Budget Helmet or Bar Camera
I am considering a camera to record rides for fun and safety.
I am generally a cheapskate and see some cameras on scambay that are in the $30-$75 price range.
I am not savvy enough to know if these are reliable or junk.
Any suggestions?? I am hoping to keep the budget under $100, although willing to go a little higher if it means a much better camera.

I have been using a sunglass video camera from eBay all summer. Under seven dollars, a micro USB card for nine dollars and you are up and running. An example: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=9HrBlJgfXtg . Only problem is wearing dark glasses on a dark day.
