    Love this camera. It is priced very reasonable to see if Go Pro is for you. I use it a work on my charter bus and in private life for hikes. Its always recording so you never miss a shot. At home you can pull off screen shots for pictures or a short video. Not really happy with Go Pro video software but you can use third party software if you prefer.

    I'm Sure the Session 5 fixes issues

    First of all you can't beat it for the price. At half the price of the Session 5 it was an easy choice. The only issue I have is with the mic switching. It intelligently switches between mice for the best sound but you don't know which one so sometimes you get terrible sound quality on clips. I love how versatile and indestructible it is.

    This was my first GoPro purchase. I didn't really read the manual before using so I had difficulty getting started on my trip but managed to figure it out as I used it more. It's an easy way to take an underwater camera with you on your adventures! I'm thinking of getting the GoPro Hero in the future so I have a display screen to see pictures.

    The reason I bought this GoPro was because I didn't want a huge camera sticking off of my helmet. Because of the small form factor it fits well. The only thing I don't like this that it picks up a lot of wind noise because their is no extra case to put around the camera when going a certain speed.

    I purchased this for my pre-teen daughter as she likes to make YouTube videos. It works great for her to make her own videos as we travel but we have since found out that in regards to picking up the sounds, it isn't the best. It works great and is nice and compact otherwise. If you're looking for a basic Go Pro, this is it.

    Use it for the car, outdoor activities, law enforcement confrontation, and everything else. A live diary of sorts. Be prepared to purchase multiple sd cards unless you have the time to edit and download videos to your phone; if not, just label you sd card and start on a new one.

    I bought this camera for a trip to Yosemite. It was perfect! We recorded the whole trip then took photos from the videos we recorded. Not only did we take epic photos we have the videos to watch if we want. It being waterproof was vital while hiking up the waterfall trails. Perfect!

    This camera took a beating at kilington Vt, Snowbird, and Park City Utah and keeps on ticking. It took the worst beating mounted to my snowboard. Worth the money after taking that kind of abuse... Easy to use and the audible power on / off came in handy when mounted on a helmet.

    I got this GoPro as a gift before taking a trip out of the country. It was perfect for taking in the pool, ocean, hold during parasailing and while riding a banana boat. The max 64gig microSD card was never a problem, plenty of space for the entire trip. At $200, its the perfect GoPro.

    My grandson is a BMX bike rider and he wanted a camera he could mount either on his bike or on his helmet. We got the camera because it was the right size and would not interfere with his riding. He has used it many times and get a lot of enjoyment of being able to see his rides after he finishes. Highly recommend.

    We bought the GoPro for our granddaughter on her 16th birthday. She loves it and uses it during her soccer practices. She went on line and watched the tutorials. This Thanksgiving, she will be going to Mexico with her family and will use her GoPro when she snorkels.

    The images are very sharp and clear. The Video makes you feel you are still in the moment. Fantastic..Drove through weather that ranged from very bright and sunny to overcast and gray, the camera compensated for various light conditions and provided great pictures!.
