 Affordable, durable 'Action Cam' performs as advertised. July 10, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I purchased this camera (along with a 2gb SD card) with the intention of capturing on-board video while riding my motorcycle. My initial experience was that the video quality exceeded my expectations, but the microphone was a bit too well protected. After reading a few reviews, I discovered that a rubber waterproofing cover was responsible for muting the mic, but that it could be removed. After searching for a driver/bit to fit the (recessed triangle) fasteners, I managed to successfully use a $1 eyeglass flathead screwdriver to remove the two mic cover screws. I then carefully packed the microphone cavity (knowing that microphones are extremely delicate) with cotton from a cotton swab, adding even more directly under the cover. As other reviews mention, this fix restores the sound to that of other DV cams (I saved the rubber mic cover in case I decide to jump my motorcycle into a lake ;-). I spent just over $100 for my ATC 2K, and feel I got a good deal, despite others' complaints about the buttons being too stiff, etc. This camera is perfect for what I bought it for.

Nifty. July 5, 2008
Does what its supposed to do. although the sounds picks up everything but voices, it seems. but excellent overall. taking it whitewater rafting later this summer. . can't wait to see how it does.
 Great for the money June 15, 2008
For the money this is a great product. I recently used it kayaking, white water rafting, on zip lines through trees, on jet skis and filming the kids body surfing. The challenge isn't the quality of the video but rather your ability to keep the camera steady!!! I used the included silicone grease and water was not an issue... One thing you need to practice with is camera alignment. I found at first I was shooting too high...That was easy to correct but the absence of wires make this worth the money...
Good Camera for where I take it. June 15, 2008
The camera does what it is supposed to do, records. I take it to one of the most extreme places I think it could be taken, which is into a burning house. The pictures is really grainy in low light, but still shows whats going on. The casing is a little heat sensitive though, first fire I wore it into it got a little melted. Here is a link to it in action, just copy and paste.
