New -> Contour GPS

http://techland.com/2010/09/13/hands-on-with-the-contour-gps/



Product Overview

The ContourGPS combines HD point of view video with GPS geo-tagging software to deliver a video which overlays the exact location, height and speed of where the video was shot onto your videos and photos!

Contour has maintained all of its previously successful features as the Contour GPS is slim, lightweight and has a shock proof body. With various mounting options, dual lasers for alignment and a recording angle of a 135°, the ContourGPS is truly impressive.

The GPS, its most talked about feature allows the user to record location, altitude and speeds during filming. Clever software allows you to quickly watch your movements on an interactive map and media player.

However I have had shite service from them, prefer www.dogcamsport.co.uk, though they have not got it listed yet. Shame that it will be the next version after this one that has a remote.

That will be brilliant for relaying a long journey down to a few minutes.

you can do this with some compact Canon cameras, can't remember the sites name but basically you need to rewrite the cameras operating system, to add this functionality

I think Kirky did it with his Canon a while back he's not been on the site for awhile but a search of his post would probably find it

found it

Just found the relevant bit of my Pentax W60 Waterproof Camera's manual and it can be set for Interval shooting. You can adjust the Interval, Total Number of shots and the Start delay. Must have a go at it soon. Would be handy if Contour could update the older Contour's cameras to allow interval shooting.
