New Kid on the Block! The Drift Innovation HD 170 Cam
In today's world it's not out of place to see a camera taped, clipped, stickied to someone's head, Bike, Car, or Toyota 4WD! This is a new camera that has come out with some neat features which is sure to make GoPro HD owner's jealous.
Immediately the most obvious of this camera is it's LCD screen on the cam which provides the user with a good view of what's going on. This is the one weakness that GoPro HD owner's have is hoping they got the shot because there isn't a screen yet available. This little waterproof wonder is able to take full 1080p HD. The really incredible part is it's remote control to remotely take video.
There has been times where the GoPro HD has been under the Toyota and being able to take the shot requires, stopping, checking to make sure it's on video mode, press the go button, record, pull over, stop recording, and finally turn off the camera. Hello remote control!!
It is a bit larger than the GoPro HD
Mounting options are quite vast as there is a hole on the bottom for normal camera mounts. They also provide a few accessories for handlebars, goggles, your head, and helmet.
Here's a description of the HD 170 from their website:
The Drift HD 170 is the worlds first sports Action Camera which films in full HD and has a playback screen and remote control. This rugged waterproof camera is the first camera that gives people what they want from an Action Camera:
- Full HD for creating crystal clear footage
- A playback screen for lining up shots and the ability to play back the footage right away
- A remote control to enable you to film what you want to record, not the boring stuff in between
- Easy to use mounts so you can use it whenever you want and mount it anywhere your imagination allows you. The shape of the camera and the mounts it comes with make it the easiest camera out there to use
If that isn′t enough the camera also has the following :
- A rotating lens so you can mount the camera at any angle and any position to get that shot you are looking for
- It can take photos, put it in the photo burst mode and you can take pictures every few seconds for as long as your memory card lasts. If you don′t get a decent photo then you need to do something else or give the camera to someone else who can really use it
- You can pair the remote control to your camera, chances are your mates will have the same camera, no turning off their camera just before they hit the tree
- A zoom function so you can get even closer to the action or your friend in front
- An External microphone so no more listening to wind noise, great for in-car filming
- Night mode so you can record in darker and duskier conditions
