Product description

GoPro's HD Motorsports HERO is the world's highest performance 1080p HD on-board video and still photo camera. Professional quality 1080p, 960p and 720p HD resolutions record at 30 frames per second (60 fps in 720p). The HD Motorsports HERO easily mounts to any helmet, motorcycle, ATV, car, plane, jet ski, boat, snowmobile or other vehicle. The camera's quick-release mounting design makes it easy to re-position the camera around your vehicle for professional quality HD video from several angles. Record up to 2.5 hours on a single charge and up to 9 hours total on a 32GB SD card (not included). Included are mounts for two helmets and three vehicles, as well as a suction cup for maximum versatility and convenience. The housing is waterproof to 180' / 60m. GoPro's obsession with sound has conquered the wind. At 85 mph on a motorcycle, you'll enjoy the throaty sound of your motor, not the wind. Inside even the quietest street cars, hear the pull of your motor...not the drone of the wind and road. Included is a 1100mAh rechargeable lithium-ion battery that lasts for up to 2.5 hours of constant recording. With optional accessories, you can also plug the camera into a wall outlet, cigarette lighter, or with any USB-compatible power adapter, wire it directly to your vehicle's electrical system. The battery will charge while you record. The camera can also shoot automatic 5MP photos at 2/5/10/30 and 60 second intervals during your drive or ride, hands free. Pre

Customer reviews

« Best sports camera I've ever used »

I am extremely happy with this camera. I use it on my GSXR-1000 in the twisty roads for great action HD video as well as mount it to my radio controlled sailplane for great HD video of the flying area. The picture quality is astounding and shake free. The video is eye watering on a plasma TV or wide screen projector during playback.

The kit is very complete with a large assortment of mounts. I'm surprised that there are so many mounts and that they don't try to charge extra for them in an "additional" kit. Supposedly the camera is waterproof to 180 feet and comes in a waterproof primary case (that can be removed).

Overall, I don't know how they can deliver so much product for so little cost, I am completely happy....get your own :)

« YOU know how the present this as the perfect camera that can do just about anything »

They are not lying to you. ITS AWESOME! Worth every penny. The battery last for ever...but I would recommend buying another just in case. And as far as SD cards.. The Kingston level 4 card work perfect....just plug it in and it works...doesn't work well in really low light for obvious reasons ..but in normal light..wow, this camera is crisp, little vibration hitting roots with a mountain bike, amazing on a motor bike and...if you do pranks on people, this camera is awesome, it has stealth mode, no sound or blinking red light, its so small and picks up sound, last forever and you can edit the video right on you software that comes with most computers now... this camera can be used for time laps, just a normal camera, all kinds of video...i dont know....just...every once in a while...someone makes a product that is GREAT and this product rocks in every way, its water proof soooooo deep as well.

« HD Hero Camera »

This is a really great camera, I was really impressed with the over load of different mounts and accessories it came with. I am however dissapointed in one fact. After trying to use this camera, I noticed that my mac wasn't giving me an option to import photos and videos, this is because the company fails to give you a memory card with your purcahse, which they eventually hit you up another 30 bucks afterwords.

« I take this thing everywhere! »

What can I say about this product? It's incredible! 1080p at 30 and 720p at 60? Plus timelapses you can set at 2, 5, 10, 30, and 60 second intervals? This is a great camera to have in your bag. Plus it goes underwater! Possibilities are endless. Underwater timelapse anyone? Why yes please!

The menu is a little tricky to navigate since all you have is a tiny lcd on the front, but once you learn what means what, it's pretty simple... just a lot of button clicking!

I find myself buying more and more accessories for it to mount it to different things. Like the chest strap and bike mount.

Pure genius in a tiny little box!

« Incredible piece of equipment! »

If you're into sports, extreme activities, flying, racing, running, or whatever involves action you must have this little camera. It's little and light but yet it records amazing quality video, with great sound. You can place it almost anywhere you want and it will for sure record thrilling videos.

I use it in my flight trainning for recording my flying experience.
