HD Helmet Hero Camera - Description
GoPro’s HD Helmet HERO is
the world’s highest performance wearable 1080p HD video and still photo camera.
Professional quality 1080p / 960p / 720p HD resolutions record at 30 and 60
frames per second (60 fps in 720p). Record up to 2.5 hours on a single charge
and up to 9 hours total on a 32GB SD card (not included).
The camera can also shoot
automatic 5MP photos at 2/5/10/30 and 60 second intervals during your activity,
hands free. Press the shutter button once at the start of your activity and
record up to 2.5 hours of poster-print quality photos of you and your friends,
living it up.
Included are mounts for
attaching the camera to three helmets and two pieces of gear or vehicles, as
well as a head strap allowing you to wear the camera like a headlamp. You can
also pull this strap over helmets for easy camera sharing between friends. One
of the above mentioned helmet mounts is a lace-through strap-mount designed for
vented helmets.
The HD Helmet HERO is
compatible with all other GoPro HERO camera mounting accessories, so it's very
easy to expand the functionality of your camera to also suction cup to
vehicles, clamp to bike handlebars and seat posts, mount to surfboards, and
even be worn on the wrist or chest.
Waterproof to 180’ / 60m and protected from
rocks and other hazards thanks to its removable polycarbonate housing.
Replacement housings and lens kits are available, making repairs or
refurbishing your HD HERO camera affordable and convenient. It's a GoPro...go for it.™

Be a HERO...GoPro, in HD.
Developed for professional
use, but at a consumer price, the HD HERO line of wearable cameras capture full
HD video rivaling cameras costing 10x the price. How? Our team consists of some
of the the brightest minds in Silicon Valley
who also happen to be obsessed with outdoor sports, race cars, and all things
moto. Athletic super geeks? Indeed.
Professional Quality, Full HD Video
1080p, 960p, and 720p in 30
and 60 fps (720p). The HD HERO line of cameras offers three different HD
resolutions, giving you three filming modes to capture the best angles for any
given activity:
- 1080p:
1920x1080 True HD featuring a 127º angle of view, 30 fps, and 16:9
widescreen aspect ratio
- 960p:
1280x960 Ultra Wide and Tall HD featuring a 170º angle of view, 30 fps,
and 4:3 aspect ratio. See more of the action above and below than
widescreen16:9 resolutions can show.
- 720p:
1280x720 Ultra Wide HD featuring a 170º angle of view, both 30 and 60 fps,
and 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio
5MP Photos, Automatically
HD HERO cameras can shoot
hands-free, 5 megapixel photos automatically at 2 / 5 / 10 / 30 / and 60
second intervals until the batteries die or the SD card is full (2.5 hours). Or
set it to single shot, triple shot, or self timer for more traditional photo
taking.
Audio Excellence
We’ve invested more in the
HD HERO camera's sound system than most companies spend on their entire camera
development. You’ll only be hearing the sounds of your sport, not the howl of
the wind. How? Obsessive audio engineering and an understanding that good sound
is as important as good video.
Rechargeable Lithium-Ion, Built in Battery
Warmer
The rechargeable 1100mAh
lithium-ion battery (included) lasts for 2.5 hours of constant recording. It
can be recharged to 80% capacity in just 2 hours when plugged into a computer’s
USB port, or in 1 hour when plugged into a USB compatible wall or car charger.
Camera can also be used while charging...handy on road trips where it's fun to
leave the camera rolling. Camera also features an integrated battery heating
system for keeping your battery warm in winter activities.
Shockproof, Bombproof, Waterproof to 180’ / 60m
Don’t let a little water,
or even a ton of water get in the way of getting the shot. Proven in heavy surf
from Hawaii to Tahiti, Southern Mexico to Northern California, HD HERO cameras can handle it thanks
their highly engineered polycarbonate exoskeletal housing. Waterproof to 180’ / 60m and tough enough to
take a spin across the asphalt, GoPos are built to take a beating. Replacement
lens kits are also available for £19.99/ 25 Euros, so there’s little worry of
scratching the tempered glass lens while going for glory. Trash the housing in
a massive crash? Replacements are available for £35.99/ 40 Euros. It’s a
GoPro...go for it.
