The Drift HD Action Camera

  • You can pair the remote control to your camera, chances are your mates will have the same camera, no turning off their camera just before they hit the tree
  • A zoom function so you can get even closer to the action or your friend in front

    Please send me a price list – I am especially interested in the GoPro with underwater casing used for surfing (with surfboard mount) but would like line costs.

    Thanks,

    Debi

    • Hi Debi, line costs have been emailed through to you. All our GoPro cameras are sold with a 60 meter underwater casing. Best choice would be the GoPro Surf HERO HD camera bundle.

      Thanks

    • Hi Gary

  • Steven Britz

    hey there

    I am interested in the GoPro but would like to know is there a major difference in the GoPro HD Naked and the GoPro HD Surf, specs wise? I am asking this because 1.) I would like to use it for surfing, but for bodyboarding and is it possible to attach it to a bodyboard? 2.) I will also be using it for scuba diving. So which would be better to buy or could one them do both of these activities? Could you send me a price list of these two cameras, and is the external LCD screen already available?

    Thanks
    Steven Britz

  • Leigh

    HI

    What camera would be best for use while horse riding? I would also want to do some underwater filming as well?

    Thanks
    Leigh

    • Hi Leigh

      All cameras come with a 60 meter underwater casing perfect for underwater filming. There some other accessories that we can recommend which will give your lens a clearer picture.
      For horse riding it all depends what you want to capture. We have head straps, chest straps, wrist straps, etc which all would give a different angle and view.
      You are welcome to email us any other questions you may have for more info.
      hello@adventurecameras.co.za

  • Mohamed Asvat

    Hello. Really keen on the GoPro Camera. Going to use it mainly for Mountain Biking.
    My Issues are: Want to buy it including mounts and SD cards. Don’t want to buy 1/2 packages.
    What is the benefit of the LCD Bacpac and will it be compatible to the Camera you recomend.
    Please mail full quote.

    Thanks Mohamed

  • Shaheen

    Whats the difference between the normal std Go Pro and Surf Hero? Are all Go pors water proof?
    Im going to Indonesia soon and will be snorkelling and surfing so want to know whats best?

    • Hi Shaheen,

      The Surf Hero is an HD camera. In fact all our GoPro cameras sold are the HD versions. They all come with the 60 meter underwater casing!
      The best would be the SUrf Hero and then some accessories like the wrist strap for snorkeling, battery bacpac for more battery life, LCD screen so you can see what you are taking a picture of, etc.

      Let us know if you would like to receive an order form and brochure, by emailing us on hello@adventurecameras.co.za
      You can expect delivery within a couple days of your payment if needed.

  • Megan

    Hi,

    What is the difference between the GoPro HD Hero and the GoPro HD True. I saw the latter product at a Due South store and they were unable to explain the differences. Do you only stock the Hero or do you stock a GoPro with better specs? Am I correct in my understanding that each package has the same GoPro camera and it is only the accessories that differ? Could you please send me a full price list including the card options.

    Many thanks,
    Megan

    • Hi Megan

      I also cant tell you about the ‘True’. Never heard of it! We stock all the GoPro HD HERO’s. These are the top of the range GoPro’s available out there …
      Yes, you are correct in saying that each GoPro package is the same and its only the mounts that change. This is with the HERO range.
      We also stock the GoPro 960 which is not the full 1080 like the HERO’s. It also doesnt have the back section where you can attach the ‘LCD Srceen’ or the ‘Battery Bacpac’.
      I will drop you an email now with all the camera and accessory prices.

      Thanks
      Rich

  • Tom

    What kind would I use if I want to use it for everything? I would like to use the go pro for water sports as well as land sports like surfing and biking. Thank you

    • Hey Tom

      Id say you get the GoPro Helmet HERO, a surf replacement, wrist mount, anti fog, grab bag full of mounts and a range of others dependant on what sports you are doing.
      Would you like me to email you our order form where you can see all the products we offer?

      Thanks
      Rich

  • Tanya

    Hey Rich

    I am after a flat lens and red filter for my GoPro Surf Hero. Rumour has it that you guys are working on a flat lens for us scuba divers. I have seen lots of lenses availabe on various internet sites and the difference in clarity and colour underwater with the flat lens is amazing. Where will I get such a thing in S.A.?

    • Hi Tanya

      All I can say, is “watch this space”… :)
      For now, we can help you out with a flat lens in SA. Do you stay in Cape Town?
      I’ll email you some details now.

      Thanks

    I used the Drift Camera in America with a mate of mine….Prefer it to GoPro, felt it was way better. Do you stock them?

