Mobius Action Camera (cheap ebay cam) for vlogging?

Would you mind linking them? Of all the Mobius searched I've done, they're all £60+. I'm thinking of a second rear facing camera, and a mobius would be perfect being small, clip it under the top box rack.

New to the forums, but had to chime in. I own one, and LOVE it. I am about to start Vlogging with it. I'm going to wire a switched mic jack to it and have a mic mounted inside my helmet. It is a STEAL for its quality and functionality, and the community is great. There's constant firmware updates and new features added. You can even modify the settings on the go from your android device.. You could buy 4 of these for the price of the newest GoPro. It records in 1080p at 30 fps and 720 at 60 fps. You can mod it to accept an external mic, and also install a different lens with a wider FOV. Hope that helps.

very true, they are a great camera for the price! Keen to see how you go with the audio set-up. I haven't done it to mine yet but I am keen to give it a try. I am thinking using a decent mic like the Audio Technica ATR3350 will help out with the audio quality too

I have a friend who has one and it's pretty good, they're picking up price in the UK, about £70 off eBay if you use a reputable seller.

Where I see the downside now (bar external microphone ports) is by the time you've bought a waterproof case and mounting systems, it's starting to add up a bit.

If you're not fussed about size and shape for £75 you can get the SJ4000 GoPro lookalike. Comes with case and brackets, and the mounts are compatible with GoPro. It's on Techmoan.

Back to the möbius, if you're using it as a non-mic'd camera not in a case, a bit of blue tac over the mic hole does wonders for wind noise.

even with the external case and other odds and ends it still seems cheaper then a gopro by far! Although it does sounds like you guys are paying a bit much for them in the uk. Maybe try ebay.com instead of ebay.co.uk? This is where I picked up mine http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mobius-Acti...FPS-720P-60FPS-Pocket-Camcorder-/151071891306
 
So 70 USD but from Hong Kong. I'll open that up on the laptop and see if that seller has a UK listing. That's about 50GBP iirc.
 
buy cheap buy twice ;) to me i dont think ill move from drift, id have a go pro aswell but drifts just clicked with me
