Cameras Videography By Nick / 26th October 2011 Share Tweet Share The New Wearable POV Camera from Go ProThe Go Pro Hero HD is a small, lightweight but strong HD video helmet camera. In fact it not only attaches to your crash helmet, but many places: Your rocket (couldn't find a surfboard icon ; ) Pushbike Skis Car Wheelchair!…pretty much anywhere.Having worn a similar camera on my epic Enduro Africa adventure, I know just how "big" these cameras will become. I got some superb, on-board" footage of a once in a lifetime event!In the dim and distant past, I was a skydiver training to be a cameraman. Back then, before all this new technology, you had one choice for photography and another for video.For stills, you had to strap a DSLR to your head and take photos with a shutter release between your teeth. For video, you would have a digicam attached to the side of your head.Check out this bonkers image of Bob Sinclair, a pioneer of action photo and video!Photo credit: http://parachutistonline.comhttp://parachutistonline.com/So you can see, people have been trying to "invent" action cameras for a while. I think Go Pro have the innovation and technology to really push this forward.Anyway, rather than do a full review here, you can see my simple unboxing ceremony below. In this video, I explain a little more about this cool little camera.
