Can I use this without a helmet, meaning can I just put the camera on the mount and strap around my head?

Yes, you can just use that head band but unless you're actually gonna use the camera and the helmet accessories, this item isn't a good buy. I bought this for the headband and I don't use anything else so half of it was kind of a waste of money....

Yes. This mount works well without a helmet. I have worn it while working on a railroad car and it worked well over a period of about an hour. Sony's instructions for assembly are not real clear so be prepared to fiddle around with it a bit.

It's possible to, but without a beanie or a hat on it can't imagine it would be terribly comfortable.

dont see how you can put this strap this on your head... i used in my helmet. the original gopro ones has better glue and last better for skydivers...

No, i think is not possible to use it without the helmet, because the microphone and the speakers must be held in the helmet and the transmitter must be fitted on one side of the helmet

You can mount it on the tripod. You can physically move the camera by moving your body when using the rig, but the camera is stationary in the rig. I also found the mount uncomfortable since the weight rests on the front of the shoulder. I added an over the shoulder mount, and it's great for shooting hand held.

You could but you would not be able to reach the camera unless you removed the vest. There is no back strain with the camera on the front. But then I don't carry a big telephoto lens.

Yes, there are 2 different mounts that you may use for helmet, etc.. they are included in the box with the camera.

I'm sure you could. the case has a little clip on the side for securing it to a divin mask. I might add a velcro strap or wire tie to it to make sure it is more secure since the clip isn't really made for the movement and jostling you would get on a motorcycle. Also, though it is marketed as an HD camera, it really isn't. The quality is not that great but for the price it is still a nice little unit.

Yes - this is only for a helmet application. (It would not fit around your head.) If you are looking for something for the Sony Action cam, they make a mount that is a head band type.

I asked my husband and he said no it doesn't have a mount for the actual helmet but it did come with a head strap, not really sure if it will fit over a helmet. He loves the camera though, well worth the money. Hope this helps !!! Enjoy :)

It has a standard mount thread on the bottom so in that sense yes. But I do not know of any mount made just for helmet mounting. You could use something like this -&gt; http://www.amazon.com/Swann-SWVID-FREE01-GL-Freestyle-Vented-Helmet/dp/B008UG14DS/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1360096506&sr=8-6&keywords=camera+helmet+mount

Personally I never use sticky mounts for anything. I would recommend getting the Delkin Fat Gecko Mini (check my review), it's a great mount. The suction cup is very concave so it should stick really well to a rounded helmet, plus it's more maneuverable than the sticky that comes with this camera.

You would definitely need the selfie stick that go pro makes. Now. I know it has an attachment on the end to mount the camera but mounting an arm to a helmet is out of my knowledge. I'd consult YouTube. They have videos on everything ever concerning gopros. Or mount the camera to your bike or board or just hold the selfie stick.

You could get away without one, screw the camera directly onto the slide, but you won't be able to tilt, pan, etc. A tripod head makes it a lot more flexible and easier to mount the camera.

no. unfortunately, you'd have to take the strap off in order to use it with a tripod.

Yeah, it comes with an adapter screw thread that makes it work without a tripod head. But i would strongly suggest using it with a tripod head. Otherwise the camera is only stuck in one position on the slider and it's direction is determined by where the thread of the screw stops. So this can make it very hard to set up your shot.

Yes, you can leave the strap on the camera and use a tripod or monopod. The strap connector wheel is double threaded. The wheel has a male thread for the camera connection and on the bottom of the thread for the camera is a female thread for your monopod or tripod. Very easily accomplished.

Probably not, but the curve of the cycles wind shield may distort the image more than you would like. Plus the camera is not weather proof. You might prefer a Go Pro or similar with its weather proof case, plus you could mount on your helmet and elsewhere on the bike.
