Video Camera C63

Does anyone use this camera for filming with their car??

http://gopro.com/cameras/hd-hero2-motorsports-edition/

I used a friends to film some stuff for him and it was awesome! I think Im going to buy my own for the track and for filming some cool burnouts and drifts. If anyone else is interested in a wicked camera this is definitely the one to get! Im just wondering if anyone has an opinion on it before I buy one since I only used my friends for about an hour.

I have one and I love it...

Took me a while to learn to trust the mount, but haven't had any issues to date.

I'd recommend it - pretty easy to use and great quality video.

Been using a gopro for years. Great product!

Use it skiing, on the bike, car, at hockey, etc.. Works awesome.

Thanks guys! Should I get the LCD screen for the back? It seems like it would be nice to see what angle I am going to be filming.

I play hockey with a guy who uses one every week and mounts it on the boards. Here's a link to one of his vids if you want to get an idea for the quality.

I will apologize in advance for the quality of the hockey.

This is a fixed position at least shows you the clarity. The lighting in this rink is poor so, not much you can do about that.

We have all the GoPro products in stock so if you need anything be sure to shoot me a PM and I can get them out to you the same day.

This week we are getting a new car charger in for the GoPro, we are expecting it to arrive today or tomorrow.

Thanks-

I use one for practically everything, surfing, diving, biking, karting, trackdays. Best $200 I've spent.

GoPro is the way to go. It gives you that wide angle fish eye effect that you need for most sporting activities. I would have gotten it if I did not have my Kodak Playsport, for the price of the playsport you cant go wrong. It's what I used on my C63 cruising video and MTB riding.

instead of my helmet. Good thing about GoPro to is you buy it for how you will need it and you dont have to buy extra accessories.

Car Video is linked below.
