Summary: Was quite surprised!
Comment: We purchased this camera soon after we bought our canoe. Using some conduit hanger for electrical wires, I rigged up a bracket to mount the camera to and it works great. We just wanted something to capture our leisure paddle down the river. By no means is it super high quality, however it's great to share with family...also great for Youtube videos. I do wish you could use a larger capacity card, and the battery life could be a little better, however overall I'm super happy with it.
One thing I should note is that the audio is virtually worthless. Our camera captures virtually no sounds. We had no intentions to use the sound so it's not a big deal for us...if I remember, I disable the sound thinking I may get a little more battery life. We're heading to Hawaii in a few weeks and can't wait to try it out there!
When we bought it (September 2009), it was $50....definitely worth this price! I dunno if I would've pulled the trigger if was the $70 it's currently listed as, however I would've been equally happy if I would've.

Summary: Great value ATC2K
Comment: I got this camera to video my commuting, after becoming sick and tired of stupid drivers doing stupid, unnecessary things that endanger my life. The camera works well, it's solid and easy to use. I mount it to the side of my helmet, so that the camera records what I am looking at. On max resolution I get just under 30mins record time on the 1Gb card (you can half the resolution and double the record time, or use a 2Gb card to achieve the same thing on max resolution). Max resolution is not enough to resolve a license plate from more than 8-10 meters away, so I shout out the license plate (of an offending car) and it is recorded for later use (showing the police and filing traffic violations, for example). The sound is, as others have noted, rather dominated by wind noise. This can be fixed to a point, by using some foam covering to reduce the wind noise: just like you see on a pilot's microphone, tv recording microphones, etc, etc. The camera adjusts well from light to dark, I've seen other reviewers complain about its response when going from Sun to shade but I've had no problems. I'd recommend this camera, just bear in mind: you get what you pay. This camera is cheap and worth the money. If you want an awesome camera, pay $300-$400 and get an awesome camera. If you want a camera that is fully functional at a good price, get the ATC2K.

Summary: Not a good choice
Comment: I couldn't get it to work right out of the box. Tried different sets of new battaries and outside of a brief flicker in the menu screen, nothing. The camera looked substantial and would have been perfect for what I wanted it for...to mount on a boat grab rail...but since it didn't work right out of the box I sent it back.
Maybe I just got a bad one. All of them can't be non functional right out of the box. At least Amazon was quick in taking it back and crediting my account.

Summary: Reasonable "Action" Cam for a low price
Comment: Yes there is no viewfinder, yes the buttons are hard to press, yes the waterproof mic makes it sound like you're underwater even when you're not, and yes the quality is not stellar, but, let's be clear, this is an inexpensive waterproof video camera that can take some abuse and keep working. I've dropped it into pools, strapped it to scooters, and tossed it around and it still works. I haven't had it that long, but it records video just fine. Low light videos are not good. And when it makes the transfer from underwater to above, make sure there aren't big drops stuck on the lens or it'll distort your video.
Overall, it's a fine camera for the price, the only reason I can't give it 5 stars is because, well, yeah, the video quality is not great. But the piece of mind knowing that you can record yourself doing crazy things and not worry about the camera getting hurt is great!

Summary: Perfect video camera for people on a low budget for these things!!
Comment: I was blown out of the water by the speed of the shipping. Then I used the camera for ATVing and I think I just about died when I saw how good it kept up with the speed!! I recomend this to anyone who wants an inexpensive but very reliable camera. The only downside I can come up with is it does not like to be in near dark areas or pointed at light. Other than that, I enjoy this camera more than anything else.
