GoPro HD Motorsports Hero any good?

BB_cornelius · 08-10-2010, 10:32 PM

I have been looking around for a good camera to mount on my M3 so I can take videos of my spirited drives. Is this one any good? I have heard good and bad things about it and I was wondering what you guys think of it.

I'm very happy with mine. Here's some videos that I've shot with the Hero HD:

For the price, I rather spend the money on a better overall camera and mount, while it may cost more, it'll have more uses than JUST a camera you attach to your car. Not having an external mic input is a killer for me too
