What are the dimesions and weight of this camera. For $80.00 this takes pretty decent pictures IMHO.
And it's half the retail price than listed at Midland.

Im glad I got it, I do whant a gopro 2 ,but for now this will do ,
We can just call it a poorman GoPo 2 :applause:
But I can not edit the file, its a mp4 so im stuck showing the raw flight ,
Not that I know or do much editing , I just will have to use youtube for my needs on that .

Yeah- I'm in the same boat.
But it's the same boat you'll be in when you pop for the GoPro- it also records and stores into mp4 format

well I got out and made my way half way up Rattlesnake MT in Wa,"usa"

It was over cast , but I got to see just how well the XTC200VP3 by midland
would do , and how far it would see.
So here is a 6 min vid the sd card was full so it just stops.Just befor the landing
or flip ....

I think it looks great for the money. Doesn't blow out and darken everything when the sun is in the picture and seems pretty steady. I used a Contour HD which seems to be about the same size but cost a fair amount more and to be honest I'm not so sure it looks twice to three times as good! Regarding editing, if you're a Windows man, have a look at MS Windows Live Movie Maker (it's free) and see how you go with that.

Yes I do, I was trying to inverted "S" loop and I was to low , Just 2feet higher and i would have bean ok :)
Vancouver,Wa is nice I have bean there a few times.

But the cam is OK , its good to go not the super cup :)
