A friend bought a basic GoPro Hero (he has more cash than I) and used it to video riding at Glentress last weekend. I was impressed by both the quality of the footage and the sub £100 price.
I would like to save up for one with my ‘pocket money’, but was wondering if anyone has any experiences with the basic Hero, GoPro 4, 3 white, 3+ and any other of the many recent models? I think the top end models at over £200 are probably more than I need/want to spend.
The basic model looks very good value, but I can’t help thinking if you scratched the lens, you would be stuffed. Not sure if the battery life would ever be an issue (as you can not add another battery)?
