That looks like a very nice road too. I've been up the Wanganui River Rd not too far away.

Both are good but more gravel on Rangitatau East and Kauarapaoa Roads and a lot less busy! Great scenery on either ride.

Yes, very excited.
I have been lucky enough to steal my girlfriends Hero2 a few times, but I might be feeling the need to have my own gopro.
720p at 120fps gives me wood, just wish they had an android version of the control software (I hope/bet they will have soon, don't dare me to buy an iphone).

[dino3310]

Chris I dare you to buy an Iphone

[george formby]

Hero 3? 120 FPS? OH!:clap:

Glad I did not rush out for a Hero 2

[NordieBoy]

The baby of the range, the White Edition is only $200US.
They look to use the newer underwater type housing too.

[george formby]

Those specs are, like James Bond..... Q's version of a go pro.

looks like I'll be putting the breaks on a hero 2! Anyone have any info on the hero 3 i.e. how much, when available and where we get our mits on one?

[NordieBoy]

looks like I'll be putting the breaks on a hero 2! Anyone have any info on the hero 3 i.e. how much, when available and where we get our mits on one?

www.gopro.com has the info.

The White Series is similar to the Hero2 specs 5mp/60fps plus built in wifi (no remote) at $199us.
The Silver ramps it up a bit for $299.
The Black has the remote and the 120fps/11mp stuff for $399us.

All have the new case and wifi built in.

[NordieBoy]

Not sure about the White Edition, but the Silver and Black both have looping video!

Finally!!!

[Eddieb]

Not sure about the White Edition, but the Silver and Black both have looping video!

Finally!!!

I hope you can turn that off.

The Black edition does 1440P at 48FPS!

[NordieBoy]

I hope you can turn that off.

It's only looping if you choose it from the menu. Hit the record button on the remote and it saves the last xx minutes as a separate clip.

You'll be left with a pile of 5min (or whatever) clips to go through instead of 4-5hrs of footage...



Loop recording is like cookies and cream icecream on a hot day that doesn't melt! Perfection :first:

[cynna]

anyone know if u can get replacement lens for the gopro? the ones i brought are for the housing but i have actaully scratched the lens on the camera .....

Yes, but I was slightly less excited when I just went to buy one and they are not available until the "estimated" release date of the 14th of November. Then I also read:

I emailed GoPro to see what date they will get the NZ certification sorted and be able to ship to NZ, their reply:


Thank you for contacting GoPro Customer Support.

After reviewing my research we are in fact able to ship to New Zealand so by the estimated ship date of November 14th we would be able to ship.

Please let us know if you have any further questions.

Many Thanks,

I know how you feel, but maybe waiting is not so bad. From what I have read the hero3 is pretty buggy and only some of the functionality is 100% complete, on the bright side they have released the gopro android app now (but that does not support the hero3 yet). So even if I get one, I still have to wait for the functionality I really want.
Looks like I shall just be sticking with stealing my partners hero2 for a bit longer.

I've been looking at no name smart phones & tablets and I'll be buggered if I can see any difference between them & Samsungs offerings apart from the firm ware. A third of the price too.

Adventure Guide will have videos added to the routes to make them more interesting and informative, especially for some of the more technical tracks. This is video test number 1 of a local track.

It’s much much steeper and slipperier than it looks folks!!

Rode each section just the once, shuffled the camera up as I progressed. Lots of fun alright, Smiley Creek Track is a good name as you basically smile all the way up!

Nowadays? What might you be trying to imply there NordieBoy? :innocent:

[Padmei]

I counted three dabs:niceone:

Great bit of videoing there Josh. Short & sweet. A short bit of helmet cam would have been cool mixed in there as well. Also some interesting commentary - not asking for much am I? :pinch:

What was it shot with & did you have a mini tripod.

Iyt would be good if there was someway of showing how steep terrain is on a video, I remember looking at a ride I did with Nordie on a slope where if you stopped there's no way you could start again yet it looked flat as a pancake - the revs was the giveaway.

Well done

I've done plenty of editing and DVD mastering work for clients but this is my first attempt at actual filming. This was more of a test than anything and proved to be an interesting exercise, I learned quite a bit from this session. Once the Hero3 Black arrives I'll be using helmet cam and static cam footage to mix it up a little more. No doubt it'll take a while to perfect the skills to together top notch vids, but I have a particular editing style in mind plus a video project I am working on next year which should be pretty cool... that's all secret squirrel for now :shutup:


What was it shot with & did you have a mini tripod.

Full size collapsible tripod, this vid simply would not have been able to be filmed without a tripod or a mini tripod, too much tall grass, ferns, branches etc

Totally agree, it amazes me how a camera can make the steepest of gnarly slopes look as intimidating as heading down your driveway. That track had some pretty steep slippery sections yet it looks like a dawdle on the vid. My initial thought is to have a hot chick in a bikini holding a builders level in all the shots :)

Its the perfect formular for exploring Hawkes bays many river systems, especially over summer when the water levels are low....a back pack with some snacks and some spare gas and disapear for a day...magic!

That movie may be the reason I have to make use of the sales to get a new TV - the laptop is a bit small for such an epic tale. Anyone had any probs viewing youtube clips & similar on the new TVs before I go & plonk my hard earned on one? Anything to watch out for?

1 that was fantastic! ive heard a few people say they were fond of the nivas, and was the turist the same?
just recennty i saw an old pic on facebook page 'old napier' community, it showed what was at last 1000 ladas
on the port of napier back in 1989, the russians had sent them in payment for milk powder
security waslax in those days, so if we needed a car battery we'd go in and liberate a 'trepka' branded
one from the ladas!

Yeop we had heaps of them down in Nelson as the Lada dealer was next to the port. The Russian fishermen allegedly used to actually buy them over here, put them on the deck & take them back to Russia as they were very sort after at the time.
The turist was prob the betterer model with the single hand operated window winders:pinch:

Definitely in the top three of my crazy adventure top ten. The "because I could" in answer to "why?" just does not cut it.

Thanks Matt, it sure is a great run through there. I talked with the owner of the section near the Iron Bridge again last week, he is putting together a traffic management plan to work in with the mining but he is factoring in access for adventure riders, a bloody good bloke!

Sure was, that recent storm pushed a ton of large rocks down that creek (Blue Duck Creek) and completely stripped out that section of the 4X4 track. There was a surprising amount of water still coming down that creek considering how much the Mackley had receded, there must have been some heavy isolated falls up the Blue Duck Creek catchment

Also the hills looked steep on the video (unusual) was that because of the fisheye lense?

The fish eye was flattening them out. Was quite surprised I got up as many as I did. One I stopped on, the bike slid back down. Sideways.


The bike feels a bit "big endy" at low revs although I've been informed they don't do big ends so that can't be the problem :oi-grr:

Took me a while before I realised that was him riding - Nordie that is you in 10 years time:niceone:

[NordieBoy]

Nordie that is you in 10 years time:niceone:
I'd have to lose 2' in height first...
Bikes getting smaller, beards getting bigger.

He's a little guy so the Sikk pit bike with the Loncin 140cc donk works well for him.
Trials rear tyre too.
He's been laying out the tracks for the racing there for 30 years.

[Padmei]

He's been laying out the tracks for the racing there for 30 years.

Yep he's the same type you see all over the world in different clubs working hard behind the scenes to keep events going.

[NordieBoy]

Yep he's the same type you see all over the world in different clubs working hard behind the scenes to keep events going.

He lives in an old van in the trees behind the track too :D
Apparently he's as happy as a pig in shit...
