place in you-know-where for people that make money by misleading consumers like that.

Pretty awesome. It's discrete and the video quality is clear even at night, which was one of my biggest worries.

Not great video, but with 2mp, don't expect much.. Great opportunity to experience and record real-time video.
I flew it into a tree TWICE, extension ladder to retrieve... No damage.  Very sturdy A+++

I'm pretty impressed about the great video and audio quality for the price of the dash cam.

Day video quality is excellent, I can see license plate numbers at least 3 cars away from me. Video quality is still pretty good when the sun is in front of you, you may be able to see two cars away from you, but to me the most important are the car(s) in front me.
The night video quality is better than I expected. I have night video, where it was raining, and I could still see license plate numbers clearly. I live in a more rural area where there are no street lights in most roads and even then the video was very clear.

There are a few cons to the camera. The first one is the exterior quality of the camera and mount, the plastic is pretty cheap and flimsy on both the camera and mount. My second con is the cable to connect to the computer which is defective because if I move the camera just a little bit, it would disconnect. But this is a little issue because you can but another cable for a few bucks.

I highly recommend the camera to anyone. My pros definitely out weight the cons and the price is excellent.

Takes very good videos from my Syma drone and because they are so light they do not affect flying and flying time.

I bought my MyVu video glasses a few months ago because I do a number of long train commutes each month and they sounded like just what I wanted.  After using them for a few months I am still pleased that I bought them.  They do exactly what I wanted them to do.  I use them to watch iTunes TV shows, iTunes videos, and videos that I have converted to mpeg 4 (the required video format).  Because you are stretching relatively few pixels out over a fairly large area, the resolution is not great - but still pretty good.  Fine detail in a movie, like the instant messages received by cell phone in Casion Royale, are difficult to make out, but most things are OK. I am not enough of a video guy to know exactly why, but the videos I download directly from iTunes are considerably better than the ones I convert, even though the resolution is supposedly the same.  The sound is terrific and the video is pretty good.  The train that I ride has power plugs at each seat, so I use the 110 volt to mini-USB plug that plugs into the integrated port in the MyVu connector and I don't have to worry about running down the iPod battery.  I also have the MyVu battery pack which takes AA batteries and it works fine too, for those times when there is no power plug available.  I assume these kinds of products will get better over time, but for now, I am satisfied and would buy them again.

It seems pretty durable, although it's mostly plastic.  It keeps a firm hold on the handlebars, although it is not necessarily the best solution for my purpose, as it creates very shaky video.  It would be good for taking stills or perhaps time-lapse videos with a low frame rate.  Otherwise the video needs to be stabilized somehow.  It would be great for some sort of monitor or heads-up display, or anything else with a tripod mount built in.

This camera has done what I need it to. I drive truck and its held up being put and taken down everyday I drive. The video quality is great. The g sensor works. I don't think I've had it work for rapid deceleration but it will catch all the bumps I hit. Ive only had a few issues that I was able to resolve easily. The first was yes it is a cheap plastic toy and the sd card was touching something internally that didn't let the software run.  Very easy fix. Ask if you have same issue for fix. The o ring on the mount cracked. Also very cheap plastic but JB weld made it stronger than ever. The last issue was I stopped recording at 10:01 on a 10 min cycle and the camera was hot from the sun. Not sure what caused it to freeze. Never had problems with heat since. I always have the AC on so I'm sure that helps. Besides those 3 things a great quality (video wise) camera that does its job great. I do wish the camera had an automatic save button but it doesn't.  I used a san disk 32 gb class 4 sd card. No issues.  Saves about 4 hours before copying over

Have been playing with camera for the last 3 weeks and have recorded some video while riding my bicycle and depending on which software you are viewing the video, it's great except that I noticed it does display all of the jittering(bouncing) on the trails were my GoPro doesn't and that's at a slow speed but overall I'm happy with it.  Did noticed if the sun is shining directly into the lens, it does display a vertical line thru the video so I purchase some filters hoping that it would disappear but it did not, so try to avoid a direct sun recording.  My GoPro creates a small dot while recording in the sun.  Will see how it does when I use it while riding my ATV and if it's not up to par then I would keep it for other recording and more likely purchase the GoPro HD since I know that it records real good while at high speed or heavy bumps, it just doesn't jitter as much.

The one advantage between the Contour and GoPro is the quality of the picture, the GoPro creates a Fish eye look where the Contour is a nice flat video, no fish eye appearance.

Update: 01/19/13
Perform some video while riding my ATV and it basically failed, there were so much jittering that you could barely see what was actually happening so purchase the GoPro HD and what a difference.  Now I just need to sell this Contour since I no longer use it.  Sad part is when I got in touch with the company they basically blame my software not being able to stabilize the video.  Well it did try but the video just got worst due to lag time while stabilizing the video, sorry Contour!!!

Takes great 1080p video, great for RC airplanes and gliders.

I've tried a few of these things and have been a little disappointed with most of them. This one, I was able to mount it and plug it in and it started working. The only setting I needed to change was the date/time. I like that. The video quality is very good and it came with a memory card, which most don't seem to. Also a bit of a surprise, the body is made of metal rather than plastic. I've only had it for about a week but I'm pretty happy with it so far.

I have set this up in my pasture for the last two weeks.  I have set it up on video mode only so far.  Day time videos are crisp and clear, night time videos are grainy and tough to see what I am looking at if anything. Most of my videos don't actually have anything on them, so I am not sure if the video switched on after something darted by or if a gust of wind triggers it. All in all I am happy with it, I was just hoping to catch something coming across the property during the night.  I will continue to move it around and play with the settings to see if I can finally capture something.  I know critters are out there as we see deer, coyotes and the occasional raccoon all the time, the camera just hasn't caught them yet or it is set at a bad angle. Fairly easy to use, batteries seem to last reasonably well. I was disappointed to realize I had to order an SD card after I received it, so don't forget to order one of those when you order the camera. This product was purchased at a discounted price in exchange for my honest review.

I bought this camera with intentions of using it to shoot fun things, and videos for my youtube channel. Paying around $135 for this camera a few months back was a great decision. The video quality is great with good lighting, and not bad with medium. Don't expect to be able to see much in pitch black darkness. The audio is a little fuzzy, but that can be worked around, especially if you understand how to edit audio in certain softwares. Durability is great. Dropped it twice on concrete. 1st time, just left a light scuff mark, still worked perfectly. 2nd time, I knew it was falling, so I tried stopping it with my foot, but I ended up kicking it across the concrete instead. Still works fine. Also, I would upgrade the firmware as soon as you buy it, just incase. This is a great camera and I definitely recommend it!

they stay on the surfboard, even in wild rough waves....i am impressed how clear the video comes out and how steady the camera is on the mounts

I purchased this to capture some video of my friends and I doing some woods riding on dirt bikes. I'm not making a documentary or anything so I didn't want to put several hundred dollars into a Go Pro or similar unit and accessories. For the price, this thing works great! I did some YouTube research so I knew what to expect for video quality, it does the job. I had seen the video appear jumpy, especially in motorsports applications. It seems like this is worst when the handlebar mount is used. This might be ok for a bicycle but a motorcycle or snowmobile moving at speed on rougher terrain can be a problem. I recommend mounting it to your helmet or torso (chest protector etc.), the video comes out much more stable that way. You'll definitely want more memory but the included 2GB  card will be enough to get you started. With all the accessories and the price (only about $50), this is a decent little camera at a decent little price!
