Didn't someone here recently buy a Gopro?

[weedahoe]

I remember the thread but can't find it or who it was.

Someone speak up!

[adidasguy]

I bought one but never posted about it 
I can't post on every topic.

After watching many videos and reviews, I'm picking one up today.

Which one did you get? You like it?

I thought one of our Aussie brothers had bought one?

Its OK. Like all cheap cameras, it has rolling shutter issues with vibration.
Have to go professional camera and mounts to get rid of vibration when mounted to the bike. That would be an interesting project: anti-vibration isolation mount for a light weight camera on a bike. I suspect adding 2 pounds of mass to these little cameras (not just GP but all of them) would help with vibration.
I don't mount to the helmet.

Purchased bunch of RAM mounts, extra batteries and the monitor back. You need the monitor back to know where it is pointed.

All these small cameras are fish-eyed. I have a lens correction filter in Vegas Video that can straighten out close fish-eye things.

Got the #2 as the #3 was not out yet.

Mister and cods have them

[codajastal]

Yes I have a GoProHD and the DriftHD 1080P

Pete gs has a new camera. Not sure what type.

Don't want to be a stalker and look to find out.

Yama, I hear milk in the handlebars works for vibes. 

I use dehydrated water myself.

Cod, i think it was you i was thinking about.

I picked up a GoPro Hero 3 Black Edition today with almost every accessory there is. The previous owner said he used it once for his car and that was it. He had all kinds of mounts including suction cups. He had the wireless wifi remote and LCD touch/viewing screen. He even had a brand new extra battery. He had all the cables including a Rocket Fish micro HDMI for big screen playback. Its really nice. I will have to make a video or two and see how well it comes out.

thought it was air run through a vaccuum pump  . i know hte bb's worked in vibrations in handlebars, but not sure how it would affect a camera mounted to them.

You lucky bastard weed

[weedahoe]

^^^ LOL....Found him on CL. Had to travel 1.5hr to get it. Well worth it. Got it pretty cheap too.

[slipperymongoose]

I hate you just so you know hey lol. I want a couple of hero/hero 2's and a black for my helmet or a drift ghost

[weedahoe]

I was going to buy a Drift actually. I think they are nice also

[Janx101]

mmmmm drift ghost!!!

[codajastal]

GoPro has better picture than Drift but drift is better looking and easier to mount

[yamahonkawazuki]

drift would fit UNDER the goped deck. and be 6" give or take off the tarmac

I had a Sony action cam which I loved up right up to the point that it continuously fogged which pissed me off no end. It had all its own mounting hardware and could use go pro mounting hardware too which I liked. Check out the two vids I did, the footage hasn't been touched up at all. The nighttime performance is outstanding, Sony always do it well. As they would cause they did that x ray night vision camera.

[codajastal]

IMO the sony was shaZam!
