VholdR debuts first wearable 1080p camcorder

When consumers are looking for the best buy on cameras, they often need to use their head. But a new camcorder from VholdR puts a whole new spin on that idea with their latest wearable camera that mounts on a person’s head.

Much like many other top rated digital cameras, the VholdR shoots at resolutions up to 1080p. But the difference is that this video camera can be strapped to a helmet or a user’s head, making it the first wearable HD camera that shoots in 1080p for maximum quality. This could be a perfect option for people who are into extreme sports like skydiving, rock climbing or bungee jumping who want to give viewers a first-hand view of what it’s like to brave the elements and take risks.

You can record up to eight hours of footage onto removable micro SD memory cards. The cameras will begin shipping in mid-October and are expected to retail for $329 for the full 1080p version.
