Bullet Camera + Mount

[SnapAttack]

Just picked up a used JVC GR-D290U MiniDV to start recording some of my rides. I would rather not go with a tank mount system as I have a dark screen and don't want to buy another just to film. I am looking for a bullet lens and mount that will "plug and play" with this camera. I found this http://www.chasecam.com/bulletcam.htm but hits the pocket book a little hard. I do like the idea (i think) of the suction mount so I can place it on the fairing or helmet.

Any low cost solutions or ideas out there?

Thanks.

I can get the lipstick cams from 129 to over 300 depending on what all you want. I have a used one I can let go for around 100 if you like. It can either be hard wired to power or run off a 9 volt battery.

Let me know.

Not going this route but watch the vid... I'm thinking about how lame the dirt ride is and it then it switches to sportbike and records rearview crash...

Their prices are way too high. I pay $50 for 420 scan line bullets and they want $175 for 380. I'm looking for higher resolution bullets than I ran this year, but I may just stick with the 420 scan lines for one more year since I still have a few of them laying around. You should be able to find 520 scan line bullet cams in the $150 range fairly easily.

Make sure that your camcorder has the correct input connections. I have 2 digital camcorders at the house that I don't use anymore because they do not accept AV in, which most bullets cams are using.
