Amazzzzing
I used this last week on a ski trip to the great Northwest. Took some video doing night skiing it worked great. The picture quality is amazing. The 170 degree lense will pick up everything that you shoot.

great cam for all around
pretty amazing little camera. best part is that you can use it for anything you want with little to no modification. other camereas may be cheaper or have different qualities like viewfinders but unlike the other mini cameras it is the most adaptable to environments. quality isnt the same as on gopro's website but is close, probably because of unknown factors though like video editing dont know why they chose to put the lense on the fat part of the rectangle but it is a little design flaw that makes it only a bit more obnoxious while mounted on head underwater shooting is a little blurry but if you buy a seperate lense it will fix it, i really dislike that it doesent float unless you buy a diff backdoor because it is always on your mind otherwise. make sure where you mount doesent shake or have bad lighting because the hd quality will suffer otherwise

Never before footage
I've killed several cameras climbing & rafting but yet I've always missed the best shots because of belaying, etc. NOT ANY MORE. They are a little shaky on mountain bikes but wil be perfect for climbing, rafting, etc.

Great gadget for action sports
I used the camera on skiing trips out west and for several water sports like surfing & kiteboarding, and I'm pleased by the performance of this camera. The picture is phenomenal for a small camera like this. The handling is really easy and the housing can handle every crash. Even a direct hit by a branch couldn't harm the housing in any way. Overall I would recommend this gadget to every one who is looking for camera to record all there fun sport activities.

Who wouldn't want this thing. It's awesome! Great product in great condition with fast and reliable shipping. The box it came in was a little small. Packaging always makes a customer feel better. I think you guys should match prices to other websites though.
