Tuukka I understand your side, but I think you worry too much. Photomonkey One could say that about any camera. Catsup Interesting reading all the comments. Poor 'low light" Poor in snow presumably, bright light I want to purchase one for skiing, but have doubts. GKC Don't let them sway your decision. Look at all of these GoPro Snow Videos! Click on the Snow clips on the right The GoPro is a professional piece of equipment that is used by the 's everyday GKC Awesome!
Cy Cheze The announcement says, "The redesigned lens is claimed to be twice as sharp as its predecessor. Slightly better but still not great in low light.
Tuukka Top action camera. Dan Tong Why do I have to go follow the link to find the max aperture 2. I have used two camera attached to my car using the suction clamp and I must say it works really well. That is as long as I prepare the surface well enough clean it!
I use a microphone plugged into the HD Hero 2 inside the car and the sound is exceptional. Here are some screen grabs from the p footage…. Even so, this little camera is great and very handy as an uber-portable alternative for certain events. Maybe you are likely to get soaked water parks or bashed about a bit concerts. You need to know that your camera is capable of holding its own. Otherwise, you have no way of seeing what you are shooting.
Use the wide field of view to make sure you capture the action in most cases. The time lapse feature is fantastic. It has a good range of shooting times from every one minute right down to every half a second using a class 10 SD card. Again, the possibilities to get creative with this are endless. As are the uses for the high speed, 10 frames in a second feature. Great for air shows, car shows, bike races or any fast action events you may attend or take part in!
The self timer 10 seconds is also very handy if you want to be in the shots too. One of my biggest gripes with the original Hero HD, and with the Contour HD I used in Africa, and something that puts off a lot of Vloggers video bloggers , is the quality of audio on many of these small units. This is great if you use your camera on a motorbike and want recognisable audio from within your crash helmet. I use Sony radio mics so I can speak and record my voice even when feet away from the camera.
This is very handy indeed and the quality of sound is awesome. I will say though, that the internal mic picks up engine noise quite nicely if you like that sort of thing. The number of accessories, add-ons and gadgets for this camera is pretty impressive…but also expensive. Be aware that buying the camera with all the tasty additions cad add up so check your cart before pressing "buy"!
Very handy indeed if you want to ensure accurate composition of your footage and stills. This is totally detachable and easy to use and will also allow you to review footage and stills right from the camera. You also receive a series of additional backs to the housing to allow for the extended body:. This handy little accessory will double the recording time of your cameras.
It also plugs into any USB charging source and doubles as a charger for your spare batteries. All using a special synchronization cable specifically designed to align the footage or stills perfectly for great 3D action.
Available from February , this is one of the handiest and coolest additions you can have for any camera and again, read on and think about the possibilities. Simply attach the Wi-Fi BacPac to your camera and operate it and up to 50 Go Pro cameras remotely from long distances using either:.
So, you can place the camera in a location and not only operate it remotely using your mobile phone, you can also see what you are filming!
This is most definitely on my list of things to buy. Should you ever damage the housing or lens for example, you can simply buy a replacement and fit it yourself. You can also buy a "floaty" McFloat Face backdoor to prevent it from sinking should it become unattached from your surfboard! Plus a tripod mount which I use to attach the Go Pro to my Gorillapod!
