Is the HD versions what you get when you watch on the computer or tv? I've put off buying a helmet cam due to their grainy, pixelated vids. That and I didn't want to spend huge to get quality but this set-up looks to fill the bill. I'm in.Any word on shipping?The VholdR records in AVI not HD, but it is simple to convert it over to any format that you wish including and not limited to HD. There is only one kind of HD so when you watch an HD video, it is the same as if you were on your tv watching an HD channel. If you have anymore questions, I have an answer.

Hey, just curious on this, when you say you convert this to HD I think the resolution of this device is 640x480, are you upconverting through software of some sort? I have Vegas Video and i know it lets me import and render with all different file types and resolutions, but just curious which program you use to convert it to the best resolution possible? I'm no expert at the resolutions, hoping you can help!Thanks,David
I don't have my vHoldr yet, but you are correct in that the camera only records at 640x480 30fps; which is not HD resolution. Most (if not all) video editing software will allow you to choose what the final output resolution is, so you could chose an HD resolution (1280x720 and up). But the results from a 640x480 source may have a lot of pixelation and not ideal. If your plan is to just upload videos to YouTube sticking with the native resolution would be just fine. If, however, you're planning on putting the videos on DVD and watching them on a HDTV I'd still recommend encoding at 640x480 and allow the built-in scaler on the HDTV handle the upconversion.Personally I use Windows Movie Maker (since it's free ) and have had good results. Hope this helps.
