Maybe you should pay for it first?

Lol, this is true, the meaning was that I my preferance is not to buy online.
As I want to be sure I have it before ShelbyFest.

If you have any large motorcycle shops nearby, you could try giving them a call too. The go pro cameras are really popular for bikes, and many have a display up in the shop

There are new gopros out now , 6meg 11meg and 12 meg

boxhead 03-11-2013 12:36 AM

Yeah, the Hero 3 silver is 11 meg

henrik 03-11-2013 01:32 AM

Go for the "Black edition" - it is much better, and remember external Mic.

That's not a bad price. I paid about that overseas. I got the hero 3 silver as well. Works well. Make sure you also buy a roll bar mount as well. Assuming that's where you want to mount it. The only problem I have is that the audio is mainly my noisy Bosch EFI fuel pump. Cheers Gregg

Before you jump in and buy a GO PRO, check out this video;

I used my sons' GO PRO once, great image, awful sound!
Plus the Zoom-H1 is half the price! Zoom H1 Audio Recorder & Accessory Kit Bundle - FXR002 | Videoguys Australia

The Zoom thingy is half the price, but only records sound.

Not much good when I want to see whats happening?

marco454v8 03-11-2013 05:44 PM

Sorry, my mistake- I thought it was cheap:(

Action Cameras - Video Cameras - JB Hi-Fi

Price is comparable to jb hifi

I just picked up a GoPro silver hero 3 at local Hardly Normal.
$360 inclusive of a 16Gb micro sim.

Doing updtaes and iphone app thingies now.
They did not have a roll bar mount, so I will look for one in Melbourne.

gjkrv8 03-12-2013 01:12 AM

Dave, I think JB Hifi have accessories like that.

Hey Boxhead....

I stopped using roll bar mounts on the Race Cobra about a year ago...
The "Suction Cup" mount that comes with the Go Pro is bloody awesome...I sit it in the middle, just behind my shoulder...and I zip tie it to the roll bar, just in case the suction ever gave up...but it NEVER moves.

Cheers,
Warren

I am just worried that my car does not have shiney smooth paint, so may struggle for an "airtight" seal

renovationinnov 03-12-2013 04:08 AM

box head just seen local junk mail
auto pro now sell " go pro " cameras & mounts for a simlar price as what you paid at hardly normal might be a worth a look

Rob. Smith 03-12-2013 06:36 AM

I'm a bit weary about the suction attachment and would probably put a lanyard on the camera as well. I watched a Ken Block video and saw several Go-Pro cameras bouncing off into the distance.

boxhead 03-12-2013 06:44 AM

Cheers, will check em out

Modena 03-12-2013 06:54 AM

If boxhead is going to drive around Winton like Ken Block, I will be bringing more than one camera :D
