There are two reasons I don't participate in extreme sports: I don't have the time to learn them, and I have the physical coordination of a tranquilized monkey. Because my face and the pavement do not mix, I've had to turn to alternative forms of entertainment. If I were to suddenly become a daredevil, though, I'd want to record my escapades with the ATC-2000 Action Helmet Camera from Oregon Scientific.

The ATC-2000 is shock resistant and waterproof; mounts easily on most helmets, bikes and most other sports equipment; and plugs directly into a television for instant replays of your extreme adventures. It supports 640-by-480 VGA at 30 frames per second and includes 32 MB of internal memory, which you can expand with the build-in SD drive. Upload the video to your PC via USB and you can edit the action and add special effects with the Action Lab software that's included.

Buy the hands-free ATC-2000 Action Helmet Camera as a gift for the extreme sports participant in your life and let them record the joy of receiving broken bones (at least in my case) for $129.99.

Dear ATC-2K users,

Thank you for your reviews and comments on the ATC-2K, they are extremely valuable to us. We would like to answer a few of your questions and give some more specifics about the ATC-2K action camera through this statement.

· ATC-2K can accept SD cards 8MB to 2GB. We recommend SanDisk SD cards and AData SD cards.

· Please ensure you insert your SD card with connect terminals facing up. This means, with the LCD screen facing you turn your SD card label side down/terminals up and insert it.

· The SD card must be formatted to FAT(FAT16).

· Ensure your camera is switched off before inserting/removing the SD card or batteries.

· We recommend users familiarize themselves with the button positions and sounds when pressed.

· The ATC-2K is waterproof to 3m/10ft. Please ensure the O-rings have been properly greased.

· The ATC-2K is intended for use with extreme sports. We have deliberately designed the ATC-2K with this purpose in mind and thus have made the microphone less sensitive. Through research and experience we have found that users would rather add their own music or commentary after their activity as opposed to trying to commentate live.

· The ATC-2K uses 2 x AA Alkaline batteries however; we advise that users change to Lithium batteries during cold weather usage for longer recording time. We have a Cold Weather Pouch for the ATC-2K camera for use in cold weather. Please check our website for availability.

For troubleshooting please refer to the manual.

You are welcome to send any further comments to atc@oregonscientific.com

Best Regards,

ATC support team.
