Videos from the new Go Pro

[switchback]

Picked up a Go Pro camera and made some videos at the ears. First attempts on the hood and then helmet. Whattya think?

I think the helmet is the way to go, unless you're gonna add a sound track. There was a low hum and vibration through my speakers when the cam was on the sled.

Kewl, idea thanks for the videos. I've actually been wanting to get one of these cameras, I like how you're playing with it.

Quick question though, is there a way to adjust the lighting on the camera? It seems that the videos are kind of dark.

Thanks

Yeah, I thought they were kinda dark too on the lower light days. Gonna look into that in the manual. I thought the helmet shots looked kind of odd, like I was 12' tall. I think a mount on the side of the helmet would be better than on top. I am 6'4" so I'm gonna try that route in a week or 2.

Yeah they did seem pretty tall, I wasn't sure if the lens was set that way to get more in the frame.

The ones on the sled would work, just have to figure out how to deaden the sound maybe, plus it seems like it kept coming loose and shifting down a tad.

Either way I like that you're doing this, cause I've got a few cameras I'm looking at, and it's nice to see how they perform, without the salesman telling you how good they are.

Cheers.
