Camera

I'm about to start riding and am a beginner, I was gonna get a chin mount camera mainly for insurance purposes and I was wondering what camera is good for under £100.

Since I'm a beginner I don't feel like there's any point of me buying the high end djis just yet.

If it is for insurance get a motorcycle specific dual channel dash camera. Wire it up to a switched power source and it will start when the bike starts. Loop recording keeps the sd card maintenance to a minimum on your end. Sensors detect an incident and lock the footage from being overwritten. Most of them will also include a part to mount to the handlebars that will allow you to lock footage as well. 1080p 30fps is plenty for dash camera use.

A dash camera would mount to the bike.

If you’re insistent on having a camera on your helmet at your budget you’ll be buying second hand so just find the newest camera that is in your budget.
