Default Contour+ HD Video Camera with GPS and more!

Record, post, play – that’s Contour’s motto for their line of compact HD video cameras. At the top of their food chain, lies the Contour+, an all-in-one compact camera kit that delivers true 1080p HD video that can be viewed with a GPS map overlay using the free Contour Story Teller video editing software. This GPS function reads the camera’s position four times every second and includes altitude and speed – all of which can be included in your video. Best of all, it’s easy to share your work on Contour’s website, YouTube or wherever you want, for that matter. For the true video connoisseur, Contour makes it easy to adjust microphone gain, video sharpness or exposure and also select HD output aspect ratios and resolution with just a few clicks of a mouse giving you the ability to adjust the “feel” of your videos to your exacting standards.

This compact HD motorsports camera can be mounted just about anywhere using sticky-back mounts (three are included in this package) so you can record the action easily from your preferred viewing angle. Using your iPhone or Android smartphone, a built-in Bluetooth communicator allows easy setup as you’re able to see what your camera is looking at before you start filming. And, there are no proprietary output jacks anywhere on the Contour+ camera, just connect to any HDMI compatible viewing device and review your work right away or watch it in real time. For those so equipped, you can even stream live video action wirelessly to a remote point using the HDMI output! For production-minded users who like to do their own video editing and want high-quality sound to go with it, a 2.5mm microphone jack is built-in to the Contour+ chassis. This is especially handy, for example, if you want to mount the camera on the outside of your vehicle but want to put the mic inside the car or inside your helmet.

A water-resistant shell surrounds the video recording equipment which is designed to withstand rain and dirt, but for those looking for extreme use – a waterproof case is also available along with a myriad of other accessories like hard mounts, strap-mounts, rotating mounts, extra batteries and even a picatinny rail adaptor for the shootists out there. From diving, to street riding to skydiving – there are no limits to what you can do with a Contour+ camera system and everything you need to get started is included with every Contour+ HD camera kit.

Contour understands that it’s not always possible to mount your camera on a surface that’s going to be perfectly parallel to the ground. To get around this, the camera itself can be rotated within its housing for a perfectly flat view on tape.


Here, you can see the slot for the included battery (secured behind red tab), USB, memory card and HDMI video output.


Another nice feature of the Contour video camera is the large slider button that’s on top of the chassis. Even if you can’t see the camera (eg., mounted on your helmet) this makes it very easy to know if your camera has been activated, even when wearing a gloved hand so you won’t miss recording any of the action.


For advanced videographers or those that don’t want to wait to show off their video, simply plug in the included HDMI cable to see your video on the big screen. Even better, with the right accessories (like an iPhone via Bluetooth connectivity or Teradek Cube) you can see your video in real time while it’s being recorded.


A brushed aluminum chassis houses all the durable camera equipment. This is all held to whatever object you choose via a hard plastic Trail system for a solid mount that won’t shake loose.


Contour+ HD Video Cameras are perfect for novice videographers all the way to professional users who need a compact, high quality video camera to record even the most intense action, anywhere, anytime.

Default Contour Camera Accessories: mounts, batteries and chargers

All Contour HD video cameras come with a small array of mounts and accessories, but for the truly avid videographer, that can’t possibly be enough for capturing all the angles! That’s why Contour has a wide range of accessories available: from travel chargers and spare batteries to roll cage mounts and sticky-back mounts that you can rotate for the perfect view. They thought of just about everything! And for those of you that were wondering how the Contour+ compared to the GoPro, check out Gizmodo’s comparison write-up.

Going somewhere far away? Worried about battery life? Then this little kit is all you’ll need to keep your Contour at the ready. Simply swap plugs as needed – no special tools required.


Getting into something that’s roll cage equipped or perhaps you want to attach the camera to the skid of your helicopter? This little kit is the ticket, plus, you’ll be able to point the camera where you need.


Got a flat surface but aren’t sure what angle will look best? Not a problem with this sticky-backed rotating mount. Index as needed then lock the camera into position.


The XL Handlebar mount is perfect for … well, bigger handlebars or any round tube with a diameter between 15mm – 33mm.


Dirtbikers, snowmobiles, mountainbikers and skiers will appreciate this nifty goggle strap mount. Simple to install, you’ll be able to get a nice point of view with this attached to the side of your head.


Once you get your camera mounted up, it’s important to know exactly where it’s pointed and Contour makes that easy with the ConnectView application for Androids and iPhones. The Contour+ shown here includes Bluetooth connectivity for pairing the devices plus, you can make exposure, lighting, microphone and other adjustments with the app too! Getting the right shot is no problem with this great feature!
