When rockclimbing or doing anything outdoorsmanish, you can’t help but say, “Gee…I wish I could take a picture of this now. Unfortunately I got my hands full; if I let go of this rope to take a picture or video, I’ll fall down to my death.” It’s a good thing then that GoPro produced a hands-free camera called the Digital Hero which you can bring while mountain climbing, rowing, etc. The good thing about it was that it was light and can be attached either to your arm or helmet.
We found a review on the said gadget; and it’s not all that good:
…the Hero, when mounted on a helmet, is very difficult to aim. This may be a problem all helmet cams share, but at least with larger traditional units you get a view screen to check your composition before shooting and to double check afterward. With the Helmet Hero, however, you can’t tell if you got the shot you wanted until you get it back to a computer and upload the files, and by then it’s too late.
According to the article, the company is planning a Mark 2 of this gadget and hopefully, they’ll learn from past mistakes.
