First Look: Contour ROAM2 - Same Price, More Fun 7

You asked for it, they did it. Contour's new ROAM2 packs more bunch for the same buck. Major upgrades from the original ROAM include the ability to record at 60 frames per second in 720p, four snazzy anodized color options, and tuned video quality.

Just like it's predecessor, the ROAM2 is made to be simple and quick. Contour's Instant On-Record switch helps ensure it's ready to roll when you are. It's also waterproof to one meter, which these fun lovers took full advantage of while making this promo video (be sure to enable HD):
