 "Works GREAT" 2009-06-29

I will have to come back on and edit this so I can leave a video. The camera works great. And for all of you out there an 8GB card will work in this.

 "Unacceptable Dropped Frames" 2009-06-26
By Jack Olson (Redmond, Wa USA)
I received my Gopro 170 a day ago and I would say to anyone interested in this unit to look elsewhere. I made several attempts to get a satisfactory image but the camera skips frames and is not satisfactory to use even on YouTube. The specifications say it is 30 fps but the dropped frame rate is very high on the unit I received. The image isn't all that sharp and the colors are high contrast. As I said this camera is only a novelty and anyone that requires even a minimum of quality and stability will be extremely disappointed in this toy. I will be returning my Gopro tomorrow; it is hard to believe that anyone else would not do the same.



The Gopro is the sixth video camera I have owned and is the only one I have ever returned. All of the video I have seen made by the GoPro has the dropped frame issue to some extent although not as extreme as the unit I received.

 "Not too bad of a product" 2009-05-30
By J. Beaule (Randolph, MA USA)
I like this little video/camera. It's not crystal clear but you get the idea.

The batteries do not last as long as they say they do for video. I use it for drag racing and it's mounted on my dash. After about 20 minutes or so of video taping I needed to replace the batteries. I was unimpressed with this. Thankfully there only 2 AAA's. I bring a pack of 8 AAA's with me in case. Sound is good and easy hook up to any tv or camcorder. Down side with video you can't FF or Rewind the video. I have not tried using it to take pictures. But it is a neat little package which I am still glad I purchased it. To me the price was worth it.

Thanks.

Gopro Motorsports HERO WIDE 5 Megapixel 170 Degree Lens Camera (Silver)



I was excited to see the video clips on the Gopro site. My use is on a Motorcycle. When I go the product, I found the display a bit disappointing. It is very small and you read it upside down as you might look at the camera with the 'Hero' logo in the lower right corner. The unit itself is somewhat simple in design and doesn't give you the feeling of the quality in even the most common digital camera's you would buy today. Two double AAA batteries go in the back with a cover that you slide off. This cover has a tendancy to slide off while general handling of the camera and is annoying. Do not, let me repeat, Do not use alkaline batteries in the camera-- they don't function properly. With fresh batteries my unit will only run for a short while and then shut off. It also has very erratic operation. Changing to the recommended Eveready NI-MH batteries solved the problem and although not cheap with the charger and all, they are necessary.



The quality of video is ok, but does not work well in low light. This camera does not adjust well to varying light conditions and should generally be used in brighter conditions or full sun. The camera has no anti-shake capabilities so on a motorcycle things are jerky. Make sure you want the 170 deg wide angle as everything is noticably bent with the wide angle even in the focal portion of the picture. And, don't expect clear audio--you won't get it here. The audio quality is terrible. Even with the camera out of the protective waterproof case, there is a constant buzzing noise and the volume is faint even if you talk right in the microphone. In the case on a motorcycle, the sound is unuseable and unrealistic.



For digital cameras these days, being limited to a 2gb card doesn't make sense. The entry level cameras will take 8gb at this point. In talking with GoPro tech support, they are working on a patch to allow 4gb cards, but it seems like a major task for them. All in all, I am disappointed in the quality and performance of their newest product.
