Driver Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 HD pro 2, used one on a Downhill cycle recently and quality is awesome. Stood up to me falling off too ! Link to post Share on other sites
Danb Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 ive got the go pro hd hero motorsport - you can pick them up off amazon for around £165 delivered now.You can however get the new HD hero 2 motorsport for another £50 or so which has larger MP camera - so better quality.All depends on how much you want to spend, i ordered the roll cage mount for mine and a decent sd card and also the LCD screen which those 3 together come to over £120 in addition to buying the camera.I am very happy with the camera though and for what im using it for (track day footage for my own use) i dont see the need now in spending an extra £50 or so on the hero2 Link to post Share on other sites

Hou Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 These are crackig cameras, just depends how much use you will get out of it to make it worth while and if you need that quality. This was done on a £13 camera [media=]http://youtu.be/PWEE1gDtEqINot the best in the world I know but it was £13 with 4gb card, tie wrapped to the bumper so I wasn't worried if it came off and smashed Link to post Share on other sites
