After a couple of weeks reading reviews and visiting forums into which helmet camera and lens would be the most suitable to get a decent looking video I settled for a Pro 520 Essentials kit with suction mount from www.dogcamsport.co.uk, also on my shopping list were 8 X Vapextech AA 2700mAh rechargeable batteries which will run the camera for 10 to 12 hours, like anything else on the internet when buying and not sure if you are dealing with a reputable company I will send them a email with a few questions on the product, if I do not receive a prompt reply walk away it's not worth the risk.

As I did a lot of research before buying my helmet camera setup though I'll pass my findings on. The most important thing is to work out what kind of film quality you are after because this has the biggest impact on what type of helmet camera you will buy and there are many available, the second thing is to take into account is the environment you are filming in, the more detail the scenery and the faster you travel the better the recorder/encoder has to be to keep up with the information fed by the camera.
