GoPro HD HELMET Hero Wide

Hi Def. 1080P. No wires. Small. Waterproof.

The industry's first true high-definition 1080p wearable camera.

The HD Helmet HERO captures professional-grade 1080p, 960p, and 720p HD video at 30 and 60 frames per second (720p). Designed for film and TV professionals and consumer enthusiasts alike, GoPro's HD Helmet HERO camera boasts higher performance than action sports cameras costing ten times as much. And it's the size of a matchbox. 1920 x 1080 resolution!

The GoPro HD model comes standard with an internal RF transceiver that allows consumers to add a wireless stereo microphone and remote, both with a range of 30 feet. The remote control enables users to send a "preview" image wirelessly from the camera to the remote, allowing the user to preview the camera's aim and viewing angle prior to recording.

The RF stereo microphone marries HD sound to GoPro's professional HD video, creating one of the most convenient and capable image capture devices in the world. And you can wirelessly preview your shot with the RF remote control.

HD Version still features the industry's widest 170º wide angle lens and 5 megapixel sensor for the most immersive point of view video and photos possible from a wearable sports camera, period.

The matchbox-size camera comes standard with several mounting accessories for attaching it to your helmet, head, and favorite gear.

The HD HERO is not simply an upgrade from the original and beloved GoPro HERO. It also branches out with new features no other video camera offers, including rechargeable lithium-ion batteries that feature an industry first internal heating system to keep your battery warm for longer recording times in cold temperatures. Let it snow, let it snow...GoPro.

Other enhancements include louder audible and brighter visual indicators to communicate the camera's operational status. And now you can use up to a 32GB SD card to store over 8 hours of HD video. Want to plug in an external power source to keep your camera going longer than the 2.5 hours provided by the internal battery? No problem, you can do that, too.

Have a creative idea for a video that requires an external wired mic? Not a problem thanks to the external wired-mic jack built into the side of the camera. Sets up in seconds and is easily moved between different mount locations. Shoot automatically in "Photo every 2 seconds" mode. Use as a hand held camera, too. Shockproof and Waterproof to 100 feet/30 meters.

Five quick-release adhesive mounts and industrial strength suction cup are included. Suction cup is GoPro-approved for external high speed driving and riding, and is strong enough to pull dents out of a car door (unfortunately tested by GoPro). Adhesive mounts are removable but require purposeful removal by user. Safe on painted surface.

Additional expansion mounts available separately, including roll bar, handlebar/seatpost, chest harness, and surfboard mounts.
