    I wish this camera was a little bit more user friendly. It takes unbelievable quality videos, but getting them into a format and edited for the big screen is not an easy task. If your willing to take the time to get comfortable with the system then this will be an awesome camera that you cant go wrong with.

    This thing is feature packed you can use your iphone as a viewfinder for the go pro with the app and it works well. Nice that i dont need to buy another accessory to use this feature. Out of the box battery was dead so charged it and i was recording right away.

    I have been a GoPro fan for a while, but this wan my first purchase. Camera is good (rugged, small, self contained), with decent battery life. I wish there was a modular battery, but given the small size, and the lower price than the full GoPro camera, I can't complain.

    Session 4 is great for your basic social media purposes. No is doesnt shoot 4k like it's big brother... But most of my use has been to YouTube so 4k isn't all that necessary yet. Perfect for those quick shots/alt angle shots. Good audio. Adding shallow water footy is a neat b-roll addition as well.

    I got this H4 Session to get a second camera angle as I edit my videos. Now I don't have to stop what I'm doing and move my Hero4 to get different angles. I did intentionally dunked it in the creek to get a fishes view and check its waterproofness. It still works.

    This was a gift for my 14 year old son, and so far he loves it. We had trouble with the sd card not being recognized, so we had to get a new one. Thankfully that solved the problem and he is busy recording himself on all his adventures now. I'm satisfied overall!

    This model is affordable, has lots of features and is easy to operate. Overall I'd rate it 4 out of 5 only because the menu options don't cycle through consistently and there are times it seems to have amnesia about the microSD card and fails to recognize it. Other than that I'd highly recommend it.

    i love this go pro. its a smaller model with no screen but it works with the app and you still get great shots. only thing is it has like 3-5 second lag from when you turn it on to record which may be important if you are trying to capture something asap

    This camera is great. There is some difficulty in getting it to download to my XP machine, but not the more recent machines. Also started just pooing out the card and downloading that way...it's the fastest. Greate picture and good wide lens.

    I used this to record my wedding from a different angle and it worked great. The quality turned out great. I also used it to record some go kart riding and other things on my honeymoon. Low light and brighter light videos all turned out great.

    We got this for my son and he loves this camera. He synced it up to his iPad and uses the iPad as a monitor for the go pro. Great quality video and good sound. I recommend getting the accessory pack as the camera really doesn't come with accessories.
