Actually, there is still hope for Contour cameras, news from the
source:
This
is great in my opinion. I currently run the Contour +2, the newest of
the cameras. In my opinion the Contour is such a better camera than a
GoPro. (not to offend anyone that has them..)
The
Contour lens rotates so you can mount it anyway you want and still shoot
'level'.
It
is slim in the direction it is filming. Great for helmet cam.
Bluetooth
to your phone to preview your shot, remote start/stop, adjust recording
settings, etc..
Built
in GPS that you can do just about anything with. Speed, altitude, distance,
etc..
Audio
jack to plug in cockpit communication.
Big
on/off button can be run with gloves. Easy to tell if it is on or off.
Also you don't have turn it on, just slide the record button and it
turns on and starts recording.
Anyway,
I sound like a sales guy.. I just hate it when a product with less
quality bullies the underdog (with a better product) out of the market with
epic tons of money.
This
was the last video I shot with Contour cameras, 49 airplane NFL flyover:
Still
working on my Reno video..
