I've just got a Panasonic SDR-S10, £180 on Amazon. This is water resistant and shockproofed and records in three quality settings giving 25min/50min/1hr40min on a 2GB SD card. It also has image stabalisation. I've only used it mounted onto the bike but I'm looking to mount it on my helmet next as it only weighs 204 grams ready to go (31mmx63mmx114mm). This is my first attempt with it on my XT.

The vibration is the way I mounted it rather than the camera. On my helmet it should be fine. The mic is right at the front and although there is an anti-wind noise setting it's quite bad at speed. I've made a foam cover for it.
Once the weather gets a bit more friendly I'll try "take two"
