Got a Go-Pro car camera

The Go-Pro comes in a pretty neat little package with various mounts. I'm still trying to get the sound to come through without static.

Here's a Z cruise vid.... (it may be long enough to bore you)

Got a ride-along for some drifting practice. I'm not driving, and it's my point-n-shoot camera.

Went to the Streets of Willow on 050110. I've pretty much decided that I don't like the GoPro. I've done all that I can think of with the sound and it's still static.

Did you get the regular, or the HD, version? I'm starting to consider this myself...

I just got the regular. From what I know the HD version will give you a larger image but not much of a better overall video. The focal length is around 3 feet on both. I can't get rid of the static in the audio. My last resort to to contact GoPro.

I just ordered me the HD one last night since I like the rechargeable battery. Have you tried recording video on something without an engine? I'm wondering if the static noise is caused by some kind of EM noise generated by your car.

The sound is O.K...... I had lent it to a friend and didn't realize that he changed the audio settings. For use in your car, you'll want to remove the rubber seal in the case, and then have the audio set to low.
