My New Toy!

Pat McGroin

Hi lads , after watching the hat cam video's and other shooting videos on here I did a bit of research on what was out there and came across these .The I-Kam Xtreme 3.0 Video glasses ! Theyre a pair of sunglasses with interchangeable lenses that have a built in 3 megapixel camera . These are the dogs balls ! One touch Videoing , 3 hours recording and just plug into computer to load it all .
I won't get a chance to use them on a hunt for another month or so but I'm rightly excited about using them . Have a poke around google and check them out.


Available online on E-Bay and other places , they're a bit expensive but I got a bargain on a pair in a gun shop in New Zealand :cool:

AS Soon as I make any vids of my own I'll stick them up here , In the meantime here's a vid of what they can do .

If anyone over there is importing gear (moby and co ) I'm not sure these can be got in Ireland so there might be an opening in the market

Good Luck

You can get them in black, cops in the states were using them when I was there last for evidence on road stops. They look alright ! Dog the bounty hunter uses them as well they have a built mp3 player as well

I paid 150 NZ$ for them .The shop was closing down and letting stuff go for half nothing , only for cash was tight , I would have bought the whole shop !! One big hunting outfitters wanted 500 for them :eek::eek:
They can be got on E-Bay and other spots for in and around the 150 euro mark delivered .

They do love robbing you with postage though.

works about 100 or so euro if your not stung by customs;)

Pat McGroin

Thats the ones alright !
Not sure how they would perform in any kind of rain though so I'm keeping them for dry day work only ! They're a good tight fit on my big head so no fear of losing them thats for sure . If you had someone stateside they could pick them up for you and post them to you .

Nothing wrong with that Pat.
Looking forward to more.
It's the handy shots you'd miss more often when you've time to think. Why didn't you fire again?

Pat McGroin

Jesus , I would have looked twice as bad missing with two shots !!!
Ah I had my chance at him so good luck to him after that .

Pat McGroin

it would be pretty cool to video a fox or rabbit through the scope
would be a bit tricky if it has auto focus

best of luck with the .223

looking online it looks like the camera is located between the two lenses of the glasses above your nose
id say it will blocked with the edge of the scope
