Welcome to another session of Essential Stuff. Today I will be continuing in our showcase of cool accessories from the good folks at VholdR for the ContourHD camcorder. Check out this video of their Universal Mount Adaptor.

With this nifty little accessory, you will be able to mount your ContourHD or VholdR Wearable Camcorder onto your favorite camera mounts. The Universal Mount Adapter includes trails on both sides, has a “female” 1/4″-20 screw on the bottom to screw your camera to any mounts or tripods that have their own male ¼”-20 screw.

Be sure to check out their site for more cool accessories. Now get out there and make some videos!

Stay tuned or more updates.

Contour HD Handlebar Mount

Welcome to another session of Essential Stuff. The good folks at VholdR sent us a nifty little accessory for the ContourHD. The New Handle Bar Mount puts your ContourHD or VholdR Wearable Camcorder in the middle of the action. Check it out!

So you have to put your camcorder on its side, but what I forgot to mention in the video is that you can rotate the lens 90 degrees, and then slide it onto the top of the mount. No need to mess with it digitally.

And like I said, tighten the mount down to fit any standard 29mm handle bars or whatever, and with 360 degrees of rotation, you can shoot at any angle.

Stay tuned for more updates!

RC8 Ride with Contour HD 1080p

What’s going on guys? Welcome to a special session of Essential Stuff. As you will see, this post is categorized in multiple sections of our site.

Today, I mounted the Contour HD 1080p Camcorder onto my helmet and took the KTM RC8 out for a bit of light thrashing. I mostly want to test out the video and sound quality of the camcorder. Check out the video.

I am sure you noticed that the HD did not disappoint. The video came out clear and crisp. Although one YouTuber commented that we should upload the video in HD. Once I figure out how to do that using iMovie, I will!

The one thing I have a problem with is the wind noise. Now I know that this is something that every portable camcorder has, but I had only wished I guess. No worries though. As you may have noticed, I just turned down the volume when I edited the video, so it wasn’t that bad.

I will also be testing the camcorder out next time using the handlebar/ clip-on mount. It will be placed behind the windshield so that may get rid of the wind noise and bring out the v-twin rumble. Watch out for that soon.

Well that’s it for this time. Be sure to log on to KTM Boards for more information. Stay tuned.

Contour HD 1080P Camcorder

Welcome to another session of Essential Stuff. Today I will be giving you an overview of the Contour HD 1080P Camcorder sent to us by the good folks over at VholdR.

As you will see in the video, they sent over a number of attachments along with the camcorder, so we will be doing a series of videos and posts for each attachment.

Three cool features about the Contour HD 1080P before we get to the video: It is currently the smallest and lightest HD Wearable Camcorder in the world, fitting in the palm of your hand and weighing 4.3 ounces. The ContourHD1080P offers three frame rates to record in. Now the fastest action will be ready to replay in slow motion. And finally, the armored body is water-resistant; its anodized aluminum body withstands dust, dirt, mud, and snow. It’s also shock, vibration and impact resistant.

Check it out!

Stay tuned and watch out for our reviews on the goggle, windshield, handlebar, and helmet attachments. We will also be uploading videos shot with each attachment as well.

For those of you with the camcorder, don’t forget to upload and share them on VholdR.com!

Stay tuned for more updates.

Tigra Nano Speakers Review

Hey guys, welcome to another segment of IPM’s Essential Stuff. Today, we are going to be showing you the Nano Speaker Accessory (also known as the SoundTREK 1000 Speaker on their website) from the good folks over at Tigra Technology.

You may remember from a couple of months back, we did a review on the Tigra iPhone Bike Console, and we mentioned this speaker attachment. Well, the good folks at Tigra were so impressed with our review, they granted our request to test out these speakers. Check them out!

These speakers were intended to be installed on bicycles; the steering stem to be exact. But like the Tigra iPhone Bike Console, they are just as versatile. You can mount these just about anywhere that has a one inch diameter tube. Well, you guessed it, we mounted this badboy onto the handlebars of our Triumph Street Triple.

If you are not an iPhone user, never fear. The SoundTREK 1000 is compatible with many other music devices with 3.5mm stereo plugs. The speakers are even water resistant, so you can use them rain or shine.

Well, that’s it for this time. Stay tuned for more updates and be sure to check out Tigra Technology’s website for more of their innovative products!
