im gonna suggest that you cut up an old Bolle lens or something storong and make a protective cover for the actual lens itself in case of stray BB's. Wouldnt be good to spend all that cash and have it get shot on day 1.

my archos has a helmet cam accessory that records at DVD resolution

. the best thing is that it fits into a PEG laser/battery box perfectly. i just use a thick piece of plexiglass in front of the lens. plus, the added "cool" effect of having a kill-cam on your gun is just sweet.

you know thats not a bad idea. i had an incident where i JUST got an rds for my xm8, the day i used it, half way through - "what the hell? my lens got shot out, how the fuck did that happen!?"

swatt13 · October 30th, 2006, 20:24

i'll see if i can put some pics of my PEG-cam up after work tomorrow. although this setup cost me about $600 total for the archos 604, camera and box lol. thank god i use the player for music and video as well ahahah!

tat-
what all did you get with your 604 (in the box) data cable, av cables, charger?

i want to transfer these right to my computer to burn them to dvd and post them on my website, do i get everything i need to do so?

aslo with the 604, does it do everything the 500 does, ie plug it into the tv and record stuff, transfer pics and vids from the comp to the 604. play mp3s ect?

One thing to consider is it will make your life alot easier if your recorder accepts LANC and you get a remote LANC controller for your camera. If its buried in foam in a buttpack like mine or on your back anywhere it is almost a necessity unless you want to depend on someone else that knows what they are doing 100% of the time you want to start/stop recording. The tradeoff to the LANC remote is that your recorder can be placed where you can get to it easily yourself but will probably be exposed to more trauma on your chest, side or front beltline, etc. Also you will be recording everything till the tape runs out = alot of wasted tape, battery power and editing.

The place we bought our cams from sells a seriously strong housing with lens protector for cheap if you get the package.

well i ordered the archos 604 with the bullit cam attatchment which has the lanc feature (rec/stop button) when i get it, ill post my opinion along with some vids so anyone else can decide if it is what they want.

Just an FYI. Only difference between the Archos 604's and the 500's is that the 500's has a built in audio recorder (ie: mic). Otherwise, they're the same thing. I'd say, go with whatever is cheaper. The 604 does apparently have easier to use buttons also.
