Just browsing around for a new toy and found this little gem. It is a full 1080p, water proof, HDMI interface, WiFi enabled sport camera supporting up to a 32GB microSD card for storage. Now, the price listed on the site is only $109.95 which is CHEAP for this type of camera. That leads me to believe that it is the typical cheesy Chinese crap that is dominating our hobby. BUT, if the specs are true, and this thing works as advertised, it would be a very cost-effective alternative to the more popular offerings out there. I found it here - http://www.nitrorcx.com/70p-301-s1-wifi-sport-cam-yellow.html SPECS: Main features:*Video resolution : Full HD recording, 1080P 30fps Photo: 10M, Jepg * Wifi function *H.264 compression *Wide view angle, 140 degree *uninterrupted cycle recording *Support up to 32GB Micro SD Card solutionSumplus 6330 FunctionWIFI, VIDEO、PHOTO、Motion detection、LED light Other function Uninterrupted cycle recording over-write first file if memory is full, no interruption between ideo file File protection function: once the file is protected, it would not be deleted during cycle recording Automatically recording after car power on LCD display1.8” LTPS TFT LCD Lens5G fixed lense, F=3.44mm, aperture 2.5+5% Sensor AR 0330, 3M CMOS Sensor, 1/3" light-sensing surface area video Resolution 1920*1080,30fps;1280*720,30fps; output file formatvideo(MOV) 1920*1080,30fPS80MB/min around 1280*720P,60fps picture(JPG)10M languageEnglish、Simple chinese, traditional Russian、 date stampON/OFF Audio recordBuilt in Microphone, could be turn off by menu or button Motion detectionYes Internal memory External media:SDHC(support 32G max,TF card) InterfaceHDMI/USB2.0 BatteryBuilt in(1050mAh 3.7V Polymer Li-ion battery) Battery lifeWith Wifi on: 1.2 hours With Wifi off: 1.5 hours charging timeabout 2.5h CertificationCE; FCC Accessories:1 * USB cable /1 * HDMI line /1* waterproof case / 1 * adaptor / 1 * bicycle bracket /3 * connection bracket/1 * helmet bracket/1 * 3M
There is also a Pro version of this that adds 720p @ 60fps and an LCD screen for $129.95! http://www.nitrorcx.com/70p-302-s2-wifi-sport-pro-cam-silver.html I think this Pro version is what I'll use on the 1/4 scale AL24 project!
Funny you should post this. I was at Radio Shack the other day and saw they have two action cam models from "Midland". 1080p - $149.99 http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=28326536 720p - $99.99 http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=25063046
