The GoPro HD HERO 960 Wearable HD Camera is, like all GoPro cameras, one tough cookie. Aside from 1280 x 960p high def video capture, the camcorder lets you shoot as deep as 180′ under the surface, and it also comes equipped with multiple mounts for recording from just about any angle. With the 960 you’ll get the quick-release housing, a curved mount, flat mount, helmet front mount, headlamp-style head strap, and a quick-release buckle. In addition, a number of other accessories and mounting options are available from the company as well. More than a video camera, the 960 also takes 5Mp still images. You can capture a single shot, or shoot at intervals from 2 to 60 seconds, for up to 2.5 hours. The camera function also allows for pictures taken with the self-timer and for ‘triple shots’. Other highlights of the 960 include 2.5 hours of battery power on a full charge and 9 hours of storage to a standard 32GB SD card.

I have shot a Canon 5D MII and think this video is better as far as sharpness. The videos you see loaded up…
Near Perfect I see no reason to splurge and get the 1080 version of this camera. The 960 takes amazing fisheye style footage. The camera is much smaller than I was expecting, which is a good thing since I’ll be wearing it on my head. The head strap works really well but the mounts given will no allow for great footage looking back at your face. However, the headstrap and mount are perfect for POV recording. The only reason I do not say this item is absolutely perfect and just near perfect is that it does…
Great Camera, Awesome results 0
