Professional storytelling demands the right tools and the right technology. Designed as our first hands-free camera for the true filmer, the Contour+ delivers both for this advanced segment with expanded capabilities and supplemental features. Packed with the highest level of progression of any hands-free to hit the market, Contour+ is made to capture not only the action but also the full story with depth, focus and clarity. The result is rich video from one camera with all the tools to do the job.
Stunning footage is what makes the shot and the Contour+ is specifically set up for capturing the perfect visual. The reason is a market-leading mix of tech functions from a six-element glass lens and 1080p video quality to adjustable white balance for dialing in the details of each location. The Contour+ also expands normal perspective with a F 2.8, superwide-angle lens, integrating peripherals and backdrops that get cropped with a narrower focus.
Action moves at real time, so why deal with a delay in the coverage? The Contour+ enables live streaming—via HDMI and external transmitter—creating a direct connection to film shoots, event coverage and contest runs. Whether for broadcast or simply building a following, this capability allows filmers and athletes to provide an inside window when the action is happening. No other hands-free can make this claim, so grab this one if you’re headed to the X Games.
With all our modern devices, connection is key—so we’ve made the Contour+ the most connected POV camera ever. First up is Bluetooth, which provides filmmakers a wireless viewfinder to check the angle on their phone before dropping in. The camera also connects via an HDMI port, allowing instant replay on a laptop or widescreen direct from the microSD card. The upside is eliminating the lag time of downloads and transfers when checking footage on location or back home.
Video is only one part of the story, which is why we’ve equipped the Contour+ with an external 2.5mm microphone jack. This crisp audio capability allows you to interview characters from friends and fellow athletes to random people that appear in your shots. And, by capturing dialogue that gets said in the heat of the moment, you’ll add an additional standout quality to segments and stories. It’s a tool utilized by true pros that we thought you might need. Just keep it clean.
In addition to the highlights, we’ve packed the Contour+ full of Contour’s filmmaking features that you might not know you need until you dive into the next project. Starting with legendary ContourHD video quality—complete with three resolutions, four frame rates and a 5 megapixel still mode—then integrating interactive GPS that will track speed, location and elevation at four times per second. The bottom line is that the Contour+ is stacked with everything you need to get the shot.
