Hi everyone I’m thinking of buying a camera to wear while riding but I’ve no idea which one.
Helmet or chest mounted which is best?
Has anyone got any recommendations thanks ?
 
I use both - two clip on cameras front and back on a vest made for such things (hi viz safety camera vest by vbandz) and a head cam. Because sometimes one or two of the cameras can fail to record and the last time this happened was when a really nasty tractor driver decided to tailgate my two frightened horses & riders and one rider had a rear facing camera on which failed so I couldn't report the b*****d to the police. So me and my fellow riders now wear backup cameras.
 
I have two from Amazon. They come with various fitting so can go on your hat, chest or arms. I only have two as the first one went all fuzzy, so they sent another. Both work fine now! I put it down to the cold weather. You need to buy a separate SD card though.
 
I use a UHWK. I like it because it is very small and just sits on the peak of my hat. The downside is the battery only lasts 90mins.1571582024070914.jpg

I use Boblov clip ons each with a 64Gb card bought separately. They have lasted a year now although they're pretty cheap and I didn't expect them to. Just remember to reformat the card instead of deleting the videos. Occasionally the cameras 'hang' but there is a reset button. The battery life is pretty good too ( i get at least 2 hours - 3 hours). Here's a pic from a boblov (actual image is clearer and larger but I had to crop and use a poorer quality file type to get on H&H!)
