## Description

desertcart.com : Tachyon OPS HD Helmet Camera : Flash Memory Camcorders : Electronics

Review: Great Price Great Picture Great Camera! - EDIT: I just watched the video that I posted and the quality on desertcart is garbage. it even looks better on facebook. Compared to this my saved video on my PC if perfect. not sure where the problem is. This Is the first time I actually used the camera, I was fortunate that it was also a pretty good run for me. 1st game of the day and was a 3 on 3 match. I eliminated all 3 of the enemy players. The picture is better than I expected I was especially impressed at the quality of the picture when I was running. I move pretty quick and even when spinning around it didn't loose much quality. I uploaded this to FB and the picture isnt as good as it is when I watch it from my computer but I guess thats FB's fault not tachyons. I have a massive PNY 32gig card that is a class 10 I bought from best buy. I would recommend a high quality card that is a class 6 or 10 dont buy them online cuz there are so many bootlegs out there that say they are class 6 or 10 but are really class 2. spend at least $40 on a card and you will be fine. I ordered this camera from www.desertcart.com but since desertcart didn't have the Plastic Shell (impact armor) for sale I bought that from the tachyon website. Since I have prime shipping I got it on Friday and custom mounted it to my mask that night was ready to shoot video that Saturday morning. The Impact armor hadn't arrived and I was a little afraid that I would damage it that day but I did have the water resistant rubber shell(which comes with the camera)on it. I bet that the water resistant shell works as well as the impact armor does really, it has a fairly thick plastic lens cover on it and the rubber covers the whole camera. I didn't take a hit directly to it so I cant say for sure how well it would protect from a direct hit but I can say that it did a excellent job keeping the camera lens and all clean from the splattering paint that was covering me. I will upload a sample video and a picture of the camera on my mask. Here's the low down Pros: Very small size (might be the smallest there is for HD) Light weight Inexpensive Has a time lapse still picture setting that is pretty cool Comes with several mounts and rain proof cover Tons of accessories availible (gun cam mounts, impact armor, chargers ect...) Uses micro SD cards. (I recommend a Class 10 sandisk or a PNY from a brick and mortar retail store) beware of bootlegs online Easy to use - turn on/off, upload ect. Rechargeable internal battery Battery is said to last up to 4 hours on a charge Can mount in many positions Body is square so you can set it on something and have good level shot and it wont roll around. No cords coming off it unless you are charging the camera or uploading video Cons: (None really but I will try) The picture quality is not as good as some of the other HD cameras out there but considering that it is half the price that is reasonable. It would be nice if Tachyon would offer a lens cover that you could get to zoom the image. I only say this because when I shoot someone I can see it clearly and easily through my eyes but every thing looks far away in the video. ((Wide angle lens)this is typical of helmet cams)
Review: Tachyon Ops HD - Nifty little camera. It's pretty durable. Very lightweight, small, and affordable. Its transition from outdoor to indoor and vice-versa is decent. Catches audio surprisingly well. I've had the camera for only a few hours now and have ran into a few issues, not necessarily about the camera but more so about the mounts. The clip mount doesn't work well with goggles since attaching it to the strap allows the camera to shake and bounce a lot. The clip mount is very versatile, but is also cheap. It can be adjusted by loosening and tightening two screws, but because of the cheaply made mount, overtightening the screws and breaking and chipping the mount is VERY VERY easy to do. I was barely tightening the screws before part of the mount chipped off. Pros: - Lightweight - Small - Durable - Comes with multiple mounts for many uses - Affordable - Versatile Cons: - Mounts are made pretty cheap - A lot of flickering in video - Only records in 720p and not in 1080p

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good HD helmet cam!
*by M***0 on February 27, 2013*

I mounted it to my helmet per instructions, mount held secure at 65 mph. Movie files are saved to .mov which is a quicktime format. The files play smoothly on my pc, but are jerky on my Galaxy Tab (probably the fault of the android player). Very small, very light camera, but takes big video in hi-def! Very pleased with purchase. I tried it in low-light, household light, and daylight conditions; and the camera adapts quickly and automatically. I plan to use the cam on a 2-day ride in March, and a 3-day ride in April. The battery uses a usb connect to charge; I'll be using my Galaxy Tab to recharge it while stopped at the campground. For $150 you can't go wrong. The small size makes for less wind resistance than a GoPro cam, a major consideration for me. UPDATE 3/26/13: If you record at highway speed, playback is not smooth, even with a class 10 micro SD card. I'm guessing the camera's processor just can't transfer all the data as fast as it needs to. Resolution is great however. I am curious how a similarly priced GoPro camera would compare in smoothness.
