The world's smallest, wireless on-board video camera. Standard lens version. The Motorsports HERO quick-release attaches to helmets, cars, motorcycles, boats, planes, etc. Features a 54º degree viewing-angle lens and 5 megapixel sensor. Ideal for mounting on your car or motorcycle front/rear fender for filming other vehicles that may be in close formation. Also ideal as an interior roll bar mounted car camera, for the classic center cabin, roll bar mounted view out the front windshield. Sets up in seconds and is easily moved between different mount locations. Shoot 56 minutes of high-resolution video and 5 megapixel photos automatically in "Photo every 2 seconds" mode. Use as a hand held camera, too. Shockproof and waterproof to 100 feet/30 meters. Based on the best selling original 3MP Motorsports HERO camera, this updated 5MP Motorsports HERO camera features improved video, photo, audio, and low light performance. Reliability in ultra-high vibration environments has been improved with an entirely new internal circuit design. Battery life is improved to 3 hours of video record time when using Lithium batteries and 2 hours when using NiMH rechargeable batteries. Five quick-release adhesive mounts and industrial strength suction cup are included. Suction cup is GoPro-approved for external high speed driving and riding, and is strong enough to pull dents out of a car door (unfortunately tested by GoPro). Adhesive mounts are removable but require purposeful removal by user. Safe on painted surface. Additional expansion mounts available separately, including roll bar, handlebar/seatpost, chest harness, and surfboard mounts. For MX, open wheel auto racing, and motorsports filming where wide angle immersion is the goal, the wide angle lens Motorsports HERO Wide camera is recommended.
