 Pennsylvania |  Subject: front-facing video camera recommendationsLast year after a scary biking incident, I purchased a rear-facing light/camera unit. That seemed like a prudent idea for anything happening from the rear, which I thought would probably be a more common scenario, that was, until this past weekend when an oncoming driver chose to deliberately swerve into my lane, then repeat his actions a bit later when he went past my husband who was a few hundred feet behind me. I'd rather not buy another light/camera combo for the front as I already have a very nice, bright light that I use on flash mode for safety. Does anyone have any recommendations? |

Master  2855    Kailua, Hawaii | Subject: RE: front-facing video camera recommendations I bought the Rideye cameras for front and rear. rideye.com They are decent and I've used them for quite awhile, they continue to work. Generally are a good design, the only things I don't care for are the cumbersomeness of setting the timestamp, and the charging port is somewhat difficult to get to. I like the Hero 5 Session as well, a bit more $ though |

It is a decent design but the part I like the best is as soon as I hit start on my Garmin Edge (works with some forerunners and my fenix 3) the camera starts recording, once I hit stop on my garmin edge the camera stops recording. When I create videos the "G-Metrix" data can be pulled from its internal collection or you can tie it to your garmin edge/forerunner/fenix data. |
