Baseline Test of GoPro HD Hero 2's Built-in Microphone

I forgot that I should have started this microphone test session of a baseline recording of how the GoPro HD Hero 2's built-in microphone sounds. Here I'm holding it about an arm's length away from me. You'll notice the tremendous amount of background hum. The furnace of is about 5 feet away to the left and the Hero2 picked up the sound very clearly. Not a surprise since the Hero2's mic is located on top of the camera and is an omnidirectional microphone!


Here, I do a recording of a stock Hero2 using it's internal microphone with the GoPro sitting on top of the iMac you see in the thumbnail above. I describe how well the HTDZ microphone is made!


More later,
Ambrose
