Congrats on the BASE race Neil. Though "fastest American" isn't something I'd be bragging about to the ladies...

Curious why the footage is in 4:3. I realize the HeroHD has several record resolutions. But why no demo shots in 16:9 (of your footage, I've seen the other 16:9 samples)?

I need for Malaysia, I leave in 18 days. Looks like I will be getting a HD GoPro after I get back. I guess I'll have to just get multiple shots of every jump.

what happened at 1:15? wheres the aftermath?


So is it worth the upgrade from the original gopro?

Nice image quality, but can the HD version handle shooting directly into the sun? The version I've got burns a black circle in the middle of the sun if it's in the frame.

The sample video had a couple of shots where the sun is at the border of the image for a moment, but not a single shot where the sun is clearly visible.

The new HD GoPRo can shoot directly into the sun with no black dot!

I was very imprssed with the light metering on the new camera. SD Gopro struggled with low light, the HD does not have this issue.

Biggest improvements are HD image, light metering, and upgraded sound performance.

What format is the video in? How does it compare to the ContourHD?
