Hello. About Helmet Camera first model, i used t for about year, only one issue i faced is memory card needed to be fast, i did try to use Sandisk Ultra, but sometimes camera didn't recorded at all, changed to Sandisk Extreme, and never ever had issues again. Wide angle 155 degree is MUST for me, so first model was just nailed everything except low light capability, sound, and waterproofing. Don't get me wrong, for that price it was perfect. Helmet Camera2: using it about 4+ months. It is great again, RunCam team listens and improve their cameras for sure. What i like about it is fixed sound, it isn't much, but no loud white noise that first version had. The exterior feels professional and firm. The mounts now was fixed and fitted click and go. Low light is just another level. You can't compare even to Dji Osmo, it is much brighter. On fool moon you can see the walk pretty clearly with HelmetCam2. The issues i faced: Angle. It is MUCH narrower compared to first version, and this is reason i do not like this cam. Most of time i can't see the upper or lower angle of action. It is just too much zoomed, and i change it to first version but get back just because it have too good low light. Next is Power on button - on first version it was much firmer, the 2 version button is soft, i accidentally turned it on several time. But as long as it runs 18650 batteries, it is no issue. :D Next is memory card rubber guard. Almost every day on branches walk it opens. Sd card is firmly stays on slot and losing sd is nearly impossible, but as rubber opens the LED blinker again turns into problem. :D Tape fixes this, or cutting off the big rubber finger opener do it permanent. So for me, if i could get Wide 155 angle lens to second version of cam, i would still have perfect camera. Now i will wait for version 3 with hope for it.

The video and sound is great. The run time for the battery was excellent. Only problem was the mounting bracket for the helmet didn’t lock which caused me to lose the camera for an hour. But the camera held up and worked perfectly.

I use this for cycling at night. This is the only action camera I could find that will record clearly at night, with similar performance to a high end dash cam. A GoPro at night is practically useless. Amazing value for the money when you consider what you get. The 18650 removable battery is a great design choice. The only downside I have is the lack of wind noise suppression which is not an issue if you are using this for airsoft / paintball / etc.

I found this to be a massive leap. forward for runcam. the video quality is a world better. the sounds clearer without that irritating hum. my only quibble is the new mounting system is over complicated and not as secure as the old one. my biggest disappointment is it's still difficult to get it to connect to the app.

The image quality is outstanding, offering sharp resolution and excellent contrast that ensure clear and detailed visuals.

Additionally, the Helmet CAM 2 has seen significant improvements in its build materials, ensuring durability and comfort.

In summary, the Helmet CAM 2 by RunCam delivers an unparalleled combination of high-quality visuals, clear audio, and user-friendly functionality, making it a top choice for anyone looking to capture their adventures.

I just got this camera and love it already. The camera quality is great, and the bluetooth remote and app work smoothly. I love the 18650 batteries - much cheaper and easier to charge than proprietary batteries competitors use. The value for price this camera provides cannot be beat in the action camera market.
