Our local bus company have the 6 minute cam fitted behind the drivers head it records 24 hours a day on a loop and if anything happens the driver presses a button and it saves the last six minutes on a built in chip that he can keep as evidence.

I made a GoggleCam (put a small camera in my goggles) and used it on my quad.  You can see a couple of vids here:

I intend to mount it on the rear view mirror of Clyde 2.0 at some point.

When  I was training to become an ADI my instructor used a camera which stuck to the windscreen and recorded to a standard VHS recorder powered from an inverter. Both the video and audio quality was excellent ~ you could hear me cursing when I missed something he did  :doh:

I use a small camcorder when recording demonstration drives for my IAM Associates. This is mounted on the dash with a short bungee (actually a "trouser blouser") which hooks into two small holes I drilled into the top of the dash under the pen tray. When I want to use it I just remove the rubber insert from the tray and secure the camcorder. With a high capacity battery and medium quality video I can get more than an hour of recording on a tape and the remote control signal can be bounced off the inside of the windscreen to control the camcorder (rec/pause/stop/etc).

Those oregon scrientific cameras are poor...

The video is not steady, and the audio from it is horrid.

I ended up taping a normal digital camera on video mode to the back side of the sun visor.

Looked better than anything i did on the action cam.

Ps - Scuse the footage of me hooning though a flood! - You could see out of the drivers side... Honest!

You could always buy a camcorder and one of these...
