Sample Video:
This is a sample taken in my car with the Lo audio setting. The wide lens adds a bit of barrel distortion but allows you a much greater viewing angle than a standard lens.
Here are some additional video’s taken with the HERO Wide:

Conclusion:
With an approximate retail price of $199 and $169 at Motorcycle ToyStore the MotorSports HERO Wide falls into the sub $200 category and represents an amazing value for those with an interest in sharing their experience with others in first person style. The HERO offers excellent video quality and while the audio could use improvement the HERO is not really intended for that role. As you can see by the demo video’s many users supplement the video with their own music tracks which definitely gives their experience a whole new level of excitement.
The possibilities are endless with the HERO Wide and for less than $200 anyone with a desire to record their experience in the great outdoors would do well in purchasing one of the GoPro HERO line.
Upping the ante to $259 to $299 you can purchase the HD HERO and take your experience to 1080p which I really believe is worth the money. For less than $200 the HERO Wide is the best action camera for outdoor sports we have seen and truly the best value for your money.
