Check out WebDogPaintball's YouTube channel. He has a great vid on what to expect and what worked for him.

Re: Helmet Cam
I want the Contour, but the water proof Go Pro might be a better choice since it might get hit. I could sell you my sunglass cam or the flashlight style gun mount if you're looking for entry level. $20. They are 720p which is the same as the low end Go Pro

Re: Helmet Cam
Wow, that seems like a pretty nice camera. You making a plexi shell for it or just attaching it straight on your helmet?

Re: Helmet Cam
So I was testing out my helmet cam while testing out the guns I got. Going to edit them and put them up maybe.

Re: Helmet Cam
The only thing I would change is to get the helmet out of the shot. Other than that, great looking video.

Re: Helmet Cam
Can't seem to get the helmet beak out of the shot but I did change it to a smaller field of view that might help seeing farther away 
Also volume now fixed
I will post another video maybe playing with my own gun so see how the hopper effects the video.

Re: Helmet Cam
Looks pretty good. Maybe try jogging around the yard to see how it reacts to motion?
If the visor really bothers you, maybe try removing it and getting a smoke mirror? Would help solve the sun and field of view problem.
What program are you using to edit your clips?
