I haven't yet figured out how to mount mine to my Harley without the vibration making the video almost unwatchable. This isn't an issue isolated to me; it's a Harley thing. Harleys vibrate and the Gopro doesn't have any kind of image stabilization - plus I think that the image being such high resolution might make it even more noticeable. I'll just have to figure it out. I've seen a few really, really good videos from Gopros on Harleys.
I ordered a skeleton case for mine too so that I can plug it in with the mini usb that I usually use for my GPS on my scooter. You might consider that when purchasing. The plug is covered otherwise with the stock case presumably for keeping water and elements out.
It's a lot smaller than I thought from just seeing the ads and the few I've seen in person. It packs a lot of tech in that tiny package. The images are pretty spectacular. This isn't your Iphone's video. I haven't honestly used it yet to do anything more than shoot video on my bike - which as I mentioned isn't turning out all that hot so far, but generally speaking it outshines my previous setup with my Mini DV camcorder on my bike by a wide margin to say the least and I don't feel like I'm destroying my $500 Mini DV camcorder in the process. This is what this thing is made for and it does it very well. If I can just figure out the mounting situation to reduce the vibration - I anticipate some spectacular riding video from my future trips.
I heard after my purchase that they announced a firmware upgrade this summer that will boost the bitrate options to 35mbps and give it 24p capability - FOR FREE! So that it can be integrated into timelines with other cameras easier for multicamera projects. The images that I've seen as demonstrations of the higher bitrate look pretty fantastic! That's higher than my much more expensive Canon HF S20's 24mbps.



The only thing that bums me out is as soon a s I bought the Hero 2, they came out with the three and now, I'm like, Ohhhhh. Bummer.Oh well, maybe I'll get one of those for the next movie!




I used the LCD BacPac for starters, but once you have the correct setting for video, there is no need for the LCD screen unless you want to frame a particular image. I would recommend using the LCD screen for photos.
Shake and bounce was much less noticable with the Go Pro, eventhough I was holding it in my hands. Next time I will try some of the different mounts (helmet, head and chest straps) and keep my hands free. It's also safer that way!
The Go Pro took better video in lower light situations like walking through shadows or the darker side of craters.
Wind noise always a problem with video was about the same as the Canon miniDV, but according to the instruction book the waterproof housing should help with wind noise. I haven't used it in the water yet.
Likes: Small and easy to use, just set and forget. Excellent video quality. I found a fully charged battery lasted well over 1 hour non-stop record or playback. I haven't had the camera long enough to test the limits yet. Using small SD cards are much easier than carrying miniDV tapes. Cost is comparable to my miniDV camera.
Dislikes: very few, but there is no zoom feature and burning a video to a DVD presents one minor problem, if you record, stop, record, and stop your play back will be in sections and not continuous, so be prepared to get plenty of use with your pause/record buttons on a DVD recorder. The Go Pro is designed and best used to take video for longer stretches of time.
I love the Go Pro Hero and look forward to using it more and more, like on my motorcycle, kayaking and snorkeling. I would deffinately recommend the Go Pro for all your action sports and activities.

Don't count on their unresponsive customer "service" either.
I guess these are great when they work, but beware, you may get paper weight too.
**Update**
I called customer service, and with a manual firmware update, had the camera operating the way it should have. I am still only giving it 4 stars, because they know they have a problem with the update process and don't seem to care to put a clear acknowledgment and solution on the GoPro site.
The tech support guy was great btw. My original comment about support was directed at the fact that they don't seem to respond to the online help.


I'm going to be using this in most of my videos, and am going to strap it to a RC quadcopter for many action scenes. I can't wait to use it to its full capabilities.
I recommend it for anyone who are into extreme sports, or just to film POV videos.


The Hero2 has different angles of view when grabbing footage. The widest is 170

The Hero 2, is just a great camera for the average "ACTION" filmer.
This is #2. I stocked up, because I never don't want to be without my HERO 2!!
Amazon had a better price, and the whole deal was better than I could find on Ebay. Plus there's "shady" people on Ebay these days. So watch out!!!!!!
I had this camera in 2 days. I love AMAZON, and my Hero 2 GOPRO

As for the packaging...It was in the retail box and included all accessories. However, it was obvious that it had been opened before and was simply re-taped. The contents did not look damaged or used but it did irk me to know that I paid for a new item and did not get a new item. I would rather have gotten it off of e-Bay. It was cheaper on e-bay but I thought I was paying for a guaranteed new item.
-1 star for that but the camera itself is a 5+ star item.

The other two cameras randomly quit working in the middle of filming HD video. We've swapped SD cards and it didn't fix the problem.
Customer support from Go Pro is absolutely terrible. They do not have a method to restore factory defaults and then update to try to troubleshoot the cameras. The company took two weeks to respond to my customer service request to try to troubleshoot the issues with the $950 worth of their camera products I've purchased. Go Pro says they do not have a return policy and would not replace any of the cameras.
The battery life is about 2 hours. If you leave the camera on all day, waiting for the perfect shot, it will probably be dead when you need it.
I strongly recommend reconsidering a Go Pro purchase based on the product performance, the way the company treats its customers and the responsiveness of their customer support. If you use these cameras for business, treat them as disposable, because that is about the best you can expect. I hope they can fix their company, service and the Hero 3.


It seems from all the reviews that for every 10 cameras....more than 1/2 have major issues and seems like you have to be a d*mn rocket scientist just to set it up and figure it out! GoPro has crappy support, no phone support and they have deleted some comments that are negative against their product(because the product is garbage and not working as THEY ADVERTISE it to work)....So....GoPRO.....I refuse to purchase your product FROM ANYONE! Although I have to give cudos to amazon.com since they at least back this product better than the stupid company that produces it!! They will return, replace or refund....PERIOD! GoPro will NOT! ADIOS GOPRO!!!!
