 Very Pleased November 28, 2008
I like to take video of all my trips and give them to family or to the people that go with us. I put this on my Harley and took video of my last motorcycle trip. It worked out great. There is a $500 dollar version that someone makes that has more bells and whistles (i.e. like playing back what you've done) but for the money this was an excellent buy and meets my needs perfectly.
Very durable, easy controls, poor sound October 27, 2008

I mounted this camera both on my helmet and my mountain bike and took it on some singletrack adventures. I had several wipeouts where I landed on the camera or the camera directly hit the ground, and it continues to work great! Since it is waterproof as well as shock-resistant, there are no microphone openings, which means that the sound quality is very poor. I just disabled the audio.
Overall - I was very impressed with the durability, ease of use, and all of the mounting hardware that it comes with.

I'm very pleased with the accessories which come with this cam. the quality of the images are on a good base, sound is not really fine, but it's a action cam, not a digital mic. overall i'm happy with it, reasonable price for this item.

The ATC 3K takes video about the same quality as a high-end cell phone but the sound is garbled, whiny and non-usable. There must be some kind of membrane protecting the microphone in order to work under water and I assume that is the reason for the terrible sound. It is well worth the money and I am happy I bought it but I wouldn't recommend it for important videos--only "just-for-fun" videos. I took it camping and enjoyed the peace of mind from not worrying if it got a little damp or jarred. People might be surprised there is NO viewfinder for aiming--you just aim and hope for the best but the wide angle lens makes that fairly easy to do. I gave it 4 stars because I got what I paid for but I do wish they would stress to people before buying it just how bad the sound is.
Good video - user interface could be improved September 4, 2008

I bought this primarily to be used as a car dash camera.
I attached the helmet mounting bracket to my dashboard and record my commute to and from work each day.
The video is as good as you would see on cops or other police video shows, actually better than some.
There are only 3 buttons for the user interface, on/off, camera, and menu. The menu options I still haven't figured out.
But for the most part, you turn it on, start/stop the video, and that's it.
The device is waterproof and I plan to use it scuba diving and kayaking.
Its a very cool video recorder - very compact, comes with numerous mounting options, and records really good video.
AA batteries last about 4 hours. Rechargeable AA's last around 3 hours. A 4 GB memory card provides around 2 hours of video.
If the user interface was a little more intuitive, I would have easily given this 5 stars.
