A little Help Here Looks like the Go Pro has got some competition from a new similar sized camera. The advantage in my belief would be hands down for the new Drift HD 170 due to the ability to be able to zoom in 5x and use a wrist band remote while the camera is on your head to move it 170 degree's and up and down all at the touch of a finger while holding your bow. I'll post the link and you can look for your selves. Let me know if anyone has looked into this new camera and give me some feed back on it if you could. Thanks a ton . My belief is it beats the Contour and Go Pro hands down ,it also can take individual pictures on the fly. All for an extra 20 bucks more than the Go Pro. Description The Drift HD170 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 * 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 Features: Description: The Drift HD170 is the worlds first sports action camera which films in full HD and has a playback screen and remote control.

I've honestly never heard of this camera until just now. I'm going to do some research of my own and if I find anything good I'll let you know.
I talked to the guys at Campbell Cameras and they're working on getting set up as a dealer so they can start testing and selling these units. From what I've heard they definitely rival the GoPro in quality and may just have it beat in the amount of options available to the user.
Justin My buddy has the non HD camera and it's video is awesome. Anyways from what I wrote on it and looked up it does rival the Go Pro. I like the thought of being able to zoom in and control the shot from the remote on your wrist band. Let me know what you find out from Cambell's Justin. Rocky
We are running one...for second angle. Check out our turkey hunt in the pro staff forum...the second angle from this video was shot with the Drift HD 170. It's great!!!
