gonna go get it today

now i can do some shooting and driving vids with a decent camera.

i said by spring id have vids with my cars/etc.. so yeah..

price isnt to bad for what you get.. just gotta decide what accesories i all need and shit.

planning on getting the 11.0 mega pixel version cuz its the best deal.. its either $199 for a 5.0mp...$299 for 11.0mp... or $399 for a 12.0mp..

did some research also, they dont come with any memory so imma have to buy that separate.. on a 16g card i guess u can get 40 minutes of video at 1920x1080.. so i might go with that or a 32 gig depending on price..

Yeah dude!

Get the Hero 2

Its the best bang for the buck.

I have one, I love it. I guess people were having trouble with the hero 3s.

The 2 is a quality machine. It remedies all of the shortcomings of the first hero, which despite its low price, I'd steer clear and upgrade to the second.
