eBay Hong Kong ACT 20 720p 120 degree helmet camera - sample footage Tube. Duration : 6.93 Mins.


Some sample footage from the ACT 20 720p (120 degree wide angle version) as found on eBay from as little as £46... Apologies for this sound going completely out of sync by the end, this is an artefact of my editing software and not a problem with the camera.

If you require some examples of footage directly taken from the camera then send me a message on here. The footage in this clip is edited together using "copy" mode from the original videos which means the video has NOT been subjected to re-compression before being uploaded to YouTube. It has just been concatenated together... www.ebay.co.uk PS. To set the time and date on this camera. Create file "time.txt" in the root of the microSD card (ie where the config file and ACT20 directory are found). In this file set the time to something like a couple of minutes in the future like this 2012-03-04 21:30:00 Save this. About ten seconds before the time arrive, safely unmount / "eject" the drive from your operating system, disconnect the USB cable and press and hold the button to power off. Power straight back ...
