    http://www.goprocamera.com/

    Anyone have any experience with these? Thinking about buying one for my car.

    Thanks

    200$ seems pricy for a 5mp camera. But then again, to answer your q, "No, I have not dealt with these."

    Every day I wake up we drink a lot of coffee and watch the CNN
    Every day I wake up to a bowl of clover honey and let the locusts fly in.
    Lobsterbacks attack the town again
    Wrap all my things in aluminum
    Beams of darkness streak across the sky
    Pink rays from the ancient satellite
    Every time I look out my window same three dogs looking back at me.
    Every time I open my windows cranes fly in to terrorize me.

      works pretty well... we have one for our race car.... the in car camera is a better tool for learning, but it is more fun to watch when the camera is mounted under your bumper.

        I have one. Only done a few trial runs with drifitng in the snow, it takes a beating without any hiccups. Plan to use it often this summer.

            On my supermoto forum and dirbike forum thats the only thing they use. all the videos are amazing and I would have to say the only thing the camera lacks is sound. needs a wind sock on the mic or a remote mike to put somewhere else.

            awesome product

              I will agree, it does NOT like low light.

              And understanding the cryptic menu system (if you can even call it that) takes effort.

                  I'd go with a ChaseCam. I've spoken to the owner (Randy Chase) a few times and he's good people.

                    true - the menu is cryptic and sucks!

                    for some reason i have a problem with importing the videos into windows movie maker - i loose the sound. must be a codec issue, but everything seems to be there that is needed.

                      chasecam is much more $$$. i just picked up the chasecam + dvr with traqmate integration for my track car. can't wait to try it out.
