» Motorsport GoPro Camera
Capturing your favourite rideouts or track day action has just got a whole lot easier! Although traditional camcorders and digital cameras can be used, they are often heavy and difficult to mount. This dedicated kit is a superior option. The GoPro Motorsports Hero weighs only four ounces, yet is loaded with features. Included in the pack is a variety of fittings, from a suction mount to a range of clip-on kits for flat or curved surfaces. The camera is multi-adjustable and features a clever quick-release system, while the waterproof casing enables users to mount it inside or outside. It’s supplied with 16MB of internal memory and a 2GB SD card as well as lithium batteries so you can record up to an hour of action, complete with sound. Vibration and wind noise can cause distortion, so to overcome that the GoPro works on a low audio sensitivity, too. It also takes three megapixel digital stills, and can do so every five seconds. To view the results, you connect the supplied cable to a TV, or download it to a PC via the USB lead.
The clip above was filmed using the Go-Pro Camera. The film was shot around Cadwell Park on one of our customer track days, 25th May. Mounted securely on Ross' GSX-R750 the camera was put through it paces with fast speed straights and corners as well as a few wheelies and bumps going over the legendary mountain section. The image quality has been reduced to play on the web and would normally be a lot sharper when viewed directly from the camera.
