GoPro HD HERO2: Motorsports Edition
Posted: Thu Aug 16, 2012 8:41 pm
Ok so Tim suggested this in another thread - awesome idea Time.
On Amazon.com - it's available for $241.14 (if you're a prime member - free 2 days shipping). I've looked around, this is the best price available.
This would be an awesome item for us all to have mounted in our rigs while off-roading, and then we can edit together some great stuff to post up and to have for ourselves.
Check out some of these features:
- 2X Sharper Professional Glass Lens than the GoPro HD Hero Camera
- 10 Photos Per Second Burst
- VIDEO: HD Resolutions: 1080P 30 FPS, 960P 30 and 48 FPS, 720P 30 and 60 FPS
- PHOTO RESOLUTIONS: 11MP, 8MP, 5 MP
- Wi-Fi BacPacTM + Wi-Fi RemoteTM Compatible: Long range remote control of multiple cameras, Wi-Fi Video Preview + Playback on Smartphone /and Medium 127o - FOVVIDEO
Widest Range of Video & Photo Capabilities
The HD HERO2 offers three different HD resolutions, giving you three filming modes to capture the best angles for any given activity.
1080p - 170° wide angle, 127° medium, 90° narrow FOV @30 fps, 16:9 aspect ratio
960p - 170° wide angle FOV @ 48 fps + 30 fps, 4:3 aspect ratio
720p - 170° wide angle, 127° medium, 90° narrow FOV @60 fps + 30 fps, 16:9 aspect ratio
Standard Definition - WVGA - 170° wide angle, 127° medium FOV @120 fps +60 fps for super slow motion.
Amazing 11MP Photos
Shoot hands-free, 11 megapixel photos automatically at multiple intervals until the SD card is full.
Resolutions - 11MP, 8MP, 5 MP
FOV - 170° wide angle FOV, 127° Medium FOV
Capture Modes - Single, 10 Photo Burst, Time-Lapse*, Self-Timer
* Now supports time-lapse photo every 0.5 seconds. Requires Class 10 speed SD Card.
Audio Excellence
We've invested more in the HD HERO2 camera's sound system than most companies spend on their entire camera development. You'll only be hearing the sounds of your experience, not the howl of the wind. How? Obsessive audio engineering and an understanding that good sound is as important as good video. The HD HERO2 also utilizes a 3.5mm stereo external mic input for professional sound quality.
Shockproof & Waterproof to 197' (60m)
Proven in heavy surf from Hawaii to Tahiti, Southern Mexico to Northern California, HD HERO2 cameras can handle it thanks their highly engineered polycarbonate exoskeletal housing. Ready for action ranging from scuba diving to dirt track racing, and tough enough to take a spin across the asphalt, GoPros are built to take a beating & keep filming. Replacement lens kits & housings are available, so there's little worry while going for glory - even while diving with sharks.
New Easy-To-Use Interface
Simple Language-based user LCD interface.
One Button Mode: One Button Mode forces the camera to automatically begin recording in its default power up mode once the camera is ON. To stop recording, you turn the camera OFF.
LED Lights: LED lights on all sides. This allows you to know if the camera is on from nearly any angle.
Rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery lasts 2.5 Hours, Heater Included
The included 1100mAh Lithium-Ion battery lasts 2.5 hours and is rechargeable through any USB port. You can charge it with your computer or with any USB compatible wall or car charger. You can even use the camera while the battery is charging, convenient for filming road trips where you might leave the camera running for long periods of time. The Battery BacPac is a second battery can be added to the back of the camera, doubling the battery life to 5 hours. Wall Chargers and Car Chargers are also available from GoPro.
For colder temperatures, an integrated battery heater helps keep the battery warm during winter sports, extending recording times beyond what's possible with other camera systems.
Shoot 8+ hrs of HD Video with 32GB SD Card (SD Card NOT INCLUDED)
Media saved to SD card, up to 32GB capacity (SDHC). Average recording times using a 32GB card:
1080p @ 30 FPS = 4 hours
960p @ 30 FPS = 6 hours
720p @ 60 FPS = 4 hours
720p @ 30 FPS = 9 hours
WVGA @ 120 FPS = 4.5 hours

Also this item can be purchased on Amazon.com as well that looks like if the the reviews are correct and the software is updated correctly this month will allow this remote to wifi-blue tooth live video to your smartphone (iPhone) and view live pictures etc, and control the camera from it as well.

I'll probably be ordering this camera and remote soon. Randall did post up a link in the other thread, but I'll get him to throw up the amazon links in here too if anyone is interested (the site gets cash back on amazon orders via these links).
If anyone has any better products or ideas for us gathering our trips on video post up.
