I prefer Jeremae's idea of a hat-cam--something that points constantly in the line-of-sight. I'd think that would give a much better overall rendition at playback than a gun-mounted camera...and may be less expensive. The biggest problem I see with a gun-cam is that you'll never see what led up to the presentation of the firearm in the first place, and you only see what the gun is pointed at: if an officer has his gun at low-ready several yards from a suspect, you may only see ground, feet, and pants. Seems like it would be far better to capture where the officer's head is pointing, and that would include the moments leading up to the drawing of his gun as well as his scanning for additional threats and what he sees in the moments following reholstering.
