Key Chain CAM
This is the Keychain Camera. It's $12 - $25 at Amazon.com and is a great way to record in flight video. It has a 4 gig memory card and 200mha LiPo battery. The battery will last about 45 mins, It weights 16 Grams with case and about 11 grams with casing removed. Takes great pics and video and very crash forgiving. The newer models now have a sound activated video setting as well. This camera also works as a USB WebCam. The time and date stamp I think cam be removed but you might have to use some trickry to do it. To me this camers works well in bright and dim light conditions.
Camera: 1280 X 960
Memory: 4 GB internal memory
Time Stamp: Date Hour
Recording: AVI
Resolution (Video): 640 x 480
Frame Rate: 30 FPS
Resolution (Still Image / Photo): 1280 x 960

Battery Type: 280mAh 3.7V

Dimension: 2 x 1 1/4 x 1/2
Weight: 0.7 oz.

Chuck Lohr's website at : http://chucklohr.com/808/ has lots of info about keychain ("808") cameras. There are around 12 different models with wildly different specs and quality. He also has info on camera mods and software.

Russel and Chris,
Happy to be of help. I've got 3 keychain cams, #3,6,&7. The 3 & 6 are good and the 7 can be tweeked via software settings to make it "acceptable". I haven't had the money to try one of the "hi Def" keychains yet.
