Review: Fantastic helmet camera, long battery life and great image quality - I have had numerous cameras to try to capture my rides. They have been the typical action camera shape, which do not have really fix well to the side of a helmet. As I have a flip front helmet these cameras either attach to the front chin bar of the helmet or stick to top where my darkened drop down visor mechanism sits. This camera and its mount sits very nicely on the side of my helmet capturing my views and able to look over my windscreen. The battery life lasted an entire day's ride and I was more in danger of running out of space on the sd card. The rotatable lens meant that I could get the correct orientation for my head. I could not really feel any difference in weight and it felt secure. The microphone generates a lot of wind noise so I might end up trying the external microphone to try to capture something other than wind noise. I wish Drift would make a microphone that was on a boom for flip front cameras as the one they currently have only really suits fixed chin bar helmets. My only criticism is that the largest SD card it can take is 128gb, when an entire day's riding can take up more space when on the highest resolution and frame rate. I will by adding the bluetooth remote control as the controls are a little difficult to ensure you have set it up correctly and started recording just by touch and the beeps from the camera. I will also be changing/reducing the field of view because my first ride out captured a lot of the side of my helmet due to its position.
Review: Great little camera but.... - OK, I'm still pretty new at using this camera, as it was purchased to replace my venerable Contour 1080P HD camera that after 12+ years of use, falls, knocks and at least 3 RTC's (one of those at speed hitting a blooming deer on a bicycle!), so bare with me... First off, it was easy to fit to the lid with one of the (curved) adhesive pads, right in the centre so the fitting side was far easier than the Contour, so definitely a big tick in the positive box! Charging and initial use was again a doddle, though the lack of a decent manual is annoying, even for the navigation of the numerous setting screens...far less intuitive to set up than the Contour, which came with it's own PC based app, though saying that, other than a "Hi" or "Lo" video quality setting (set by the PC app when connected) the Drift settings can be changed without the need of physically connecting it to a PC...so a tick in both the "Good" "Not so Good" boxes. So far the video quality is pretty damn good, even when compared to the Contour, though not too sure that the frame speed is quite as high as the previous camera...the focal length is not as good, I could read the number plates from at least twice the distance away with the Contour compared to the Drift when playing back the video on the PC when using QuickTime Pro; the same when stepping through frame by frame. So while great quality of video, if you want better details and from further away, the Contour was a better camera. The audio with the built in microphone that many others have complained about, is no worse than the Contour's audio, to be honest for both of them anything beyond 4-5mph and the wind noise ensures that the recorded audio is next to useless....not quite fair you can hear sirens, horns and some road noise but that is about it, so a neutral point here. Now not too sure about the battery life/duration yet but it is far better than the Contour's, though this could just be a brand new battery, which being built in 'could' be a pain to replace if/when it starts to age - so do have to be a bit neutral on this to a degree, it does mean I don't carry 4+ spare batteries with me though a another tick in the "Good" box overall. Therefore after nearly 2 weeks of use, I'm pretty happy with the Drift Ghost but only time will tell...with my biggest gripe being no flipping manual, so I am halfway through writing my own...good practice for me as an engineer by profession!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: I am interested in this camara, but the thing that stops me buying is the mic lead that tends to be doggy, I have seen many complaints about this.**
A: Don't buy from this company.  I return a faulty camera and they have yet to replace or refund it months later. They don't respond to emails and lie about 'lost' deliveries.  I've lost £150. AVOID

**Q: Is the internal battery user-replaceable? Lithium rechargables degrade over time. This isn't mentioned anywhere.**
A: Yes it’s is very easy

**Q: Can this camera be connected to my 12v motorcycle electrics via a usb socket?  will it run continually  in video mode  whilst  connected to the 12v mo**
A: If it is connected to a power source it will run as a recorder. If it will run on a 12v connection I am not sure. (If a car socket is 12v then yes) We use ours in the car with an adapter in the cigarette socket so we can plug in the usb lead supplied with the camera. Hope this helps.

**Q: My camera is new and the lens rotates no problem but why do you want to rotate it**
A: I sometimes use mine as a dash cam in my car, I rotate the lens so that the arrow points upwards so that the recording is correctly orientated. I then rotate it back when used as an helmet cam. The rotation function enables you to ensure the orientation of the recording is correct, always make sure that the arrow is pointing upwards.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great camera for your helmet.
*by J***. on 20 June 2022*

This is a nice compact camera and takes great video footage. Took a while to find best location on helmet as I have a flip top but managed to locate a good spot and use the flat adapter. Useful to be able to twist Len’s around to find vertical and can also change focus setting. I purchased the additional mic and this didn’t work for some reason which was annoying. Also has a very long cable which is difficult to lose in a helmet! Had to send back and replace and new one and now working. Also purchased the remote. To be honest I am still in two minds with this as not easy to see on the remote if you have switched on or not and a couple of times I managed to change settings by mistake. Perhaps I will get used to it. Also comes with wrist strap but perhaps a handlebar adapter would be better. Overall so far, 3 weeks, camera has performed well and I am pleased with it.
