Contour have announced the release of their new action camera the ContourRoam. The Roam is latest in growing range of high-quality hd video cameras and follows the ContourGPS and ContourPlus. We'll have the Roam on www.actioncameras.co.uk very soon.

Contour are clearly very excited, here's what they had to say:

"Oh man. It's on. It's so on. Today is a big day for us. Today we unleash the beast that is ContourRoam. It's been a long time coming, and we are freakin' pumped to share this camera with you. It's the camera for every man (or woman - hey ladies!!). It's absolutely the easiest camera you'll ever use - so easy it makes a toaster seem complicated. It features a single Instant-On-Record Switch so you'll know it’s on so there’s no more guesswork about whether you’re recording or not. It's got a 170 degree wide angle beauty of a lens. Oh, and did we mention it's waterproof right out of the box? Without a case up to one meter? Say what? Sounds pretty rad, right?"
