However I can easily attach the LI-Ego Camera to the Stock GoPro Camera Arm Mount. This then allows me to use any and all GoPro Mount options.
I would have thought LI would have used an arm mount that would be universal to the GoPro base mount leveraging off the huge market of mounts, mount plates and mount arms GoPro already have available.
Why re-invent the wheel eh? :huh:
So I now have two curved base mounts and one flat base mount and boat load of mount arms to make use of…. What to do…………… 👿
Sounds like a trademark dodge. No doubt GoPro have protected their gear and this is a very clever way around it.

My understanding gained from what I have seen and read Nick that’s the one. Oh and you have 6 updates :laugh:
Can it be used with your goggles?

September 17, 2012 at 8:20 pm #229597No they have no wi-fi on them , not sure about the newer models ??
Just seen this harness mount on their site and it looks like it’s in the up coming waterproof case

September 18, 2012 at 2:10 am #229600Here’s a EGO vs GoPro vid on YouTube , I’d like to see it done once the EGO is in it’s weatherproof box to get an idea of how the audio is effected .

September 18, 2012 at 2:30 am #229609Interesting, the EGO looks noticably brighter and represents colours better. As you say it will be interesting to see how it goes with the waterproof casing fitted.
I don’t plan on using the waterproof casing anyway so it seems like it was money well spend for me…..happy days!

Yes Nick this is the right one as per TB post, i have it on both my i phone 4s and Android Tab and it works well for both.

September 18, 2012 at 3:10 am #229612The ego quality looks much clearer. I would have thought the gopro would have been better with the price difference. I wonder if its the case but either way no case no camera with the gopro. Is the lense cover replaceable on the ego?
September 18, 2012 at 3:13 am #229611Thanks Nick for posting that. Not being picky cause I really don’t care I love my gopro cause it fills all the boxes for me, but I understand those boxes are different for others I know that. I have gopros for me and an EGO for Lochie and its interesting to watch, but is it comparing apples and apples? Is the EGO capable of 1080? If so both at their best in 1080 would be the test wouldn’t it? Shouldn’t the test be both out of their covers, then both in? I only ask because this morning someone quoted dust standard numbers to me saying the EGO is the same as the gopro out of its cover.

September 18, 2012 at 3:20 am #229613It is probably a fair comparison TB as they are both in their “working” setup as in GP is in its case and mount and the EGO is on its mount. Although i see what ur saying by the 1080 comparison. So are the lenses covers replaceable on the ego?

If you look carefully that is not the new GoPro Hero2. The comparison was done with the old model before they went to the glass optics.
Very sneaky marketing!September 18, 2012 at 3:24 am #229617Ahhhh clever spotting there stm!!! Now find one with the hero 2 vs ego nickj your upsetting the gopro users haha.

Very sneaky marketing!Does the glass lense make that much difference at 720 when its still shooting through a plastic outer case Scott? Really :blink: Maybe direct onto a LCD TV :blink: but broken down to 720 on youtube
This is a great learning thread

Hey Nick where did find this on the LI website? I couldn’t find it or even the EGO on there site it’s not updated yet? can you post a link for that mount?

September 18, 2012 at 3:53 am #229620Looking at the comparison on youtube it seems to make a difference. Stm should have a great idea as he has owned both!!
