"And thanks to its 640x480 VGA CMOS sensor, picture quality is cracking, no matter what you're getting up to. Okay, so the resolution isn’t up there with top-end fancypants vidcams, but would you really want to strap one of those to your head whilst playing silly buggers in a kayak? Exactly."
A CMOS sensor is about the worst sensor for this kind of thing - without getting technical on yo' ass, the rolling shutter (not global shutter) basically guarantees wobbly smeary video - and the resolution is shit, not even standard definition.
