Mrtambourineman:
So I plunked down $100 bucks for a GoPro knock off to replace the old Kodak digital video camera of mine that died last summer.  Go pro's are a bit ridiculously priced and at that price I couldn't resist trying this one out.  Hope its not a POS!   

Sir Real:
What are you going to use it for, bike rides, drone flights...?

Mrtambourineman:
I want to use it for taking video and some stills while snorkelling mainly.  It will get some use on my bike too (in fact I just tested it on my bike during my morning commute).  With all the various mounts that came with it I'm sure I'll try it out other ways for shitsngiggles.  Maybe strap it to my kid while he goofs around and see what that looks like.   

The Turtle Whisperer:
They're pretty damn decent. 

Search flickr for gopro photo groups.  Some incredible stuff. 

Mrtambourineman:
So I ran the camera both ways on my commute yesterday.  It definitely struggles with low light, but I found - particularly after I changed its orientation relative to my headlights - that its actually pretty decent on streets that are well lit.  So far I'm pleasantly surprised.  Now I just need to get a handle attachment for snorkleing.
