Super Slow Motion Side by Side: Sony HDR-AS15 vs GoPro Hero 2 vs Contour+2
2012
We sync up the new Sony HDR-AS15 along with the Contour+2, GoPro Hero 2, and shot paint balls at my face… also checking out the beach scene around Southern California.
All Cameras are recording in 120fps.
The Sony HDR-AS15 which films at 720 120fps at what appears to be a lower bit rate or write speed but still impressive at it’s possible 199.99 price range.
The GoPro Hero 2 and the Contour+2 are filming at 120fps at 480p. The Gopro Hero 2 still continues to astonish me while the Contour+2 is a little disappointing.
None of this footage other then the Canon 5D footage has been Color Corrected. What you see are the default settings for each camera. As a policey to letting you decide which is best for you, I don’t mess with settings in side by side videos.
Firmware versions of each camera:
Sony HDR-AS15 Action Camera (Not sure)
Contour+2 (v2.0)
GoPro Hero 2 (Pre Pro tunes)
