Motorsports
Having seen the onboard cameras and in-car footage on TV many motorsports enthusiasts have invested in our equipment wanting to film their own driving or riding exploits. We supply both top race teams and amateur individuals alike, many of which go on to submit their video footage for inclusion in TV coverage of various events.

Onboard Cameras
Miniature onboard cameras are now used by many to film their own sports and activities. We've taken our expertise and know how from the world of TV to create a range of 'off the shelf' camera packages. The packages we offer are designed to suit a variety of budgets and activities with a selection of functionality and specifications. We also offer a number of kits designed for a particular sport such as motorcycling or skiing (right). |

What is the 4Kam system?
BULLET CAMERA + DVR + MICROPHONE
|
Simple 4Kam system
|
4Kam were the 1st company to offer an all inclusive and ready to use camera kit, we called it the 'Action Ready Package' (ARP). It included a miniature camera, a small digital video recorder (DVR) and a microphone plus a camera mount and a power supply. This is still the same principle that all our packages are designed to but obviously the equipment on offer has improved as technology allows.
We now have a wide variety of ARP's available that cater for all needs and most budgets. They are designed to offer complete functionality out of the box and are fully expandable with the large range of add-ons and accessories that are available in the 4Kam system.
What's different about 4Kam?
Unlike many other companies 4Kam don't sell a selection of cameras that are just the same as everyone else's. Once purchased those cameras are usually limited to a few brackets included in the box, its hard to get further accessories, very difficult extend the battery life and pretty much impossible to upgrade components - if the a new design comes out you'll simply have to buy a new one.
The 4Kam system is different because we develop the packages in house and supply directly to you the customer with all the equipment is designed to be expandable and upgradable. Because we designed the packages our team are very knowledgeable about them, if you have specific needs or requirements we can normally taylor a camera package specially for you.
Using the 4Kam system you can...
...record DVD quality video.
...have up to 4 cameras on the same system.
...power your camera system from a car or bike.
...record video continuously for over 30 hours at a time. ...operate the system via remote control or hands free (using power start).
...improve your system at a later date using one or more of our 100's of accessories.
...use our crash replacement policy to repair or replace equipment in the event of an accident.

Charity
We also support a number of charities either directly or indirectly so that events and fundraising experiences are caught on camera.
When raising money for charitable causes exposure is the key to success so video footage is vital if the event is to feature on local tv news items etc. Its also nice for those taking part to have a record of the event too. |
