Anyone know the difference between the following?

1. Gopro Motorsports Hero Wide
2. GoPro Helmet Hero Wide


Is it just different mounts or is there physical difference too? .. like perhaps the mic or quality, image stabilisation enhancements?

Erm, a quick google search shows the Motorsport is for use in Motorsport activities and Helmet Pro is for non-motorsport, kayaking, BMX'ing etc.

The mounts you get.

The wide is the 5mp picture one with wide angle lens. There is another go pro camera which isn't wide angle lens and is 3mp picture... but both you listed is the good quality. Just with different mounts.

Suction cup is awesome. Really can't believe how strong it is!

Didn't you say you were near Reading or something? I'm not too far and you could have a tinker with my set Thumbs Up

It actually states you can attach the Hemet pro to a 'vehicle' Wink

I can see there are differences in mounting kit, but I am trying to establish if there is any technical differences between he cameras themselves for the 2 different applicaitons ...

Or am I merely selecting them for their mounting kit? :p

I am near Portsmouth.

If we are assuming the camera is the same, I am still undecided which mounting kit will be of more use to me ... especially as I want to use it for NON-bike type applications, so thinking some of the body strap type things would be quite useful ...
