Hi, been looking online all night and still none the wiser so thought I'd ask here.
I'm looking for an action cam, that can mount onto a motorcycle helmet etc or be used for other things as well.
Good battery life, good MP. Basically which would people say is the best to get for £50 or under please? I know a lot go for the GoPro ones but doubt there's any good ones under £50.
I'm looking mainly on Amazon but there's so many I'm still confused.

The Mobius is good. I have been using it for a year but it currently costs £55 (US$68).
See review http://www.techmoan.com/blog/2013/7/8/the-mobius-camera-the-do-it-all-mount-anywhere-1080p-micro-c.html
and where you can get it http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mobius-ActionCam-Full-HD-Sports-Camera-1080P-30FPS-720P-60FPS-Pocket-Camcorder-/1510718913060 -
You should be able to find a SJ4000 for under £50.
I have a "Kaiser Baas X100" (really good camera) for sale if you are interested. Drop me a PM.I don't like morning people. Or mornings. Or people.0 -
I recently bought this one and I think its great for the money

I have used the suction mount on the windscreen of a convertible car and also one of the other mounts to attach to the side - Unless I am missing something, you have to use the waterproof case for many of the mounts and so the sound is pretty much inaudible but I would guess that is the same with them all and not just this one.
Video quality is great.
I bought an accessory kit for £9 on Amzon and it comes with more clips and mounts than I know what to do with.
--avoid this one though --
At the same time I also bought one of these action cams that were £18 at the time and worth a punt - The link to the one I got below is absolutely shocking video quality so avoid it -video is more like 640x480 from the old days. It truly is terrible and they have offered me £5 back as a goodwill if I keep it and put up with it!
