might want to check this out instead...i bought it and also have a go pro....i honestly think this is way better than GoPro and you can't beat the price..do some research if your not to sure on purchasing...but, i do have it and i love it...took about 3 days to get from delivery (in CA).

I've been through two already, the side up and down button break after a short amount of time pretty common with these and the SJCAM models. The button breaks at the soldered on switch and you need to pull the whole thing apart and have new switch surface mounted...i just chucked em in the bin and have been on the lookout since.

It's a shame because apart from that they really are a good camera for the price.

This is what I prefer, you can find older models cheaper I think. Contour Action Cameras - Official Website

damn I didn't know that!...I got it for my wedding on the 22nd...figured it was better than paying 2k for a videographer....I also have the GoPro so I guess at least I have a backup.

Thanks!
