    Question GoPro killer from Sony?

    Interesting new camera from Sony. Zeiss lens, SteadyShot image stabilization.

    I'm just getting into video. As I understand it GoPro has the best image quality for these type of POV cameras... I wonder how this Sony will stack up....

    It looks and sounds like a cool camera, but the promo videos on the Sony site suck! Needs deinterlaced or something. Not very impressive and looks just like a GoPro. I have a feeling it might be better quality, but I'll need to see a better clip.

    It is still a TeleTubby accessory, and that shit has GOT to go.
    End of story.

    Jesus Christ. Why the shit do you keep commenting on shit you know nothing about? "Needs deinterlaced"? Holy fuck, you continue to prove how little you know about video and just go on and on blathering like a retarded chimpanzee.

    #1 - it doesn't shoot interlaced video.
    #2 - it would be deinterlacING anyway.
    #3 - video that needs to be deinterlaced looks NOTHING like that footage.

    Yes, that's how I know you are wrong. Well, that and the fact it DOESN'T SHOOT INTERLACED VIDEO you fucking mook. What do you think i and p at the end of the frame rate mean? And explain how they work and why they are the way they are.

    I think it's pretty fucking slick, and being able to go down to 190ft without a special housing is rad.

    I also like the form factor much more than the goPro.

    Truth. Compared to GoPros promo videos, this one looks like shit. I think they need to interlace it.
