Re: GoPro Hero 2 is here!

When you consider that GoPro company is Australian it b----y well ought to be PAL capable!

Ron

PS could make similar comments about lots of the stuff that comes out of China badged as Panasonic w.h.y. with only NTSC capability despite China being the biggest PAL country in the World (or is that India?)

Re: GoPro Hero 2 is here!


How was the slow motion done when in 1080? Was it twixtor? I use twixtor but for stuff that's shot in 60frames+ . Either way, it looks great and has moved up to the top of my xmas list.

Re: GoPro Hero 2 is here!

What ever the slo mo is, it's in post. The footage looks great, but mostly because of content shot to make it look great and heavy post production. I always take these with a grain of salt... Not interested until I see footage on youtube from regular shooters.

Are you sure 24P is in the cards? I've installed the first update, that supports the 3D kit. No 24P in that update.
