Yes please specify what kind and or how you use it. I think it would be cool specially on a bay up.

Re: Collar Cameras?
I have never use one but someone I sold a pup to sent me a cool video of that hound with one on his collar.
He told me the make is Go Pro Hero sold at Best Buy or REI.

Re: Collar Cameras?
I'm currently using two Go Pro's Hero's. Still working out the best way to mount it to the collar. Haven't got that shot I'm hoping for yet. Go Pro's work pretty well because they have a stabilizing system built in and also two wide angle settings. They are also 1080i. They will take a 32gig card which gives you about 5 hrs of video.

Re: Collar Cameras?
Midland XTC 300's work great. Smaller than Go Pro's and are 1080 as well. They come with several different mounts. Adapt to a collar well. Makes for good videos.

Re: Collar Cameras?
Once you figure out how to mount one to a collar let me know! I want to rig a setup for my two main dogs.
Re: Collar Cameras?
I saw this a while ago, don't think it would work in the thick cover but check it out if you haven't:

Re: Collar Cameras?
Has anyone tried the Dogtec that BH linked to. They seem to have the mounting method worked out.

Re: Collar Cameras?
GoPro cameras have stabilization built in and it works very well. I mounted my camera using the two tabs built into the cameras plastic case with a bolt through them. I then took off the aluminum tab/bracket on the Garmin collar and used two L brackets I made out of aluminum stock. Mounted the camera on that metal bracket on the garmin collar and its perfect. The camera sits below the dogs neck and is protected but gives a perfect perspective from the dogs view. I mounted my camera so it's pointing slightly up so you can see the dogs nose and the bottom of his ear. I'm working on a video right now. Won't be done till after our season is over.
You'll have to buy a 32gig SD card for the camera which gives you five hours of HD video.
