Muvi Atom

I have been for a couple of cycle rides with some friends, which has given me the chance to try out my new gadget, namely the Muvi Atom Digital Video Recorder. Apparently it is the smallest video camera in the world.

The version I bought came with a ‘sports kit’ which enables it to be mounted almost anywhere. Ski goggles, helmet, handlebars. If these fittings are not good enough it is small and light enough to allow one to velcro/gaffer tape it to your desired object.Indeed it is teeny tiny. The quality is great although I am aggrieved that I didn’t read the specifications more closely because the battery only lasts around an hour. This is annoying if like me your commute is closer to two hours. I purchased a 8gb class 6 Micro SD card which is a must if you wish to avoid dropped frame and jerky playback. 8GB also gives you ample space.

Anyway I have put together a sample video using nothing more exotic than Windows Movie Maker. Enjoy!
