GoPro wide - the best sports cam - as seen in GIZMODO - Free SD card + FREE Shipping

Introducing the NEW 5 megapixel GoPro Motorsports HERO Wide Motorsports and racing camera. Sporting a new 5MP sensor, improved low light performance, faster "Photo every 2 seconds" mode, and mega-wide 170 degree lens... this is the highest performance HERO camera yet.

A Camera Built By Racers For Racers

Gopro cameras were initially invented by racing enthusiasts in Northern California for their own use. That is why the GoPro Hero Wide has the features you want in a car mounted video camera. Small, lightweight, wireless and wide angle.

You Need Wide Angle For That Immersive Effect

Most regular digital cameras only give you a 60 to 75 degree angle of view on the widest angle setting. The Gopro Motorsports Hero Wide has the industrie's widest angle lens at an astounding 170º wide angle!
Gopro's ultra wide angle of view gives the viewer a much fuller sense of speed and produces way more immersive point of view videos and photos of the kind you see on tv racing broadcasts.

Is Your Regular Camera Tough Enough To Handle the Road?

The new Gopro Motosports Hero 5mp has been upgraded with even better reliability in ultra-high vibration environments with an entirely new internal circuit design.

Just being shock proof isn't enough when you're driving and recording in the rain. That's why the Gopro motosport hero comes with a tough, waterproof, clear polycarbonite shell that completely locks out dirt, dust and water so you never have to worry about damaging your camera when recording in dirty, muddy or rainy road conditions.

Many Car Mounting Options

What's a great motorsports camera without mounts?
Gopro Motorsport Hero comes with five quick-release adhesive mounts and a quick release industrial strength suction cup are all included. Suction cup is GoPro-approved for external high speed driving and riding, and is even strong enough to pull dents out of a car door! Adhesive mounts are removable but require purposeful removal by user. All are safe on painted surface.

Those aren't your only options though! Gopro makes more mounting options than any other POV camera manufacturer. You can use your Gopro Motosports cam for other uses with alternative mounts. Gopro has a chest mount, handlebar mounts, roll bar mounts, seat post and surf mounts and extra straps give you infinite possibilities for your mounting convenience.

Tiny Size, Big Features, Who Knew Heros Were This Tiny?

Truly less than palm sized, the Helmet Hero is only 1.25" x 1.75"x2.3". The Gopro Motosports Hero contains a 5MP sensor that can shoot up to a whopping 1945 photos with a 2GB SD card. You can get up to 56 minutes of video with audio. Exposure is automatic. Expandable up to 8GB SD with optional Firmware Upgrade. Free and Available Now! The special "photo every 2 seconds" mode gives great stop motion effects.
