Wow....... very cool video! Makes me want one!

 

[Rasmus]

External mic input! YES!

 

[Wicked Pissah]

i wonder if the camera itself will pick up audio better than the first

 

[Fallenauthority]

Gah! I so want one of these.

 

[FalconGTHO]

Cool. STILL no freakin on board stereo sound. Grr. Wtf?

Whos the hottie surfer chick at 1:12? Like the music in the vid too anyone know who does it?

 

[Lupo222]

i wonder if the camera itself will pick up audio better than the first

I was thinking the same thing. Had the first one in Afghanistan on my kevlar and all I can say is I wasn't impressed. The only sound I ever heard was a 40lb IED going off 100m away...

Like the music in the vid too anyone know who does it?

[FalconGTHO]
