    I’m wanting to get a POV of a motorcycle rider. I’m assuming a way to do that would be to use a lipstick cam. Any other suggestions for rider POV. I was thinking something that could fit inside the helmet or something that could be mounted on a helmet.

    Do they make lipstick cameras that are HD? I’ve been looking and all I see is SD cameras. Something with an SDI out or an HDMI out would be excellente.

    Has anyone done work like this. I’m also wanting to get a reverse angle from onboard the bike. What kind of mounts have you guys used for this.

    Thanks mucho,

    Marc Chapuis

    I’m fooling around with one of these…

    Not HD of course, but I have Red Giant Instant HD and I’ll see how that works.

    For the price, it’s worth the experiment. As far as durability, this thing is used heavily in the motorsports industry…

    We’ll see…
