1. Would stop taking time lapse pictures after about 100 pictures.
2. A lot of the pictures had purple wide stripes on them rendering them useless.
3. Would not take video in HD.
So there's no way I can give this camera a good rating. Two cameras, BOTH with nothing but problems. The concept is great as are the commercials and videos but for whatever reason, I had the bad luck of getting the 2 cameras that didn't work.
I've sent it off to be repaired (for free!), so hopefully I'll be able to update this review. One suggestion I do have is it might be best to oder this camera from the GoPro site itself. It may be a few more dollars but I'm sure it will be in perfect working conditions.
GoPro Customer service is not too bad either. I noticed a little error that I brought to their attention. 1) For firmware updates to the HD Hero2, you must download their CineForm video editing software. The instruction booklet says to go to [...], but that is either a leftover from the original HD Hero Manual (because it takes you to the firmware updates for the original HD Hero), or they changed procedures after printing the booklets and forgot to update the page.
The only think I could wish for is a mount arm that provides for 360 degree rotation and lock. So far, all their mount arms are 90 degrees and swivel.
Easy to use once you read the notice

That should have been on a pro hero 2 299.00 + camera .not to mention another battery if you use the 1080p and get 1 hour record time. the pricing gets me, all I want is the 720 p in the pro hero and of course the English language setting which earlier models should have as standard at 199.00. Out of what 20 diffrents hero packages the one I want is the pro hero 2 naked but at 299.00 I will wait or just go for a good wide angle lens for my camcorder, the most I will spend is 199- 210 as were talking about a camera that china build that wasnt design as lasting for many years, I will advise people to speak up don't roll with the flow,if they wan to play hard ball I will personally write to Sony, cannon, oly,kodak,panasonic,vivatar,sanyo,nikon,etc that look their is a hot selling 170% Len 720-960-1080 p market now that need competition. We need lower prices these aren't fine camera that pp are spending over 500.00 bucks cheap china camera on they leak and wear out and should be priced as such.
The audio... the built-in mic is terrible. External mic input noise floor is noisy... there's like this pulsing repetitive static noise in the background and unless you have loud audio pushing automatic gain control back, your videos will always have this noise. For the most part, my videos are fairly loud inside the car so I don't hear it too often. Also if i have a lapel mic hooked up and my voice is pushing AGC back it's usually fine. But if I run the camera while the engine is off and I am speaking into the camera taking my time explaining what my next vid is about (or whatever), each time I take a breath I hear the noise.
So I am forced to speak like those people that yak yak yak away without breathing...yah you know who.
I highly recommend this item.
High quality and durable
I crash and it took the hit and not a problem with it at all.
This is a great buy
Amazon sell almost anything
Easy to use and great quality
Taken it treking and mountain biking. Looking forward to attaching it to my kayak!
Pros: Good price for the quality. The case is strong and the camera was able to take a beating. The battery lasted longer than expected. All of the on-land, sunny pictures/video came out clear.
Cons: The colors were completely off. I will have to edit everything this camera filmed/shot to correct the color/saturation. Images of trees were muted and the bright blue sky came out gray. Also, I used this camera 1' to 2.5' underwater while snorkeling and the case steamed twice and a small amount of water got inside. This should not happen at such a shallow depth. When going underwater you need to place duct tape around the edges of the case to prevent moisture from getting inside. I did not buy the dive accessory prior to my trip (I didn't know it existed until recently) and all of the videos/shots taken underwater are blurry. If using underwater you need to buy the dive accessory to make your videos/shots usable.
I would buy the GoPro again knowing what I know now. I would purchase more accessories, tape the case, and be prepared for hours of editing.
Once the camera started beeping and wouldn't stop until I pulled the battery out. Three times it just stopped responding to button push. Again, I had to take the batteries out to reset it. I've only had it a week and haven't done anything really cool with it yet, just messing around.
To do any editing, even just cutting and pasting segments, you have to get expensive video editing software, the software from GoPro does nothing really.
Can't edit the light settings at all, so you get no picture in dark places or at night. Inside is a total waste, the image blows out at every window or fluorescent light.
Cheap if you want to film yourself outside during morning or afternoon doing extreme sports, but not useful for much else.
Size: Suprisingly small, the pictures make it look deceptively larger than it is. THis is a +, as you can easily carry it in a coat pocket or bag or whatever, even in its case.
Weight: Extremely lightweight. I was worried about the suction cups on the motorsports package not being able to support a camera, however, once attached, I could not pry the mount or camera off of my car.
