Go to solution Solved by soup,

I have an SJ4000 bought via Amazon (basically it is a GoPro knockoff) hasn't got the features of a GoPro but then it is half to a fifth the price, all GoPro accesories seem to fit .

I have it on a bicycle but the box shows it being used by a skier, a chap on a motorbike and a rock climber so I would imagine it is perfectly capable of working on a snowboard.

  I have uploaded a few videos on to youtube, so you can see the sort of results you get.  I am cheezsoup.(Some bridges over the Almond, East Calder to Uphall station,Missing part of Almond bridges, Wrong bike etc etc )

NOTE :- I have a few lego/K'NEX ones on there they were shot by an old digicamera thing the ones I am talking about are those on a bike.

SECONDARY NOTE :- You tube tend to compress videos to buggery and defaults to 360p so possibly up the resolution a bit if your connection can handle it.

 

 

 


One thing I did notice was he says you cannot "flip" the video.  Must have been an earlier model than mine as there is (in mine anyway) a "rotate" function which "flips" the video so you can use the camera upside down but "flip" the video without a computer.
