ContourHD’s operations couldn’t be simpler. Slide the record switch forward to record and slide it back to stop. Do you need silent mode (no beeps)? We have that option too.

Rechargeable Battery
No need for AA batteries with your ContourHD HD wearable camcorder. Powered by a removable, rechargeable battery you’ll get up to 4 hours HD video with either model.