Quality: In its highest settings, the quality is excellent. IF YOU PLAN ON SHOOTING ANY HIGH QUALITY VIDEO OR PHOTOS YOU NEED A CLASS 10 MEMORY CARD. I would also recommend getting a 16GB card at the smallest. Memory will go quicker than you expect, remember, its just a memory card. So if shooting things like time lapse, I recommend kicking the quality down a notch to save space. Time lapse photography was excellent. Timed photos the same. This is definately more of a video camera than a photography camera, as there is no view finder or lcd screen (in its basic form) to get a field of view. *MY ONLY COMPLAINT: This camera does not do so well in low light conditions, or in sudden drastic changes of light intensity*
Durability: Lets just say the camera can stand anything short of falls off of buildings onto sidewalks. So unless you plan on BASE jumping without a parachute, you're good.
Accessories: The options are near limitless. But dont be afraid to buy other than GoPro attachments. I have a number of third party accessories, and all so far have been on par with the GoPro quality, and are an exact fit.
This video will show the "deflection" you should expect from the gopro hero 2 -- take note of the beam on the ceiling and how it bends in relationship to the view / angel of the lens to beam...
You will see "curves" this is for someone who is considering using this indoors and not for extreme sports guys...
This also shows it's low light capabilities ...
I do like this unit and it has the software to allow viewing on a cellphone.
Wish you all success.
That is NOT me in the video - lol
Pros:
Better and easier to read menus
Louder audio function indicators (beeps)
Additional light indicators
Better color and use in lower light
Addition Video FOV settings and Photo Modes (after firmware update)
External microphone input port
Mini-HDMI port
Cons:
Not all external microphones will work. In fact GoPro sent me these e-mail messages in regards to microphones:
"Most of the time if a microphone has the ability to draw internal power from the camera, it will try to do so and stop drawing power from the battery. The problem with this is the camera itself has about around a 2 volt supply coming from the external microphone input. This is enough to power smaller microphones such as the mono lavalier mics, however it usually will not be enough to power a mic that also has a battery option...."
"The (GoPro) Media Team hasn't chosen any favorites yet, but they've been using the following two (expensive) lavalier mic's with decent results: Sennheiser MKE 400 and Compact Video Camera Shotgun Microphone ($199.95) and EMW Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone ($159.95)...." POSTER'S NOTE: I read on-line that the R
I like the Go Pro, Size suits Helmet mount very well. It also includes more mounts in the initial package then the Contour Roam. The menu system takes a bit of adjustment, but at least it allows you to change settings outside of using a computer.
Picture quality is excellent. You do get odd blurring under the water, but the dive housing fixes it. (more money to spend).
The instant on and off feature of the contour roam allows for better battery use. The Go Pro does allow for spare battery's and you will need it with a 32gb card. Takes about 2 battery's to fully use all the storage. With the contour I had to bring an external Charger to charge it back up.
Both products are excellent. However, the Go Pro is more flexible.
I got it in the mail yesterday morning, and after charging it, hooked it up to my helmet and went for a ride at Duthie Hill Mountain Bike Park. It worked beautifully! The video quality was stunning, and with the SD card, it had no problem holding the hour+ of footage I shot.
This is the first action camera I've owned, so I really don't have anything to compare it to, but it seems to do everything it's supposed to, which is good enough for me!
Very impressed, very satisfied. Would highly recommend.
I bought the motorsport version because I autocross and go to track days. But the gopro and videos i've seen on youtube inspired me to make a video while backpacking up Mt. Lemmon near Tucson. I brought the go pro along side my DSLR. While on the hike and also while editing the video (my first major editing project) I felt more and more that I should have just left the DSLR at home and just used the gopro exclusively.
The only con I found is the blur with underwater shots and how expensive is the diving housing but for everything else it works as expected.
The GoPro: Outdoor Edition is probably the best option to buy, it has everything to make your videos look awesome wherever you mount it.
What you have to buy without the GoPro is the Handlebar Mount, it's essential to have it.
Just carry it with you everywhere, to film everything.
to his car when he whips through winding roads here on Maryland's Eastern Shore. Great results.
1. 90 degree FOV is only available for 1080p, not other format. This is different from what their specifications claim. Very often, 90 degree FOV is the most useful for car dash board. Other wider FOV would include the car frame and hood, plus distortion. 1080p is very memory-consuming. In many situations there is no need for 1080p. But you'd be stuck with a super-wide FOV.
2. there is no live view, so that the user has no idea how the video would turn out. Very much at the mercy of the super wide angle lens.
3. very difficult to change battery. Every time I have to use some hard object like a key or knife just to remove the battery.
Battery life is not good, only acceptable. Its only selling point is light-weight plus reasonably good video quality. Overall, it does not warrant a ~$250 price tag
but, when updated,.. CRASH !!!
camera now frozen and not working. contacted GoPro, still no answer.
GoPro HD HERO2: Motorsports Edition (2011 Model)
1. i already have a contour roam
2. hd3 is out there(the improvement is huge, as long as you get a working one)
3. i wanted it for snorkelling, but the design of its waterproof case is stupid (cant focus in the case)
so i sold it as a brand new unit.
