Here's a little acceleration vid from a few weeks with our new Go-Pro Camera

Looks cool. How fast were you guys going at top end?

Nice job Sax

What did you use to edit this so you can post that particular portion of the video?

I notice your "Go Pro" does not have that annoying tick in the video mine does.

here is another cool go-pro video. These little cameras are great.

Just ordered one of these, I can't wait till it gets here. How easy are they to aim? With no display I was thinking it may be tough to get the exact angle you want.

Very easy. The wide angle lens is very forgiving. You will learn quickly. Love mine.

So which GoPro model is the best to get? I see HD & non HD plus a wide angle.

I used Windows Live Movie Maker for Windows 7. Windows movie maker for xp does not except mpeg4 vids. There are editing programs that come with most apple comps that should work as well.

Not sure what the "ticking" in the sound is that you're experiencing. Which model do you have? What did Go-Pro say about it? Maybe a loose connection to the mic?

Get the HD version http://www.goprocamera.com/index.php...2&productid=30 Also, it does not come with any internal memory and will only run off of an sd card. An extra battery would be handy to have as well....... The vid quality is great in 1080p when running it through an hdmi to a 52" tv.

I have the Go Pro HD and the tick is in the video. It will flow fine for about 4 seconds and it will skip like it stops recording for a second or so. Makes watching kind of notchy.

Never asked Go Pro, they put in their on line info that it is the play back from the camera but if I save the file to the hard drive it still does it.

Nice vid, what river is that?

Looks good Jason, tell Pop I said hi. Boat looks good. Need more sound of those PSI's so i can get the what's it going to sound like feeling. You now what I mean. Bob

I have an HD version as well. I leave it in the r3 setting which shoots wide angle, 720p but at 60 frames per second which looks a lot smoother and can be edited for slow motion.

Go to the support page of the GoProCamera Website and they will have a link to a free program called MPEG Streamclip. That will allow you to convert the mp4's to .mov files. If you max out the quality, get ready for a 15 fold increase in file size! I edit my vids in my Mac using Final Cut Pro and because the Audio is kinda poo, I put it in ProTools and beef it up. The ticking you might hear is the camera shifting a bit inside the casing. All it takes is a little bump and that will translate into a pretty loud sound. Mine squeaks a bit.

Here is a couple of edited vids I did from my jet-ski. Select 720p for best quality.
