/24-7PressRelease/ -- Have you ever seen the wide angle high definition action sports videos on cable networks like ESPN?
The rapid downward spiral of consumer video camera prices with a diametric increase in resolution and video quality combine to make HD sports cams of broadcast resolution at consumer prices.
It was only a few years ago that action sports enthusiasts like skiers, snowboarders, free ride cyclists and motorsport racers who wanted to capture their stunts on video would duct tape regular video cameras to their helmet and gear.
Since then, a whole new niche market of specialized helmet mount cameras made specially for capturing extreme sports have come to to fore.
These "helmet cams" shoot high definition 1080P video at up to 60 frames per second for smooth high speed action just like the networks. This resolution has about 2.5x more detail than standard DVDs, meaning the videos you shoot are sharper than any DVD movie you rent at your local video store.
Custom mounts make it easy to attach the camera to helmets, motorcycle handlebars, surf boards, racing car bumpers and all sorts of sports gear.
The growing popularity of these once rare cameras mean mass production and competition have generated an atmosphere of extremely friendly prices for helmet cameras. For around 300 dollars sports videographers can now take some amazing footage from once difficult or impossible angles.
Designed with action sports in mind, helmet cameras, a.k.a. point of view cameras all have a few things in common.
All are palm sized and light weight to be optimal in compactness and transportability.
Typically pov cameras come in a rugged case to handle the bumps and knocks experienced during these activities. Often these HD camera cases are water resistant or watertight enclosures made to handle tough outdoor environments with dirt and moisture.
Unlike regular video cameras most HD helmet cams do not come with an LCD preview screen. The reason is that the sports these cameras are built for require the participant to be fully engaged in the sport. A motocross rider in the middle of a jump obviously can't take his eyes off the road to preview his video.
You can often tell the videos shot with these HD helmet cams by their extreme wide angle point of view, sometimes bordering on fish eye lens angle. This distortion lends a sense of being "in the action", pulling the viewer in and more fully engaging the person.
With rapidly falling prices and ever improving high def video quality of these helmet cameras, pretty soon every weekend sports warrior will be able to afford to show off their extreme action sequences equal to anything you see on TV.
