Go Pro HD Naked and Go Pro HD Motorsport - By: Steve Mc Karmik

Go Pro cameras are great tools for anyone who engages in extreme sports or motorsports and wants to replay their excitement or get another angle on the action. These allow you to fix cameras to your helmets, gear or vehicles in order to get a close up view of the action but are also incredibly light and durable so that they a) won't get smashed to pieces around the course and b) won't slow you down or hamper your performance. This then means that you can play back your videos to show friends and family, to assess your own performance or to share online, or can take large high-definition stills of yourself leaping between buildings, doing a 360 or hurtling through rough terrain at a hundred miles an hour in a car or on a bike, leaping over waves while being towed by a speedboat on just your feet, or grinding down a flight of stairs on a skateboard.

The question is though, which camera do you purchase? With Go Pro producing such a range of high quality, durable cameras for sports and activities, it can be hard to know which option to opt for.

Bear in mind that choosing 'between' mounted cameras however need not always be the case, and that sometimes you can greatly benefit from having two different cameras set on the action. This then gets you more angles on the action and allows for better editing and cutting when you get your footage back home (cutting between different angles works well while cutting to the same angle five seconds later can look a bit jerky and not half as graceful a transition). Two great Go Pro cameras are the Go Pro HD Naked and the Go Pro HD Motorsport. These two cameras can work well complimenting each other for different views of the action, but on their own are better suited to different activities. Here we'll look at the pros of each and how they can be used separately or together.

The Go Pro HD Naked is actually the world's top-performance wearable HD video camera at 1080p and 30-60fps. It also shoots five megapixel photos and allows for 2.5 hours of footage per charge and 9 hours of video on a 32GB SD card.

Meanwhile the Go Pro HD Motorsport has many of the same specs with 1080p HD and 30-60fps as well as photo option. It has the same battery life and storage capacity too making it the Go Pro HD Naked's equal in all respects.

The real difference between the two systems then is in their intended use. While the Go Pro HD Motorsport is designed for use with cars, bikes and quads; the Naked is more suited to those without a vehicle and can be attached to clothing, tools, helmets and spokes etc for more up close shots. The versatility of each device means that both can be used for both purposes and attached to most curved surfaced, however by using the two in combination you can get a more in-depth video of yourself in action – for example with one camera filming the track close to the ground as it rushes past while another films your eye-view of the road ahead; or with one fixed to the handlebars to capture your expression while another films the action.
