Hi, I've used the 2nd one to great success.

is a quick demo.

One thing is to check the mp of the CMOS some are 5mp some are 12mp, mines a 12mp and it makes a big diff to the amount of light and quality of the image. I've used it in December in the woods with reasonable results.

I got mine from Amazon here

Honestly I have 7 ebay cameras, all relegated to my shelf after a days play and disappointed footage when I get home, I now run a hero 3 and a hero 2, worth every penny. Though I wish it wasn't so expensive, mind you saying that go pro has released their £99 camera now too, effectively an upgraded hero 2, worth a look!

i use the Chilli action cam3 hd only 720p but its good for £50

i am slowly leaning towards the contour roam. GoPros are an option but i'm not a fan of the box shape, i find the bullet/tube shapes looks better and easier to mount

I've got a Roam2 and I love it! Much more subtle than a GoPro and Contour support paintball as an activity for their cameras

Here is some footage of the pump day GeeTee arranged at campaign. Taken on a bullet style hd cam (HD 12mp CMOS as linked above). This was a few weeks ago with low sun but the light was still good.

For the next games I'm moving the camera mounting as I did not expect the hopper to be "in shot" quite so much, but its all a learning curve.

Regards,
Colin.

i realy wish i could have made that day...

my action cams are getting temperamental and i want to replace them with new cameras.

i have had a thought... do you think that because im using the biggest memory cards & unbranded ones???


when i compair the footage quality my old ones are ok for a 1MP cmos sensor @720p@25fps... but it could be better

gopro would be the best pick, but it would be the most expensive too i guess
