 Re: how about the icam?
My buddy has told me they are selling some on EBAY for $27 and they are just as good. Just word of mouth though have not witnessed them. Supposedly the exact same thing.
I-Cams are pretty good...WestEndAngler has a couple of videos with them. Not bad, but none of them are good in low light.

 Re: how about the icam?
The Ikams are cool but they stink in low light, you almost always need to put some music over what's being recorded. I was going back & forth out of the cabin & Caddo and they went crazy on me I guess due to the moisture / humidity from going inside a cool A/C area to hot...
If you think they'll work while hunting you are probably mistaken. Your eyes move more than you head so you have to be very diligent about where your head is pointed not your eyes otherwise the shot you want will be just out of the picture.

 Re: how about the icam?
yeah i was gonna mention that, he spent a few hours after the hunts editing and shit, the dove hunt was over 2 days and were only the kill shots he made while the camera was actually recording. and the teal hunt was about 3 hours worth of video, but to make it look worth a damn, he had to edit or other wise you'd be sitting there watching the sky and listening to the guys bs in the blind lol. but those videos i put up did give a good example of how you can see the birds in the air, gun shooting, birds falling and other stuff.

 Re: how about the icam?
I bought them a few weeks ago and they have worked out pretty well.. as you can see from the sample vids, the video quality is pretty good. The only thing that you can put a negative mark on is the audio quality, but for $150 you cant beat it man. You can always edit the footage and put a song in there to cover it up! My link is below and you can see the footage I have! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LGYAZs6oN9U
