********************
The GoPro MotorSport Hero WIDE is has all the mounting options of earlier MotorSports Heros, except for the fact that it has a MEGA WIDE ANGLE of 170 degrees and shoots photos at 5 Mega Pixels!
This new GoPro Action Camera is now sporting a new 5 MegaPixel Camera, improved low light performance, faster "photo every 2 seconds" mode, & a mega-wide 170 degree field of view which means that no longer do you just record your wheel or fairings, you'll now film the track, trees, spectators and the mountains. It is perfect to shoot yourself taking on track days at high velocities!!!
In the recording mode you can shoot up to 56 minutes on a 2Gb card and also capture loads of photos at 5MP. Of course the camera housing still allows the HERO to boast 30m waterproofing and the mounting brackets that come included in the package provide you with quick-release mounts for helmets, bikes, boards, boats, vehicles, or just about anything else that you want to attach it to.
The ActionCameras Bottom Line:
170 degrees is an incredibly wide angle and the picture quality is terrific too. We love this camera and recommend it.
