quotes Yep, this thing is junk. We get spam emails from the chinese factory that makes these all the time. Anyone can slap a logo on a camera like this and sell it as their own. While it might have the right look and sound OK on paper, I have tested enough of these types of products (including other models out of this factory) to know that it is complete junk. Come one Pinkbike, how did this slip through the cracks as a real product release? This is like putting up a Huffy press release on the site.

quotes It'll be interesting to see how the Wifi Bacpac works (and how much it costs). Looks like it is slated to be released "winter 2012".

quotes Didn't quite make the one hour cut-off, but here is a short bit of demo footage shot with the Drift HD on our chest mount which is basically a GoPro chest mount with an adaptor: http://www.pinkbike.com/video/222875/ And here is the Drift Chest Mount: http://www.launchhelmetcams.ca/accessories/drift-chest-mount

quotes Hah ha, nothing like putting yourself under pressure - damn iMovie just ate 20 minutes of my time. In the meantime, here are some photos of the GoPro and Drift side by side on chest mounts in the orientation that you would use them for MTB: http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/7265781/ http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/7265780/ http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/7265791/

quotes To everyone out there that thinks you can't chest mount the Drift HD, you are wrong. Give me about an hour and I'll post up some footage from a Drift HD chest mount along with links on where to get it. Because this new Drift HD is a lot smaller than the HD170 it's easy to chest mount and doesn't stick out any further than the GoPro.

quotes Some people like GoPro cameras, some prefer Contour. This just gives you the option of chest mounting if you have a Contour. Contour cameras are a lot easier to use and better suited to helmet mounting.

Hi, great web page at launchhelmetcams.ca and I like your vid on here where you compare the ContourHD and the 1080p version. I just wanted to check and see if there are any current coupon codes for pink bike members?
