Newegg has great prices. Delivery takes 4 days. I bought an 8GB (14.99) and a 16GB (24.99) - both are Class 10, come with HD adapters and had free S/H when purchased. Here are links:

I tested these by copying and then reading back several hundred MB of large data files (typical for video work). Both can write up to 9.5 MB/sec and read 16.5 MB/sec. Haven't actually used them yet - Tachyon hasn't sent me my new OPS HD cam yet ("Coming This August"). Whaaaaaahhh!

The color of the new camera is quite good, much better than any other that I have tried. The pause or shake I think is due to a card that isn't fast enough. The one that I paid through the nose for was a class 6. I will be looking for a class 10 or higher and I think that will stop. If you buy one of these cameras get your card from Amazon or somewhere else. About half the price. It takes a Micro card by the way.
Sometimes on Vimeo, you get a message that there was a problem. That is due to the web site rather than the movie. Just close it out and click it again.
The movies that come out of the camera works fine without any conversion on Windows Movie Maker that comes on almost all computers. Cannot speak for Mac. I have to admit that I was cranking right along with my speed. This was an evening flight and there is still some quite unstable air in the evenings, so I was flying at max cruise. If I am going to hit a dust devil in the grass fields, ( no dust) I want to be in and out as fast as I can get. To edit the movies, just plug in the video card to the computer and import it to Movie Maker, then you are ready to edit. Now there is a provision in the program to set up the way that the movie is saved for transmission to You Tube or Vimeo. The required information is available on line, not sure where at the moment.
They are making a smaller version of a helmet cam that is about 2 1/2 x1x1 for the same price, but it isn't out until sometime in late Aug. I am not sure if there is any advantage to a smaller version, and it may be harder to mount. My old one had a remote with it, but the new one does not.

I wanted to check the Alvord for its water level. I have never seen it wet this time of the year. I put the camera back on the pitot tube since I was getting more wave and vibration than I though I should. Perhaps I didn't tighten it down enough, since it was loose when I got home.
