Just got a GoPro Motorsports extreme camera and experimenting with the different modes.

Here's a sped up / stop motion 2 min vid of a boring day at the office:

And here's a few scenes of video with some stop motion at the end with the camera mounted on a Corvette Z06:

I'm interested in a ton of different possibly uses for this camera - it's a neat little toy!

Very impressive camera, the footage looks a lot nicer then what I get with my ATC2K. I like that it is removable from the protective housing, that makes me think if the housing was damage somehow it could just be replaced.

Yep, there are several different mounts and extra housings available.

I've been playing with it some more this week and it really is cool - especially for the price.

Video, pics every 2 seconds, or pics ever 5 seconds, plus waterproof, shockproof, etc.

Took some pics today by just sticking it on the car like this...

Does it come with the mounts or are they all accessories??

I am considering getting something like this for off road use. :deal

The motorsports version comes with several mounts, and the suction cup is definitely strong enough so far...

Only issue I've had is that Windows Movie maker seems to mess up the W x H ratio when outputting to HD... weird? :scratch :dunno

I've got the GoPro Hero also and ordered the handle bar mount. Worked great 1st time out a couple weeks ago. If you're interested to see what it looks like on ATV handlebars, I have a couple of videos posted in the Screening room link above (I'm 2nd to last poster).
