    Contour camera review

    I picked up a contour camera at the PX today...they had the Roam model for $100, and the Roam 2 for $190. I picked the 2 because it will record 60fps.

    I built a quick mount for it, took it out back and shot it, and I am very pleased. I was able to turn off the beeps in the settings, and I can operate the record switch with my pinkie while holding the bow. Completely silent.

    I think it does great in low light...I was able to see the target clearly in life but can't really see it on the video, so it might need some adjustment or video editing.

    This video is done at 720p, 60fps, no editing and no stabilization. Please be sure to change the quality to 720 HD on youtube before watching!

    I think this camera is WELL worth the money, I like it more than the gopro, and can't wait to hunt with it!

      Hawglite makes a mount that works great for it if yours doesn't hold up. I can't find the pic right now but will post it if I do.

ID:	24170277Well I know I've got a better pic, as this was just the prototype, but I can't find it. Maybe KellyG can post one. It is thinner, and mounts to virtually any bow riser. Called the Hawg-I.

          I'd be upset if that 1/8 steel didn't hold up lol
