Product Information

V.I.O.'s POV.1.5 Digital Helmet Camera System builds off the company's POV.1 system, providing you with enhanced options. Just like the original helmet cam, the 1.5 gives you user-friendly, hands-free recording, whether you're on your bike or climbing up the side of a mountain. Simply attach the compact and colorful imaging head to your helmet, handlebars, or other equipment, and place the recording unit, with 2" LCD, on your pack, belt, vest, or some other likely place. Only one hand is needed to start the camera. Once recording is underway, both hands are free to get you where you need to go or perform whatever maneuvers are suited to the task. Because the 1.5 features a waterproof, dustproof, and shock-resistant design, you can attach it to your boat, vehicle or firearm without worry.

The camera's imaging head captures 720 x 480 resolution video at 30fps with a 110° view, giving you a truly accurate and expansive wide angle view of your experience.

The wrist mountable remote is inconspicuous, and features a 10' range for controlling what you record and when. Aside from the linear recording style of the camera's CLIP mode, you can also tag and save video segments during or after the action, using the LOOP mode. When the day's over, the easy-to-use software helps you edit and upload your video for emailing to friends and family. It's also important to note that the POV.1.5M features an upgraded SD card slot can hold cards up to 8GB in size. To get you started there's a 4GB SD card included with the camera. The camera can capture up to 48 minutes of video per 1GB.
