this was my boy's first attempt at a video, we have not tried the H/D setting yet.

Yeah... feedback is great. The Contour connects to Android and iPhones via BlueTooth. Once connected, you can view video, and make changes to the camera settings.

I didn't mean to spark another Gopro vs "x brand pov" camera discusion. Ive been using Gopro for a while and these are my thoughts.

Although it is ugly as a helmet cam it functions very well as an all around POV cam from an under water cam to the tip of a redbull plane. The contour has great features like bluetooth but seems like this new version of Gopro will have that too coming this winter with a bluetooth bacpac. I think if you want more than a helmet cam then Gopro is the ticket if all you want is a helmet cam id use a lipstick style cam probably like the contour. Mine has been on my bikes, underneath 100mph+ cars, snowboarding, dipped in cold fjords of norway and tossed around and dropped many times. I even gave it to my 1 y/o niece and it survived! I love it and look forward to all the future products and expansions.

All cameras have good and bad points, I agree the gopro has a fantastic picture, and the new Drift is black, id like to talk to the genius who thought a black off road camera was a good idea, we get what is best for our needs.I know if I am in 300 feet of water a leaky camera is the least of my problems lol
