Intro:

We've compared the X170, ATC5K and ContourHD 720 here because we realise that deiciding between the various helmet cameras on the market can be confusing at times especially since all the info scattered about. Below you'll find a table showing the differences between what we have found to be the best selling action cameras within this particular price range.

Drift Innovation's X170 Action Camera is the most recent of these to become available in November 2009, since its launch the Drift X170 has proven to be seriously great value for money as it combines all the best features of other cameras into a singel all-in-one helmet cam, and the price isn't going to break the bank either.

The ATC5K is Oregon Scientific's upgrade of the very popular ATC3K action cam. The ATC3K was a pioneer of its time and, in its day, was the top selling sports camera world-wide. Have a look below to see what you think of its big brother the ATC5K.

The Contour HD is the only high definition helmet cam included in this comparison. The reason for its inclusion here is because it is the lowest priced HD action cam available now so it is interesting to compare this to the two standard def cameras to see if paying the extra amount for the HD video is actually worth it when considering all the other features included with the otheres.

Enjoy browsing through this comparison to see which of these would be the best one for you...
