Casper Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 I bought it a few weeks ago and used it a handful of times. No scratches or anything. Works really well. I think I'm going to try out the Contour+ w/GPS and bluetooth though. I'm a techno-nerd, and those things are intriguing to me. http://gopro.com/cameras/hd-motorsports-hero-camera/The camera is $300. The card is $35. And the tripod mount is $10. So $345 worth of stuff.$250 for all of it. I'm firm on this price. I don't need to sell it, and am only even thinking about it so I could buy the other camera. If it doesn't sell, I'll just keep using it. It's a badass little camera.

buildit Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 I would keep it, wait till you try the coutour then sell it if you like the new video cam. That or set it up as a rear view camera. God knows we get really tired of looking at peoples asses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NinjaDoc Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 Keep it Casper, if you are not stranded for cash this is a good addition, one more set of eye means more angles more vision , and what tripod u bought for the 10$ I been looking for a good one with extender etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moto-Brian Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 ben-I have a contour with GPS. I'd be willing to trade if you think that might work or maybe we could trade and see which we like better. I want to try the GoPro and see if it is better...The thing I dislike about the Contour is the mounting system. It is definitely lacking compared to GoPro...Anyways, whatever you'd be interested in if anything... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have mine on the side of bike so it also grabs my bike in about a 1/5 of the screen. But they are so much more discrete and better looking IMHO than the GP. Need to try and fabricate a mount for a good front view Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need to try and fabricate a mount for a good front viewI actually like the small portion of the bike visible as a reference. I mount mine on the side, swingarm, tail, cockpit looking back at me, and through the windscreen.But, I haven't used it on a helmet yet. I also have a MTB handlebar mount and a couple of helmet strap mounts I wanna use in the woods and on the MX track... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinjaDoc Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 in some state mounting on helmet is against the law, weird right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is what I thought u had. But that would get expensive at $20 a pop. Was hoping u had the secret source:)By Velcro disc I mean the round disc mount that comes w it that tapes to the helmet, bike, etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
