Well HDMI is not very well suited for long runs..
Officially HDMI can not be longer than 10 meters.. But in practise it depends a lot on the acctual device behind it.
We see this same problem with the GoPro 2. The internal driver on such camera's are intended to have a short cable to your monitor to show images from the cam on your big screen at home. As build for home use it does not have a very strong output that can boost and carry the signal over lenghts of cable.
The best you can do is test a booster, HDMI to UTP (active version as they have buffers) or go for the HDMI > HD-SDI which will give you the possibility to run 100 meter BNC cable to your mixer.
