    Default Comparison: Contour+ vs Go Pro HD

    http://www.engadget.com/2012/04/09/c...t-and-into-th/

    Engadget has a kinda lame comparison of two HD Point-Of-View cameras, the Contour+ and the Go Pro HD Hero 2. Conclusion: The Go Pro is a better value and provided more accurate color balance in stock configuration, the Contour a better choice for helmet-mounting because it's more streamlined. The Contour had additional features, including GPS tagging and remote control via a Bluetooth-equipped smart phone. Both cameras performed well in a variety of "extreme" circumstances.

    every contour video I've seen have looked consistently worse go Pro.. less sharp, more jello vision, and unrealistic color. Didn't know you can tweak the color setting of the camera.. but then again, I've never seen one good, so perhaps even tweaked, it's a few notches down from the go pro in image quality.
