This product now lies dead in my office. I don't have the heart to actually through it out, which I will eventually have to do. Yes, through it away...as in, put it in the garbage, all $700 of it.
The sound system in the camera has an intolerable intermittent crackling sound, very loud. The external camera is utterly worthless in that once it is turned on it will not turn off...ever. When it is on it sends a completely erratic and distorted picture image to the camera. The only way this product could possible be used is if I was willing to record an entirely different sound track and then match the video and sound together...what a hassle.
The camera is past it's warranty and I am stuck with it...total junk.


A honest review of the SC X105L.

I wrote an honest review of the SC-X105L this fall - read it and hope for the perfect helmet camera system - the SCX105L is not it!

There is a good usability review over at http://helmetcameracentral.com - look under the reviews section. The variety of videos on this site also represents a good slice of the conditions under which people use helmet camera systems.


This camera sucks

poor video quality, lack of memory for a couple of hundred more you can get so much more...


Great idea, poor video
rating: 2

I bought this in July immediatly before I left the country for an extended vacation. I have been using it for paragliding and snowboarding since then. Overall I think it's a great idea, but suffers in the execution. I would not recommend buying it. Unfortunately I was away too long to be able to return it.

The good
- size
- simplicity of helmet cam
- codec plugs into Apple framework - no requirement to use imagemixer if you're a mac person

The bad
- video quality
- battery life (internal & external)
- DivX codec conflict (I had to delete all other codec's before installing imagemixer to make it work)
- can't copy files back to the camera
- provided straps don't fit any of the helmets I use
- weather proof case doesn't close properly if camera is oriented to mount on top of helmet
- photo quality

Even at the "super fine" setting, the video quality is extremely poor. Colours are muddy, frame rate is jerky, white balance and exposure levels are terrible, and the lens distorts around the edges. My canon SD400 "still" camera does MUCH better video in it's VGA mode. I would rather that it didn't do stills, mp3, file browser, etc and just did good video. I don't think that's asking too much.

Hope this helps someone.
