BGT-31: Genie BGT-31 Waterproof Sport Bluetooth GPS Data Logger with SD Expansion Slot Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I got this for cycling and kayaking, and love it.
I've been pleasantly surprised how easy it has been to use multiple functions; the interface is surprisingly mature for such a gadget.
It easily and automatically logs tracks in internal memory and/or SD card at rates up to 1/sec, or after you've traveled a given distance. You can download tracks in google earth format and show grandma where you kayaked, then forgot to turn it off and drove home, and then had your son strap it on his bike for a ride: [...]
Trip odometer/speedometer functions are good. The "speed genie" shows your speeds automatically when you exceed a certain amount, so you don't even have to set it to the right mode before taking off -- just turn it on and it will both track and show your speed.
Battery life is excellent; using it an hour or so most days, I can go for weeks without worrying about charging.
I've even used it in the car by uploading routes from google maps using the supplied software and setting it to beep at me when I approach my turns. (Now, if only it had different beeps for right and left turns...)

ContourHD Camera Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a video of a couple of laps around the John Rose Oval shot at 10 PM under artificial lighting. I thought that the images were good with expected wide angle distortion.
I purchased this camera to record my speed skating at the John Rose Oval in Roseville, Minnesota. Most of my skating sessions are from 9:20 to 10:25 PM. The lighting is similar to a baseball or football field. I had some concerns about reviews that said that this camera was not that good in low light conditions but the images looked good to me.
In terms of ease of use, I don't think you can really beat this camera. The instruction manual is microscopic and you are up to speed on the available controls within a very short period of time. One of the frequent criticisms of the camera is wind noise coming through in the video. It turns out that you can preset the sound level with the software that comes with the camera as a download off the MicroSD card.
I had the most trouble figuring out the mounting system because it was not obvious that it was stuck together with velcro and I did not know how much pressure to exert to pull it apart. I also did not have any goggles that seemed to work, but used an old belt that I cut down and strapped outside of my cap.
After shooting the first video, the playback on the editing software did not go as smoothly as using other software that I had on my computer. The downloads to Facebook and YouTube went very well.
All things considered this is a high value camera that produces quality video. In my case I am using it at night in cold weather and it performs flawlessly.

Contour 1500 Contour Plus Camera Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Contour 1500 Contour Plus CameraJust got my 2cd camera from Contour.I have had NO connectivity issues, every thing worked flawlessly on a Macbook Pro and a Gen 4 Iphone. I had the Contour gps unit, and was a good camera, but I had problems with the on/off switch and returned it. Today when I got this new camera, the seem to have fix that problem. In 15 minutes out of the box I was up and running, and everything connected together.What I have found out with this unit is that the preview time is unlimited. It has been running through my phone for 20+ minutes now. This is a must have if your into any type of activity. I use it for riding, and my business as a Drilling contractor. I can record this entire drilling day from a safe distance.
