Any suggestions on cameras people are using to record their shooting.

Looking for comparisons regarding size, ease of attachment, picture quality, point of frame, ease of turning on and off, etc...

Not really concerned about price just want a rig that works well and easy to setup and doesn't feel like 500 pounds on my head! lol
 
Lots of good footage from the Mobius. $60 from eBay.

Truly matchbox sized. I'd use one except that I don't wear a hat.

Not my video.

 
Replay Prime, nicer form factor than the GoPro with as good of video. Also nice on my bike. I have a Tachyon, not impressed by it's video quality at all although the new ones are better. The Contour is just bulky as hell.
 
PIVOTHEAD.......HD glasses, slightly heavier side frames than normal glasses but have used them with MSA Sordin muffs like you use with no problem excellent video , easy one touch button turn on either video or stills ...comes with 3 colored lenses, kinda expensive around $3-400 and because they have no screen you need to view/and or download onto a laptop or tv..............way less trouble and less cumbersome than having to attach anything bulkier somewhere and really simple to turn on/off
 
GoPro Black series, great picture quality and free editing app. Mounts are sold all over the place and you can find a deal if you look around.

You might want to consider what other sports/activities you will video as well - I do waterskiing/tubing with the kids as well as the odd track day in the car so having 100% waterproof and lots of mounting options is a huge bonus.
 
These look cool... It says for Law Enforcement and Sportsman, so they have some sort of safety resistance.

Says you get clear lenses as well.

I've had a pair of Chinese knockoffs from Ebay.ca for about $25USD, but there's no stabilization, so the video is VERY jumpy, just when walking.

The new GoPro4 Session looks pretty good, but until I play with one in person I'll stick to my RePlay. Which I should mention, does require me to tighten my hat up pretty good to stop it from coming off during a run. A tad annoying, but the form factor and phenomenal features makes up for that.
 
One more - F#@k Henrys - but more importantly;

Those glasses-camera look like they are thick enough to pull a set of headphones away from your ears and break the seal.
Something to keep in mind.
