Trust me I ddi not go to greant effort looking into all the systems. I was pissed at the crap I had, saw the POV HD system just as it became availble and pulled the trigger. It is not the best answer for automotive use and costs a good bit more that an aptec or Ohnogopro. There are in car systems that work very well that are made for the task and more but are even more expensive than the POV HD. One aspect that it has over all the all in one units is the recorder with screen. This is handy not just to see if it is on and working as intended, you can see what the cam view is while pointing it. Don't get to go back later and find that the run group sticker or R view mirror was dead in the middle of view or you mostly recorded the right side a pillar and or everything was white balanced into a snow ball of inconprehensable road view a black ring of car cockpit around it. The vimeo example below is a greatly compressed with much loos of detail clip. The original videos are sharp and clear.
