Go Pro HD HERO on a microlight.

Posted by: Darren | Comments (4)

The first movie using the new Go Pro HD Hero camera. Resolution is set to 1280 x 720 at 30 frames per second The camera is mounted to the control bar without any vibration repression material being applied to the mount itself or the bar. When using a regular video camera with the same mount, the footage was so badly distorted it was rendered useless to us! In our next configuration we will be testing the best non-OEM bar mount and hopefully we will get even less vibration thus the ability to mount the camera in many different places ie all the bars available on a Microlight.
