A Camera From The Company That Started The Helmet Camera Industry

V.I.O. is the leading wearable video innovator being the first company to manufacture helmet camera systems to capture hands free video content. V.I.O. camera systems have been sold in more than 60 countries. Their cameras are being used by commercial, and recreational sports enthusiasts as well as the military, law enforcement, security sectors. VIO's are frequently used in the filming of major television productions.

Rugged Enough To Tackle The Toughest Sports

The Vio Pov 1.5 is custom designed for sports. You can tell the moment you open the sexy black case that this camera is built like a military device to handle any weather condition.

The cables are thick and solid, the camera head is made of metal, the recording unit is like a solid black plastic handle. No wonder the pros use it. Compare this to a flimsy consumer digicam. Which one do you feel confident using when flying around moguls or mounting on your dirt bike?

Did we mention the camera is fully water resistant, dustproof and shock proof to handle the same hazardous environments you play in? Shoot in the snow, shoot in water, shoot in the desert, shoot on a boat or car. The vio pov camera can take it!

Distinctive Wide Angle Lens To Record All You See

A wide angle lens is needed for action videography to encompass a wider visible area. Why is this important? A wider field of view makes the captured video much more immersive and puts the viewer "in the action".

Most other digital video cameras only give you a 60 to 75 degree angle of view on the widest setting. The Vio Pov 1.5 cam has a super wide 110 degree angle capture area so nothing gets cut off the edges.

Stand out from the rest of the crowd. The distinctive Iron Man red camera head tells the world you are shooting with a Vio Pov camera, the best in the world.

High Quality Video Recording

Recording at up to DVD quality 720 x 480 resolution at 30fps makes the Vio Pov 1.5 one of the highest video quality helmet cams around. You have options to shoot at lower frame rates and lower resolutions too. See the specs tab. With Support for up to 8GB SDHC memory cards, the Pov 1.5 can shoot up to 6 hours of DVD video at a time!

Shoot Safely Without Distractions

Never worry about the hazards of shooting with cheap consumer hand held video cameras that require constant adjusting. Shooting dangerous fast-paced action sports threaten athletes who have to fiddle with their on camera controls during the scene. The ergonomic hands free design of the pov 1.5 means you mount the camera and shoot hands free leading to much safer operation. Leave your hands for more important things like hanging onto your gear!

Ultra Stable Modular Star Mounting System

A strong and stable mount is critical for all point of view cameras. The POV 1.5's innovative new "star mounting" system is totally unique in the pov cam industry. The special shape is flexible enough to fit onto any surface. Six powerful magnets are provided where three fit into each arm of the star mount; this creates a firm stable mount for securing to any metalic surface and keeps the wind resistance of the pov cam to a minimum.

It can mount to anything, even a baseball cap! Place the other three magnets on the inside of the surface and then let the magnets meet and stick - this is extremely strong and the pov 1.5 cam will never slip off.

Everything You Need Is Included

The Vio Pov 1.5 is the most comprehensive package of all POV cameras. That is why it is considered the Cadillac of all point of view cameras. Some manufacturers skimp with mounting options, fail to include memory cards or don't include batteries. None come with a carrying case.

On the other hand, generous quantities of extra tie straps, velcro strips and a hook and loop mount are all part of the Vio Pov 1.5 package.

The Pov 1.5 comes with everything you need neatly strapped together in a handy professional carrying case with a handle. You can bring it straight to the field and start shooting as soon as you recieve the package from us.

Point of view helmet cams used to be more about convenience than video quality. You could easily mount the camera anywhere but the main drawback was low resolution videos that barely had enough resolution for Youtube. The high rez cameras that were available cost about $2500 dollars!

The VholdR ContourHD changes all that. Now you get the ultra convenience of a small, light, easy to mount camera AND amazing high resolution video.

Amazing, Super Sharp Video Quality

The previous VholdR had a maximum resolution of 640x480, the NEW VholdR ContourHD puts out a jaw dropping 1280 x 720 at 30 FPS for ultra sharp, high detail images! You ALSO get DVD quality high action mode that shoots at 848x480 at 60 FPS for super smooth fast action recording.

Ultra Wide Angle Lens To Capture ALL the Action

One big feature of the VholdR ContourHD camera is the built in ultra wide angle lens. Action sports require a wide angle lens to capture more of scene so viewers get that immersive sense of being "right in the action". This is especially important when recording high speed action.

Most regular digital cameras only give you a 60 to 75 degree angle of view on the widest angle. The VholdR ContourHD has improved on their previous camera with new, whopping 135º wide angle lens! This is wide enought to put everything in the frame but not so wide that it distorts the landscape.

Great Value For A Specialized Camera With So Many Features The VholdR ContourHD point of view camera is small, lightweight, waterproof, wireless and easily mounts to sports gear or any surface. It is one of the best price vs features deal for a helmet camera!

Ultimate In Usability - Custom Made For Action Sports

When you're in the middle of the action the last thing you want is a big, bulky camera dragging you down. The Vholdr contourHD is one of the lightest, most rugged, easiest mounting POV (point of view) camera available.

Weighing a measly 4 ounces, you won't even remember you're wearing the Vholdr.

Housed in a tough, black aluminum enclosure, the Vholdr is not some fragile consumer cam that shatters into tiny plastic pieces if you drop it. The Vholdr ContourHD is also water resistant so shooting in bad weather is not a problem. Try doing that with a regular video camera.

Auto Laser Leveling

The Vholdr ContourHD uses dual lasers on the front lens housing to pinpoint subject location and camera shooting level. VholdR takes care of all the camera parameters so you don't have to; leaving you to focus on your sports not fiddling with camera controls.

Patented Quick and Easy Mounting System

Fast and easy camera hook up is not an option for action sports cameras. You need to mount the camera quickly, easily and just go, not mess around with complicated mounting systems.

With the Vholdr's patented TRail mount system, rails on the side allow you to quickly slide and lock the camera into place. It's that easy! Slide, wait for the "click" that tells you the Vholdr is locked and you're ready to go!

With numerous mounting options for flat surfaces, goggles, helmets and handlebars you never have to worry about finding a mount to fit your needs. VholdR’s mounting options are designed to give you the flexibility to capture video in ways even we haven’t predicted.

High Frame Rate For High Action Recording

Exclusive to the VholdR ContourHD is the high action 60 frames per second recording mode designed for capturing high speed action. Videos at 60 fps look much more smoother and less "jittery" when recording high speed action.

One Button Recording & Focusing

VholdR Contour HD is one of the easiest to use helmet cams around. No knobs, dials or messing with menus like a regular video camera when you are using the VholdR!

One giant record button on top makes it easy to stop and start recording even with heavy ski gloves on.
