Don't know if anybody is interested but Kogan is selling these: http://www.kogan.com/au/buy/aee-magi...rm=View%20Deal
Seems to be based on a similar design as the GoPro Hero. I have no idea of the build & quality but i have purchased gear from them before and have been pretty impressed.
$149.00
Looks pretty good and has a screen on it as well. Worth a try for sure!
Kogan has grown on is quality over time so the product should be decent.
Looks the ducks nuts now to find the cash
I'm thinking about it .......
Same here???
You go.....hahahahaQuote:

Well, back up to $199. I was doing some research to make sure it was decent and missed out :( The only thing that had me thinking was the 170deg view which I thought might have been a bit wide..
There lots on ebay but these look the goods.
EDIT: ColdComfort...reports on design, quality, battery lifer, etc, etc please
Argh, just checked out the VMS one and not as good as the Kogan one. And I had decided to buy it, the early bird catches the worm etc. etc.
Would be interested to know if the accessories are compatible with the GoPro???
Note though guys, i had a VERY quick read of the specs and did not compare but did note that from memory it is about Half the output quality of the Silver Gopro Hero3 and at $199 about $100 cheaper. I nOte that it has a couple of accessories though which is nice. i wonder if it is the same size as the Gopro2 maybe??
Was doing the same thing when I noticed the price increase, cheeky bastards!Quote:

Be Quick! This is a GoPro Hero2 i think and ends in a couple of hours. I think this is a Great buy if your int he market and willing to buy the Kogan one. The Hero2 is still a higher spec than the Kogan and would be a great unit.
GoPro Hero2 on Ebay Now.
Hey guys, back at the cheaper price again
Must be a night time deal type thing

OK, Here's a great comparison between AEE SD-21 and GOPRO 2 and 3
Make sure you watch in HD....on these results and price I just bought the AEE SD-21
my own observations, the SD-21 looks to be better then the Hero2 but close(comparable) to the 3..Like I said just my observations.

One thing I noticed in the vid is that both the GoPro cameras had a lot more sky in them, meaning that the cameras were adjusting for more light compared to the AEE. That aside though, there's not a lot of difference in the quality of the vids.
Yep noticed that, I thought that is the viewing angle....Still I'll know what it's like on the tracks soon :)Quote:

Ordered mine last night, hope they have quick postage.
Waterproof to 60 mtrs is amazing, I've bought waterproof housings for cameras before and they were $300 or more for the housing alone.
Yeah I'm hoping the postage will be prompt. It states "in stock" and dispatched within 24 hrs.Quote:

Might lend it to RLI on the Cape trip, he can do some underwater crocodile photography for us. Hope he remembers to let go of the camera at the last minute. Don't want to have to retrieve it from the crocs gut. Or I could just tie a cable to it and pull it out.
doesnt sony have a nice hand held one, fits nice nicely in your palm and can also get mounts and stuff for it
Yeah they do, they too are around the $400 mark though.Quote:

Nisshead have you got yours working yet?
