When you use 720 action, what quality do you set it to in, in the camera configuration. I was curious as to how the quality makes a difference on poor, medium, highest.

Thanks, I'll give that a shot. Is it true though that you can't upload 60fps onto youtube?

Also how much record time are you getting and battery life? I bought two batteries and 2 8gb cards.

Thanks.

I have never run out with 1 battery and 16g card...but I do not film non stop. Usually leave it in the pack till the good riding starts.


Not sure about the youtube thing....how would it even know a video is a video?

VholdR Info

My son races dirt bikes, we have used this for a couple of seasons, it works great for that also. I should use it more than I do always just to busy to get it set up when I'm going to go riding.

We have the VholdR and all the mounting kits and accessories, here is a link to our VholdR section:

Man those things are clear. I can't wait for some snow to get mine out and use it. What quality are you using on the 720 action? Low, medium or highest?

Thanks.

Here are my settings

Okay so I got myself a Contour 1080P HD and can't wait to try it out. Wife got me some 509 Sinisters and when I try to mount the camera with the goggle mount the 509 giant metal emblem won't let you mount the camera back far enough to point it straight forward. Has anyone else had this problem? Thinking about "unstitching" one of the emblems.

That's what I did, 2 minutes with an exacto knife, then you have a 509 belt buckle.:face-icon-small-win

Which settings to use to capture how steep the hills are that you ride on? Always much flatter on film than in reality..

Can you use something in the background like a tree line to depict the angles?
