Chapstick Cam

[John Hudson]

With all the gear heads and uberhobbyists on this board, I thought there might be some interest in a new, self-contained video recorder I ran across last night.

The Replay XD is the smallest camera I have seen on the market yet, and looks like it could be a great addition to an RC project.

At $189 I'd rather just get a GoPro HD. These are 'DVD' quality which are probably 720x480 resolution. I can get that resolution in a car keys camera from Hong Kong for less than $10 and they are smaller and lighter.

I guess you can't call it 'lipstick cam' due to trademark? John..I see you are up in CAN, but is the company North American based? I see the site says "50 years of experience". We all know anyone can say that though.

Not even.. It's VGA (640x480).

However, in an aluminum case, and probably potted on the inside, it's probably going to be more rugged than the HK specials. Would be nice if it had a webcam mode where it could stream through the USB port.
