Smile DASHCAM video

Hi Does anybody uses the onboard camera to record what is going on in front of the car while driving ?

this is my first try :

the camera used Kodak zx5 burton and it was just placed on the dashboard using the tripod included in the package.

please comment
thanks

I'm on my work laptop so couldn't view the vid, but just bought a GoPro Hero 2 this week for track days in the Camaro, but until the next event, I've been swapping it in and out of both of our cars. I love it!!

Did your cam come with other mounting options (or have them available seperately)?

The only drawback to the Hero 2 is that there is no screen/eye hole so you've either gotta position it for the best angles using trial and error or buy the LCD screen seperately :(. Otherwise I couldn't be happier with it.

I like your video, a little bumpy here and there but I enjoyed it.

Is that anywhere near Bratislava?

Yes it is very bumpy especially during winter.
This is way to my work and it is directly in Bratislava ;)

GOPRO is fine buy too expensive for my usage and as you said the display is sold separetely.
This was burton edition so there was remote tripod case and 4 gb sd in the box.
All in all I am satisfied with it ;)

im waiting for the Wifi BacPac to come out, be awesome to have my phone and tablet as viewfinders and recorders. Best when wanting to shoot some cool car videos with the camera suctioned on the outside.
