I use a GoPro 4 that I picked up second hand for about £100 mounted underneath the Garmin or on a chesty mount depending on whether i want to look like I'm wearing a sports bra or not.
I tend to video segments of the trail and then use the software to capture a screenshot from the vid once I'm back home. It's HD quality footage and here's an example of the pics I can capture

It’s not that the Chilli cams are that bad (they are good enough for a passing car’s number plate in not-great light), it’s just that trying them out made me realise they don’t do what I really want.
What I’d like is something that takes a good quality still of the view ahead on those occasions when I’d like a photo but I’m not in a position to take out my phone. More for on-the-move scenic shots, especially for gravel rides, when I am too preoccupied with keeping up or staying upright to contemplate having the phone in one hand. A remote (or at least easily accessible) button would be essential .
