cameras??

Have you checked out helmet cams? 30fps and really cheap, lets your family join in the fun! Makes for an easy setup, but I've seen them rigged on poles strung out from a rear rod holder which gets YOU in the frame too. Dunno whether I'd fancy reaching round for the start button with a lunker on though...

I have an Olympus 1050. Is been dropped on pavement, soaked in the foot wells and generally abused. Its been great.
