"High Speed" Camera

Anybody use the tiny video cameras that mount on the hood or inside when wheeling. I saw on half the size of a cig pack. I think it would be sweet when wheeling cause I think its good to up 150mph.

Any samples would be great.

Check out the GoPro line of cameras. They are pretty sweet.

I run one on the front of my motorcycle on occasion. The quality is 'ok' and the sound tends to get drowned out by wind noise. But if you're going to edit in music, it's a good camera for the price.

I don´t like these cheap cams. They´re quality is way too bad for professional use. I always use Mini-DV HD cams with special car mounts or a helmet mount.

No, but thinking of getting one. The HD version which shoots in 720p was recently released.

From their website the quality was pretty descent. I know there are better cameras but this looks like a descent one. I love good quality since I am a photographer and that's why I would like to see some samples besides their website clips.
