Thread: GoPro Hero2 and Wifi Remote

Just so everyone knows as per Drovers question...all accessories fit both the hero and the hero2. when they bought out the hero 2 they deliberality never changed the dimensions so that accessories already available would fit.

for those thinking about buying wifi for the hero my undertanding is it will fit but you will not be able to stream via the app as this wont be compatible.

the contour GPS was a contemporary of the original go pro - things have changed in the last few years ;-)

Anyway, the newest models of both brands have really cool features such as 120 FPS in 720p or 60 fps in 1080p... the days of standalone video cameras are long gone IMHO...

The GoPro and Contour are the best cameras on the market now I think, both are extremely versetile, can be used indoors and out and simple to use, take great action videos and high quality photos too, do time delay photos and much more.

You really can't go wrong with either.

sounds like the Apple v Android battle

Hey Lou,
how much do the wifi backpacks go for and how did you get it into Oz, the website says they are not yet available her as they are still pending approval (i assume for the frequency the Wifi runs on), and therefore they won't ship here.

some of my gopro clips from the outback heritage drive-

barney they are available in Oz now they have been approved..I believe the combo kit is around the 150 mark I didnt pay that as I got it through a friend however maybe ask baz I assume he bought his here. They had to go through a different process of compliance because they are classed as a transmitting device.

I paid $132 off Ebay, delivered to my door in 2 days, then $314 for the GoPro Motorsport package, including a 32Gig card, same delivery time.

finally got mine out and performed all the updates etc was a bit stressfu to start with as it didnt all go according to the step by steps so I uninstalled cineform and resinstalled and tried again all good this time. whooop!!! just been playing with it.

its nothing fancy and is just a remote but hey its cool and I cant wait for the app to come out
