The GoPro HD Hero2 MotorSports Edition is the newest edition Camera in the GoPro product line. This Camera has many great new features that the original GoPro lacked. Keeping the same exact size as the previous camera allows you to have all the new advanced features and still use the old mounting hardware you have already purchased.
This Camera has been stunning the world, with its fantastic video quality, and the unbelievable photo quality, for a practically indestructible sports camera. It has been used on many TV shows and has professional grade filming abilities, all packed into this very small case for a highly affordable price.
What Can The GoPro Be Used For?
The GoPro HD Hero2 Motorsports Edition can be mounted on almost anything, with one of the many mounting devices. This camera was designed to be able to film from an athlete’s first person point of view, filming all of their extreme sports and activities. Originally designed to mount of surf boards, the motorsports edition allows you to mount it to cars, motorcycles, snowboards, snowboard helmets, and anything else that has a surface that one of the mounts can be a-fixed to.
This camera has a viewing angle of 170 degrees, so you can hold the camera and capture yourself and the background, without having anything cut out. It has a “fish eye” lens that sticks out the front of the camera and if you can see the lens, most likely the lens see’s you and will be recording it. This is a great feature you don’t find on any other cameras.
Improved Features
With its filming capability of 60 fps and up to 1080p video quality there is not much more you can ask for. The photos can be shot in 11mp and set to take a photo for a specified interval amount of time. The GoPro HD Hero2 has twice as fast image processor as the original and has 2x sharper glass lens. They also have improved the photo quality when filming in low light atmospheres.
The Lcd BacPac is attachable so you can view your footage and also watch it immediately on play back or you can use the wifi BacPac to stream directly to a computer or TV. With the WiFi BacPac you can also control the camera with a remote to start recording and stop recording.
Overall an Amazing Camera
GoPro really has thought of almost everything when designing this camera. They have managed to include so many critical features and functions to get great quality photos, but have kept the camera size very small and light weight.
I own a GoPro and would recommend it to anyone. I bought the original GoPro HD and now have the GoPro Hd Hero2. Both are great cameras and all the reviews about the cameras are great. Very few people have had any problems with the camera and that shows that it is a quality product as well as extremely versatile.
