The Oregon Scientific HD All Terrain Video Action Camera ($300), things have progressed a little since that time. This helmet-ready, waterproof HD camcorder can catch 1080p video at 30fps or 720p video at 60fps, and features microSD card storage, a G-Sensor to record the G-force levels while recording, HDMI output, a 1.5-inch LCD, a 135 degree field of view, and a laser pointer for some odd reason. All of that, and no heavy VCR backpack required.
