I know this has been discussed previously , but new season, need products and all that.
So; what cameras are you guys using, what's best value etc.
There's no right or wrong. Just seeking advice.
Thanks.

Not my Sony phone camera.
I'm sitting in a Spanish bar quaffing iced rioja and I can't get the panoramic function to work.
Everyone is a blur.
Suggest you try another brand.

Hang on before you buy the Go pro. I have the Sony action cam AV100. it is simply superb and a better shape for a bike. I use it snorkelling, skiing and every trip on the bike, John lewis do a free five year guarantee too.

Sony,s have "Stability control" so in my view far superior. I have mine now mounted just inside my screen on the Tiger and its great. I just record each trip and then delete etc. A quality bit of kit.
