The worlds first HD 1080p camera that tracks your GPS, elevation and speed now with Bluetooth capabilities!!

This new Bluetooth feature is already installed in each ContourGPS camera and can be unlocked with a firmware upgrade. This enables the Contour to connect wirelessly to your Android or iOS device and video directly to your smartphone. Features will include a live preview screen, battery life status, GPS signal, memory indicators, and most importantly - finally a way to customize all of the camera settings on the fly!

The ContourGPS Action Video Camera is another first from Contour, incorporating state of the art GPS technology and High Definition recording within a slim, lightweight silhouette. Perfect for all kinds of action sports thanks to its versatile mounting options and dual laser alignment, the grabs only the best shots no matter what angle your filming at. Equipped with a 135° wide angle lens, the provides viewers with the entire scene without creating a fisheye effect like some other cameras.

Lets talk about GPS, because the inclusion of this slick feature adds a whole new layer to the world of POV video as it allows you to capture your location, altitude and speed multiple times per second, so your bragging rights are secured… and if your friends still don't believe you, you've got the proof. The GPS has also provided the ability to watch your recordings via the interactive map and video player where you can see and control the action.

Recording in a range of HD settings, the ContourGPS enables you to record in true 1080p at 30fps for the highest quality footage available, but if you are filming sports like surfing, that may require a slightly higher picture, you are all set to go, as the ContourGPS also has a 960p setting, recording at 30fps. For high action scenarios where frame rate might outweigh resolution, switch to 720p mode, capturing footage at 60fps for crisp, clear action footage with minimal blur. The ContourHD mode is perfect for those where you're running low on storage space… capturing footage in 720p at 30fps, you still get HD quality, but files size is greatly reduced. In addition to HD video, the ContourGPS also snaps quality stills at intervals of 1, 2, 5, 10, 30 or 60 seconds. So tell your story with photos and mix up your montages with a series of stills.

With expertly designed audio that records via a omnidirectional microphone, the ContourGPS from Contour lets you capture the noise you want while excess wind noise is reduced. Now you can enhance your video quality with professional sound, instead of drowning it out with distorted audio. Equipped with an internal SD memory card with a maximum capacity of 32GB, the lets you films 8+ hours of quality footage without having to swap out cards… so you can focus on your videos, rather than on how much memory you have left!
