  • Action cams can handle a lot-or so they say. See which camera comes out on top when we put the GoPro Hero4 Silver, Sony HDRAS20/B, and Contour Roam3 up against one another.

    There is usually a setting within the camera, that if it is dropped, the camera will shut off. That's probably why the file was unplayable. It was corrupted in the shutoff process, very much like most old school video cameras.

    There is something wrong here. I have seen a gopro survive a skydive after escaping from the skydivers helmet, seen it fall from a drone and hit concrete and most of all getting thrown off a cliff yet it can't survive a smash

    not a fair test, where was the case for the contour????

    also it was luck the go pro was recording on the drop

    • @BenClementt

  • @thisaccountisded8081
    @thisaccountisded8081 9 років тому

    I did the same thong with all the GoPros (including the black,white and original) but they seem frozen. However, when I dropped them from chest height (shoulder height for me) they were rebooting and okay. Did you try dropping it again?

  • @Patrick-jt5ph
    @Patrick-jt5ph 9 років тому
