Default GoPro video

Just bought a GoPro HD. Strapped it to the car at the track last night. If you were thinking about buying one i wouldnt hesitate.

They seem like really handy little cameras, the only reason I won't buy one is the sound quality is really shitty compared to a lot of new-ish, moderately priced digicams. Even the iphone 4 takes better video and sound than the GoPro HDs... obviously I understand the GoPro has a lot of other features/benefits, it's just a shame they haven't upgrade the actual camera itself yet.

not sure where you came up with that but the sound is actually very good. think about it. the camera is mounted to my windshield while going 100 mph i think its pretty good. it was better before i had to convert it twice to be able to upload it though.

I sell the GoPro Cameras, and use them as well. They are excellent and versatile cameras.

I also sell Contour HD cameras and Scorpion Micro cameras. All serve various purposes and I personally use each one for something slightly different.

If you guys are ever interested in picking up a quality camera for any kind of sport, let me know!

I wouldn't go as far to say that it takes better video, maybe sound, but like stated before we put our cameras through conditions that most don't. Check out 98z28darkness on youtube. The newest vids are with a go pro.
