I like the GoPro Hero which is cheap enough (at about US$179) to allow
having a couple of them. The mounts are pretty good, too; with enough of
them available to allow almost any setup. They do record audio as well. And
the HD is amazingly good for such a small camera. Sue bought me an older
(non-HD) version last year off Amazon for $29 and I've used it mountain
biking quite a bit. Not tried it on the kayak yet, however.

One thing that the GoPro showed me is that my talent as a videographer is
definitely limited; especially in the editing and production parts. Nowhere
close to even the early projects Mark Sanders did. I'm more interested in
the experience than documenting it, I guess. Glad Mark and others who do
this well are around and willing to share their exploits.
