Hey everyone !

This video was’nt to snow my ski skills, because there is not so many… this is more about to show the ability of the new GoPro HD Camera.

There is my review.

- The the new GoPro HD is better in the low light from the previous model. But i strongly recommand to shoot at 30p at low light instead of 60p.

- The codec use by the gopro is really hard to work with. I edit this short clip in Vegas Pro 9.0c on a i7 + 12gig ram machine and it stroggle just to show me a preview !

- The 170 degres angle that you get on the HD model is different from the SD model. On the SD you got an 4:3 ratio and on the HD, an 16:9 ratio. That mean you got less room on the top and bottom. I just realize how bad my shots where crop back home.

- I used the chest mount for this clip and i strongly recommand this item to anyone !

- The new HD is slightly bigger than the previous model, so you cant use some of the old accessoirs.

- The rechargeble battery is a blessing !

And there is a lot more….

Have fun !
