vs the ATC9K from Oregon Scientific:

lots of ways to skin a cat.

Biggest issues with on-board cameras are the following:

Operation - How easy are they to use? Can you get it working after you're strapped in? Can a crew member start the recording for you without a full training seminar?

Mounting - does it use a standard 1/4" mounting hole or is it some strange proprietary solution? Either way, are the available mounting solutions stable or durable?

Noise - How well does the microphone work? Is there an option for an external mic?

Storage - does it use a standard media format? SD? XD? CF?

Run time - how long do the batteries last? What kind of batteries are they?

Picture quality - does 1080P really make a difference with in-car footage? If so, what is the viewing angle of the camera?
