The compact and rugged Contour+2 Hands-Free Full HD Action Camcorder from Contour keeps things simple for capturing high-quality action video while the world is rushing past you at high speed. With a lockable Instant On-Record switch, all you have to do to start recording is turn the camera on. Plus, its durable aluminum shell is impact-resistant and Contour even includes a waterproof housing with your purchase - so you'll be able to comfortably record down to a depth of 197' (60 m). The Contour+2 has an ultra-lightweight body and its array of available mounts make it the ideal choice for skiing, snowboarding, skateboarding, skydiving, motocross, kayaking, surfing, mountain biking and more.
The Contour+2 can capture 1080p, 720p and 480p video. It also supports 5-megapixel still image capture. For enhanced shot performance, the camera supports adjustable white balance, contrast, sharpness, exposure and metering. Plus, you can download Contour's available app and turn your smartphone or other mobile device into a remote control for the camera. The app also lets you use your mobile device to preview your shots.
Contour designed the camera with a wide-angle, 170° lens that actually rotates 270° in the body so that you can mount the camera at any angle, using either the standard tripod thread or the integrated TRail mount system that works with all of Contour's optional accessory mounts. There's also a high-precision laser level built right into the camera, which allows you to adjust the orientation of the lens and level out the horizon before you start recording.
The Contour+2 features built-in Bluetooth as well, which you can use to control your camera via a Bluetooth-enabled mobile device. It is also equipped with a GPS receiver, which captures speed, location, elevation and distance. This lets you infuse a geographical narrative into your movies and photos. Other features include an external microphone jack, mini-USB port and 120 frames per second high-speed video capture for super slow motion.
