| This product is outstanding, the vibration canceling effects are second to none. It takes a little getting use to the small icons in the front but other than that there are no problems with this product. Put it anywhere on the car and enjoy the footage later. |

| Picture quality is good. Use is not intuitive. Instructions are lacking in clarity and organzation. I discovered I can power it off its proprietary USB mini cable and a car lighter adapter purchased from another vendor online. The drawback is it must be removed it from protective clear box or else drill a hole in box. The USB cable is bundled with the RCA cables. A ferrite bead filter is molded in which dissallows seporation. Can not set time or date. GoPro promised firmware update for 4GB memory capability and has not delivered to date - April 09. Automatic memory overwrite feature would be a big plus. I saw it avertised for significantly less one week after I purchased it. Not thrilled, but not dissappointed either. |
[...] gives it 4.5 thumbs up!

| Overall, the GoPro Wide HERO camera was easy to use, worked well and captured good video and pics. Despite minor complaints about the mounting brackets for the handlebar and subpar audio, there's really nothing not to like about it. We'd recommend it highly, and it's a bargain compared to some other sports/helmet cams on the market. There are other options with more features and higher quality video, but the prices jump more than tw0-fold. For general cycling antics, the Wide HERO is a great camera, and the wide-angle lens helps add to the visual experience without distracting from the central image. A couple of our friends use this same model for motocross and love it, and we think you'll love it, too. Read the full review here: [...] |
Camera for Motorcycling?

I have used this now a few times and experienced some kinks. One is the necessity to use Lithium batteries (expensive) otherwise it will not work for more than a few minutes. Two is the vibrating base of a bike, it is returning a decent picture but I guess without stabilizing software it would be hard to eliminate some fuzziness. The lack of a info light/screen on the back of the camera makes it a little hard to know when it is on and when not. I accidentally went into single frame / picture mode and lost a lot of good video opportunities not knowing it was not filming.
Overall it is a good value for the money and I am happy I got it. |
