Tachyon BikerCam

[jwulf74]

Has anyone tried the Tachyon Bikercam? Looks like a viable competitor to the GoPro but I only stumbled on them on the net and haven't heard anything about them...

I hadn't heard of Tachyon Bikercam either.
I've been thinking of getting a GoPro Hero 3+ but at half the price the Tachyon Bikercam might be something to look at.
Thanks for the post! :thumbup:

YouTube review

I ended up springing for the VIRB Elite by Garmin

Thanks.. I just heard about the Garmin one. Need to look into that one too. Basically I want a good one but at less cost that the GoPro. If the quality isn't there, I may still end up with the GoPro though. They do seem to be the "Apple" of the action camera.

Here is a short video taken at night with the VIRB Elite at our last Christmas Parade. Camera is mounted on the dash behind the windshield of my Spyder

I've tried a couple cheapies. Do yourself a flavor. Just buy a GoPro or Contour. I use a GoPro stationary, Contour HD helmet mounted and a Kodak for hand held shots.

I believe Contour is out of business.

Apparently so.

Kinda sucks. I think it shoots better quality video then the GP. Audio on the other hand sucks.
