Looks good...I have the non-HD Hero Cam,I think I will upgrade.

PS did you have the gasket removed, if not then try it that way...you might get more sound.

 

No, the gasket was still installed... I will try that next time. Thanks for the advice.

I'll also test a few more mounting positions.

It's definitely worth the upgrade

 

The only thing that's holding me back from getting a GoPro is that it doesn't have a view finder. You just have to point and pray you're getting a good shot.

 

I love the go pro's wide angle lens but couldn't justify the cost. Instead I bought a $100 digicam with HD capable video. Threw in an 8gb SD card and a suction mount totaling $30. The suction mount is the same as the one the Go Pro comes with but can mount to any camera. Works well and I saved $100 over the Go Pro.

You can see the video's at http://www.youtube.com/commbubba19

 

Mine has a viewfinder.

 

The HD will have a plug-in accessory screen a little later.

Commbubba19, did you disable the sound or is it N/A on the camera?

 

I hear the sounds on Commbubbas videos.

 

OK so I'm hoping that I'm retarded here so I can buy one. I just looked at pictures of a GoPro HD HERO on the GoPro site and I do not see a viewfinder.

 

I did a little research and the old gopro has a little viewfinder that has been described as pretty much useless. The gopro hd does not have a viewfinder but this sping they are coming out with a LCD screen that attaches to the back of the camera.

 

I also have the GoPro HD Motorsports. I took pictures underwater in the Caribbean last week. Waiting for an AutoX to show what it is really all about. I have a Sandisk Extreme 16GB SD card. I also bought the head strap.
