will trade contour roam for go pro hero 2

It doesn't seem to capture the entire picture like the gopro. I kinda like the wider lens on the gopro. I mounted the contour on top of my helmet, not bad but once mounted it cannot be moved up or down only side to side. You have to mount it on the side of the helmet to be able to move it up or down. Gibson, what mount did you use on your helmet? Maybe i should try moving it to a side mount.

Wow I didn't realize that the new gopro's were that much. Tree how did you mount yours?
 
I side mounted it with the included swivel. I have been debating mounting the profile mount, the thinner one that was included, on my trim saw.
 
side mount here, and change the setting to 720p, still real good quality, 1080p is 125 degrees, 720p is 175 degrees, as much as the go pro easily.

1080p is good on a big screen, like 40" or bigger, 720p is great.
 
remember the good old days when Uncle Walt and Aunt Phyllis would bore you with their slide show or photos from their latest trip to Boca Raton?

GoPro's are gonna make those slideshows seem like the Salad Days...
 
remember that with a wide view on the 720 p settings your hard hat will be in the picture....

that's why I shoot everything in 1080p. and the contour is nice and flat compared to the go por bulky hard hat mount.

shoot some vids in different settings and find out what's best for you.
