GoPro Camera: sharper-pictured, easier-to-use HD HERO2 actioncam

If you've been holding off on getting a GoPro HD HERO actioncam, you were right to wait.

Today, the California-based company announced the release of its HD HERO2 camera, which is claimed to be "2X as Powerful in Every Way."

More specifically, it has an 11-megapixel image sensor (as opposed to the regular camera's 5 mp), along with a new processor that is said to be twice as fast, and a redesigned lens that GoPro claims is both twice as sharp and capable of a complete 170-degree field of view even in widescreen 1080p mode.

There's also good news for consumers who think the existing HD HERO is all the camera they need.

The HD HERO2 is the most advanced GoPro camera, yet. To celebrate its release, GoPro traveled the world with some of their favorite athletes, adventurers, and filmmakers to see what they could capture and create with the HD HERO2.

GoPro hope this film inspires you to get out and do the same.