    Thanks
    Kelvin

    • Hi Kelvin

      Funny you mention that. We are actually setting up stocking the Drift Stealth and Drift HD today.
      I’ll drop you a mail now with some more details…
      Thanks

  • curt

    Hi there – would you mind emailing me a pricelist for the go pro cameras you stock plus the accesories – usage would be fishing, diving, snorkeling – ie mostly water related – so if you have recommendations regarding specific models and accessories then shout with that as well – thanks and regards

  • robert

    Why was the gopro sold with an underwater housing up to 60M if the underwater footage is out of focus? I was so excited to get the camera…but now hardly use it because the underwater footage is blurred and useless! Is there a way to get the footage focused? I have since heard that a private person is making new housings for the gopro which enables focused underwater footage. Does gopro sell housings that enable focused underwater footage? If so what is it and what does it cost? Is gopro aware of the focus issue….or is my camera broken?
    Thanks

    • Hi Robert

      The housing comes standard with a fish eye type lens since its ideal for the majority of the sports its used in. Now with underwater footage becoming more popular we sell a flat lens which rectifies the problem. It’s not a housing that needs to be replaced, just the lens.
      I will send you our GoPro order form which has this accessory listed.

      Thanks!

  • Jaco Bekker

  • Marius

    Hey, I am interested in the Drift HD, but need a waterproof housing to go with it. When will the waterproof housing be available for this model since I’ve been told the older HD170 and X170′s housings don’t fit the new model – or do they?

    Can you send me a pricelist please?

    Thx
    Marius

    • Hi Marius

      The 50 meter waterproof housing will be available soon after the Drift HD arrives which also should be next week. We have 50 arriving and are currently being pre-bought/ booked.
      I will email you the current Drift pricelist now.

  • Richard

    Hi There, could you guys please send me a price on the full HD GoPro cam with attachments for the following please?

    I ride MTB & MX bikes so I guess a helmet mount is fine?

    I also bodyboard but I dont think the surf mounting will stick to a foam bodyboard so please also include a price for one of those extensions/hand grips.

    I assume the camera comes with some attachments too?!?!? Please let me know.

  • David

    Hi, I would like a camera for scuba diving. What would be the best option and the best option to mount it?

    • Hi David

      The best for this would be the GoPro which all come with 60 meter underwater casings. A wrist mount is a great (perhaps the best) mount for you to use for this too.
      Thanks

      • David

  • StephenF

    I would like to mount the GoPro inside my vehicle.
    1. Please advise if the unit can be mounted upside down? Will the unit correct the video?
    2. How will a person get rid of shake? Does the GoPro have image stabilisation?
    Regards
    Stephen

    • Hi StephenF

      Apologies for the late reply…
      In answer to your questions:

      • There is a specific upside down function on the camera.
      • The camera has stabilization but the better the mounting the better the footage.

      If you have any more questions you can email us on hello (@) adventurecameras .co.za (remove brackets () and spaces)

    I run a fishing charter operation in Zanzibar and have had a few clients using your cameras onboard the boat… Time to purchase my own one… What model would you recommend???

    I will be in Cape Town in the next couple of weeks for a day or two, would it be possible to arrange to view your products and purchase what i need… Please forward me some contact details…

    Regards

    Byron

    • Hi Bryon

      Great to hear the cameras are well spread across Africa!
      Each GoPro camera comes with a 60 meter underwater casing and has the same specs in its level. What separates them are the mounts they come with (I.e. the Surf edition has surf and water related mounts/ accessories). I’d suggest spending some time on our site and looking through the various cameras on offer to see which suits your needs best.
      I will email you my details now too.

  • Dirk

    Hey there.

    I am a diver and would be looking at purchasing for that purpose. Can you please send me pricing and further info on the featurwes and benifits. Also do you stock the Gopro HD 2. I am assuming this is the new generation model, is this correct.

    Thanks

    Keith

    • Hi Keith, an email has been sent with all prices. As well as our online GoPro brochure.
      Yes the GoPro HERO 2 is the new generation model and currently kicks ass!

  • Phil Osborne

    I am a motorsports enthusiast, specifically SCCA autocross and track days. I also like to video trips, and am planning a trip from TX to California in June. I am torn between the Go Pro 2 HD MotorSports package, and the Drift HD package (which appears not to include a suction cup mount) I like the remote off/on switch for the Drift HD, as well as other features such as video monitoring capability. I also like the Go Pro HD 2 MotorSports for it rugged features, but dislike not having the view finder and off/on remote.
    Bottom line, I am ready to purchase one or the other, as I feel for the price, none of the other sports cameras in that price range can compare. Based on my information above, which camera would you reccomend? Also, please send me a price list and available extras for both cameras.
    Thanks much for your time.
    Phil O.
