Description

The GoPro HD Hero2 is an action sports stills and video camera housed in a tough case designed to be mounted on pretty much anything: head, chest, surfboard, car and even the odd balloon flight to the edge of space. The camera itself is a simple grey box containing a lot of technology for fast video processing. The 11 megapixel 1/2.3-inch sensor captures video in resolutions from 720p HD (1280 x 720 pixels) at 30 or 60 frames per second to...

1080p (1920 x 1089) at 30 frames per second in NTSC. The camera also records in PAL at 25 and 100 fps. Drop the resolution down to WVGA (848 x 480 pixels) and you can record up to 120 fps, perfect for super slow motion. It's the ability to capture high quality video when the camera's being tossed and tumbled that makes the GoPro HD Hero2: Outdoor Edition great, with the f/2.8 fixed focus lens providing up to 170 degrees field of view to capture the action going on around it.
