Im looking for a small waterproof camcorder - the GoPro seems expensive with add ons etc -so have been looking at the Veho Muvi HD10 hands free camcorder. Has anyone had any experience of this? got any advice???

No help I'm afraid. A good friend swears by the go-pro.

Having said that - Dylan Winter of this parish and filmmaker par-excellence has posted about what video cameras to use on a boat...

Kodak Playsport. Quarter of the price of a go pro, seems perfectly functional to me

I bought a cheap mini HD video camera. It came with a housing that was not disimilar to the housings I used to use with stills cameras when diving. It also came with a variety of methods of attaching it to things. The intention was to film ourselves sailing at some point.....
I'll find out the make and let you know.

From both video reviews there seems to be an audio issue with the adixxion
