ContourHD, an HD camera for extreme
Apr 28, 2009 Camera
I’ve certainly seen more than once some recordings where you can see exactly what I was watching the recording, filming sports or some interesting angle on the inside (or outside) of a car or motorbike. If you have always dreamed of doing this kind of videos we will soon have a product to market that will allow us to make an affordable price and quality more than acceptable.
The ContourHD camera will you provide this type of recordings. The design and size is perfect to place anywhere: a case on the dashboard of the car near the exhaust pipe of the bike put your limits. The camera has Trail Mounts technology, it will be easy to place anywhere.
The ContourHD is capable of recording video in high definition (1280 x 720) at 30 frames per second, it has option for a lower quality recording can increase up to 60 fps. It is capable of supporting up to 16GB of memory via microSD cards which can record up to 8 hours in HD and 16 hours in case of opting for a lower resolution. Resistant to water and make the videos encoded with the H.264 codec for high definition. Admits a slow rotation to 135 degrees and has a weight of 116 grams.
Perhaps the biggest hits you find is that your battery will provide 2 hours of battery life when we are recording in SD reduced when using the recording in high definition. Goes on sale during the month of May in the U.S. and currently do not know where to reach other markets. The approximate price will be around 230 euros.

Those are some nice tech specs. Not bad for such a small camera. And its all self contained. By they way the sample video looks great. Thanks for the information about the ContourHD
