Video: Motorcycle vs. Car drift battle shot with RC car-mounted cameras

Posted by Andrey Malskiy Categories: Cameras, Transportation, Videos

Where else but on YouTube will you see a high-speed case that’s not VGA dash-cam quality, featuring shots taken using a Traxxas Slash VXL Ultimate R/C car-mounted GoPro Hero, a Canon 5D MKII, strapped to a helicopter, a Panasonic AF100, and a hacked Panasonic GH1? This video features something for all likes, but will definitely be appreciated by those who like a little speed, creative shots, and a little humor. Take a look at what the folks from Icon Motosports have been up to on their spare time.

Digital Hero 3 Takes a Dive

Posted by Sheila Franklin Categories: Cameras, Misc. Tech, Movies, Portable Audio / Video

GoPro’s Digital Hero 3 is a perfect answer/gift for those who surf, swim, or just like to play around at the beach. The 3 megapixel waterproof cam can flip up or lock-in flat, takes still photos and up to 54 minutes of 640 x 480 pixel video and sound with 16 Mb of internal memory (expandable up to 2GB with an SD card.) It can handle depths of 30 meters, is attachable to wrist, handlebars, ankle, etc. and can be used in always-on mode for simplicity in shooting. At a size of only 1.25 x 1.75 x 2.6-inches and a weight of 4.5 ounces, the Hero comes with 2 AAA batteries and can be hooked up to your PC by USB or RCA connection. You can find the camera at BB-Shopping for £99.99 (~$201.59.)
(Thanks, Ian)

CES 2007 Video: Digital Hero 3 Camera From GoPro

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Gizmatic, Short Bytes, Cameras, CES, CES 2007, Design, Features, Videocasts, Wireless / WiFi

We loved the concept of the GoPro Digital Hero 3 that we saw at CES. It’s a small digital camera that straps to your wrist. It’s ultra-secure, so no worries about dropping it, and the images look fantastic. Perfect when hiking, skiing, or sporting events when you want a camera near at all times but don’t want to have to worry about putting it away and taking it out repeatedly.
