Developed for professional use, but at
a consumer price, the HD HERO line of wearable cameras capture full HD video
rivaling cameras costing 10x the price. How? Our team consists of some of
the the brightest minds in Silicon Valley who also happen to be obsessed
with outdoor sports, race cars, and all things moto. Athletic super geeks?
Indeed.
GOPRO
MOTORSPORTS HD HERO COMPONENTS
GoPro’s HD Motorsports HERO is the
world’s highest performance 1080p HD on-board video and still photo
camera. Professional quality 1080p, 960p, and 720p HD resolutions
record at 30 frames per second (60 fps in 720p). The HD Motorsports
HERO easily mounts to any helmet, motorcycle, ATV, car, plane, jet
ski, boat, snowmobile or other vehicle. The camera’s quick-release
mounting design makes it easy to re-position the camera around your
vehicle for professional quality HD video from several angles.
Record up to 2.5 hours on a
single charge and up to 9 hours total on a 32GB SD card (not
included).
Included are mounts for two
helmets and three vehicles, as well as a suction cup for maximum
versatility and convenience. The housing is waterproof to 180’ / 60m.
GoPro's obsession with sound has
conquered the wind. At 85 mph on a motorcycle, you’ll enjoy the
throaty sound of your motor, not the wind. Inside even the quietest
street cars, hear the pull of your motor...not the drone of the wind
and road.
Included is a 1100mAh
rechargeable lithium-ion battery that lasts for up to 2.5 hours of
constant recording. With optional accessories, you can also plug the
camera into a wall outlet, cigarette lighter, or with any
USB-compatible power adapter, wire it directly to your vehicle’s
electrical system. The battery will charge while you record.
The camera can also shoot
automatic 5MP photos at 2/5/10/30 and 60 second intervals during your
drive or ride, hands free. Press the shutter button once and record up
to 2.5 hours of poster-print quality photos.
Waterproof to 180’ / 60m and
protected from rocks and other hazards thanks to its removable
polycarbonate housing. Replacement housings and lens kits are
available, making repairs or refurbishing your HD HERO camera
affordable and convenient. It's a GoPro...go for it.™

5MP Photos, Automatically
HD HERO cameras can shoot
hands-free, 5 megapixel photos automatically at 2 / 5 / 10 / 30 / and
60 second intervals until the batteries die or the SD card is full
(2.5 hours). Or set it to single shot, triple shot, or self timer for
more traditional photo taking.
Audio Excellence
We’ve invested more in the HD
HERO camera's sound system than most companies spend on their entire
camera development. You’ll only be hearing the sounds of your sport,
not the howl of the wind. How? Obsessive audio engineering and an
understanding that good sound is as important as good video.
Rechargeable Lithium-Ion, Built
in Battery Warmer
The rechargeable 1100mAh
lithium-ion battery (included) lasts for 2.5 hours of constant
recording. It can be recharged to 80% capacity in just 2 hours when
plugged into a computer’s USB port, or in 1 hour when plugged into a
USB compatible wall or car charger. Camera can also be used while
charging...handy on road trips where it's fun to leave the camera
rolling. Camera also features an integrated battery heating system for
keeping your battery warm in winter activities.

Shockproof, Bombproof,
Waterproof to 180’ / 60m
Don’t let a little water, or
even a ton of water get in the way of getting the shot. Proven in
heavy surf from Hawaii to Tahiti, Southern Mexico to Northern
California, HD HERO cameras can handle it thanks their highly
engineered polycarbonate exoskeletal housing. Waterproof to 180’ / 60m
and tough enough to take a spin across the asphalt, GoPos are built to
take a beating. Replacement lens kits are also available for $20, so
there’s little worry of scratching the tempered glass lens while going
for glory. Trash the housing in a massive crash? Replacements are
available for $40. It’s a GoPro...go for it.
