Well, after less then a year, and only a few uses, my Go-Pro decided to take a dump on Friday. I have no way of getting it warrantied before LSPR.

Is there anyone that has one who would be willing to let me borrow it?

I would even take a controur. I just need something to shoot in car with.

Torry, I am looking at you.

how did you do that, I have mine fall off my car at a good rate of speed and then get submerged in a fish tank(with the non-water proof case on) and it still works just fine. Oh well I hope you find one.

Thats what I dont get. I have been extremely careful with this thing. I have seen them stand up to some rediculous abuse, and mine is perfect. There is not a single scratch on the case or the body. It has never seen intense heat/cold or moisture, and I haven't even used it that much.

Now it boots up, will cycle through the settings, but as soon as I push capture it freezes. Have tried multiple sd cards, different formats, and tonight im going to re-load the firmware.

Fixed it.

Tried everything tech support recommended twice to no avail. Then I tried reloading the firmware because I figured, hey, it couldn't hurt. It fixed all the issues. I have a lead on a back up camera, should this one s*** the bed again, but im hoping it wont.

I did at Rally MN. For LSPR I will actually be shooting from 2 angles, and I plan to do picture in picture. Main view facing forward, with the in picture showing driver/co-driver from the lower passenger corner of the windshield.
