GoPro – HD hero 2

You can’t go anywhere on the mountain without seeing someone with a GoPro strapped to the somewhere on their body. Filming the same one run over and over again then uploading them on youtube for no one to watch. With the release of the new HD Hero 2 they can now do it on a camera that’s way better than the orignal HD Hero, which lets face it, only losers use now. 

First off the camera is a heap easier to use. They have upgraded 3 digit code interface for a language based menu. They are also releasing something called the Wifi BacPac which will allow live broadcasting and camera control via wifi. 

It retails for $299 in the US and from what I can see it cost $399 if you want to buy it in shops here. That totally makes sense when you look at the dollar.
