I don't have the specs in front of me but from what I recall it will do full 1080/60i HD as well as all SD modes. Not too bad for such a little camera. I used my GoPro for national news stories and it has looked great.

Here's one from when I got caught in 80+ mph straightline winds driving home for a holiday. Needless to say I was really glad no trees landed on my roof as I had nowhere to hide on the backroads of NW Wisconsin.

Out checking on the hired hand putting up hay, the pond and the road back to the house.

Yes I need to wash the truck and the windshield....and need to go get some catfish out of that pond.

You guys may have seen news footage of the recent bush fires in NSW
: this shot was taken on the north headland at Catherine Hill Bay, you can see the south headland is totally burnt out:



And here's The Big Prawn at Catherine Hill Bay: the petrol station is absolutely rooted thanks to the bush fires:

Bead locks would keep that from happening!

I guess I need to get some shots while driving around tomorrow. This is a fun thread. Thanks for posting it!

I have a Equus tach in it now but no speedo. Just never got around to it.



Toggles for front lights,interior lights, on board air, and ARB locker.
Aviation style front and rear winch controls.
Painless dual battery switch and green LED lights at top for blinkers
Stainless steel plate.

I need a better pic with gauges.

I love these hood shots guys. I also really dig seeing other parts of the nation (And world).

Keep them coming!

Here's one I shot a while ago along the Pacific Coast Highway. If you look carefully you can see the surfers in the water.
