Introducing the NEW GoPro Digital Hero 5 wrist camera for all sports. 5 megapixel resolution, improved low light performance, Wterproof up to 100 feet, faster "Photo every 2 seconds" mode, and popular (Narrow) 54 degree lens... this is the highest performance HERO camera yet.
GoPro's Hands Free Wrist Camera Let's You Hang Onto Your Gear
Gopro's Digital HERO 5 "Wrist HERO" is a clever and convenient solution to shooting candid videos or photos of your friends and family during your favorite activities—be it on the mountain or in the water.
Get Maximum Convenience With A Wrist Mount
The waterproof camera comes with a handy padded wrist mount. Perfect for surfing or snorkeling, hiking or climbing, the Digital HERO 5 makes it easy to have a camera at hand for video and photo opportunities that occur at times when traditional cameras are too inconvenient to use or carry.
The Wrist hero cam is worn securely against the wrist like a watch during sports activities. When you want to shoot, the special wrist mount design allows the camera to quickly pivot upwards for aiming the shot while still being securely attached to your wrist. This makes it easy to grab your surfboard, paddle, climbing rope or otherwise have both hands free without risking dropping your camera.
Gopro Digital Hero wrist camera can also be strapped to gear such as kayak paddles and the leading edge of kitesurfing kites. This way the kitesurfer can video their whole surfing session looking down from a bird's eye view, as though they had a private helicopter camera crew following them while they surf.
Fits All Wrist Sizes
The Digital HERO wrist camera has an adjustable waterproof neoprene velcro strap that easily adjusts to fit a range of sizes from a child's wrist to fitting over the ski jacket sleeve of an adult.
Waterproof, Shockproof
The camera's origins show up in the rugged waterproof design of the Gopro wrist cam. Surfers need a waterproof camera that can take the pounding waves, that's why the Gopro hero comes with a tough, waterproof, clear polycarbonite shell that completely locks out water, sand and dust so you never have to worry about damaging your camera when recording in the water, rain or muddy conditions.
So Many Mounting Options For Ultimate Expandability
The Digital HERO 5 Wrist Camera can be combined with the Helmet HERO Expansion Kit and Motorsports HERO Expansion Kit in order to mount the Digital HERO 5 to helmets, bikes, motor vehicles and other gear.
Easy To Use, The Camera Doesn't Get In The Way
The Gopro Hero Wrist cam contains a 5MP sensor that can shoot up to 1945 photos and up to 56 minutes of video with sound on a 2GB SD card. Exposure is automatic. All you need to do is strap the camera on your wrist or equipment and go! Future firmware upgrades will allow you to shoot double that with 4GB cards. The special "photo every 2 seconds" mode gives great stop motion effects.
A Great Deal For A Digital Waterproof Camera
The GoPro digital hero is small, lightweight, waterproof, wireless and easily mounts to your wrist or gear at a fraction of the price of a regular digital camera of equivalent size. Just the waterproof casing for a regular pocket digital camera easily costs more than the price of this whole camera kit!
