77. GoPro HD HERO camera: Base Jump Movie

Learn about the new GoPro HD HERO® camera at gopro.com.

GoPro's HD Helmet HERO® camera shoots with such clarity you may develop a visceral need to strap on a parachute and follow Neil Amonson off a cliff.

Shot in 960p (1280x960) HD resolution. 960p is a 4:3 aspect ratio, which means you're going to see 25% more top/bottom viewing area than you do with 16:9 widescreen aspect ratios. Both are killer, but in the case of this base jumping movie, 960p shows more of the cliff as its passing underneath, and more of the scenery above and below. 16:9 would look good, too...just not as immersive.

    The HD HERO line of cameras is available for pre-order now from most online retailers and our own store at gopro.com.

    The cameras will begin shipping during the last week of October-2009.

    The quality is just amazing...! there is not anymore the black point for the sun?!! And the sound seems to be much much better...

    Anyway, I need one!!! Can I pre-order on your website? Because I live in France, so can you deliver here?

    I can't wait to make some new climbing or paragliding movie with this new cam.
    ;)

    was this video post processed at all? it seems like there was some sort of neutral density or polarizing filter applied to the video; the sky has so much contrast as do the objects and people, it is stunning. how was this accomplished, are there any manual controls to this camera?

    I belive this footage makes me realize that you need some guts to jump from up there... or at least some kind of addiction to some sort of internal hormone like noradrenaline.

    It is amazing footage all of it.
    Be good.
