What I Think about Other Wearable Cameras besides the Gopro Cameras
1
January 24th, 2012Computers, Photography, sports, sports equipmentIf you follow this blog you will see that I have written lots and lots about Gopro Cameras and where to get a deal on yours with available Gopro coupons. I would first like to comment that I was a little disappointed with the Gopro Hero 2 camera. Not because it’s not a good camera, but because they used it to replace and quickly phase out the original Gopro HD Hero which was a cheaper alternative. I find most of the highly touted options like a 11mp sensor and .5 Sec Time Lapse Mode are rarely used and would rather save $50-$100 for a Gopro the shoots same quality HD Video. FYI some vendors still have original gopro available at Original Gopro HD Hero Deals.
How does the Gopro compare to the Contour Cameras?? Contour Cameras are good cameras that also shoot excellent quality and are comparable in price. My honest opinion is that both are pretty equal. I think Gopro is more popular because of branding. I do find the Gopro has more mounting options, but the Contour does have a GPS model that is pretty cool, especially for jumpers that want a wearable camera, because it will track altitude and speed. You can save 10% off Contour with free coupon at Contour Camera Coupons.
How does the Gopro compare to Drift Innovation? The Drift Innovation has just been redone. I have never used one but if your not familiar with the Drift it does offer a ton of features. Sample videos I’ve seen are excellent. It has a built in LCD, rotatable lens. 9mp sensor, comes with remote, mirco HDMI, digital zoom and microphone jack. This unit goes for a little more at $369 but it does have a ton of features. I found the mounting options are the best for on the body, but if your doing something like biking you may want to take a look at this unit. The best deal I can find is $249 at Drift Innovations Coupons. This is a two day sale so you will have to decide quickly.
