I'm looking at waterproof camera's too.

Simon, where did you get this? I have tried searching but can't find it..

Not entirely sure if I want a GPS or a camera.. Either way it would mainly be as a training aid, camera you can see how you can improve technique.. But GPS help it to improve boat speed.. hard decision!

edit: just realised that the one you mentioned is the new oregon one.. sorry

I agree about the go Pro, they are very good. Pretty versatile too. This is a new one from Oregon, I have no idea what it's like though, doesn't seem to give away much spec. LINKY

I had an Oregon one, but have just got this and think the picture quality is
better.

ive just bought the oregon scientific camera. what a bargain at only £99. the
video quality is pretty good. Im in the process of mounting it to my prod at
the moment. for some crazy pitch pole action shots.

I lost a PM from someone what detailed where they got their camera from.

 

decided I really need to get one.

Any suggestions as to a decent (but not too expensive <200GBP if pos.) camera and recording medium?
