Helmet Cameras take HD videos

Technology has reached the video camera world when it comes to motorcycle riding and racing in the form of the GoPro hero camera.


 

The camera is very compact weighing in at just over 3 ounces and measuring 1.6” x 2.4” x 1.2”. The HD version sells for $299 and can hold up to 2.5 hours of video on a single charge and up to 9.0 hours with an optional 32 GB SD card. If you don’t need HD, the basic GoPro Hero sells for $179.  It can shoot the same amount of video as the HD model, just at a lower quality. If you’re not sure what to get that special someone for Christmas, this may be just the ticket.

The GoPro camera is available at Contra Costa Powersports and other motorcycle dealers.
