    We live on acreage with cows and livestock. We can hook up this camera to the front of his truck and see what the truck "sees". It's pretty fun to climb out of our dry stock tank in 4 wheel drive and watch it from a different point of view!

    The camera is compact and easy to carry in all situations. I mainly use if for the video capabilities since it does not have a screen to see the filed of view when taking pictures unless it is linked to your phone. Great quality and easy to use.

    Very light and versatile. Fits anywhere and the picture quality is nice. Only complaint would be the inability to change out the battery.

    I bought four of these for the guys in my office. The feedback from them so far has been very positive. We love the smaller size and profile.

    I like this little guy, especially since they dropped the price. My only issues is it picks up terrible wind noise and no option for an external mic. I may use it in a different way next time, but its a good unit overall

    Ok so I own three GoPro cameras, this being my third purchase and truthfully I wish I had just bought three of these. This camera is so easy to use! I have used it for snowboarding and surfing, the one touch Instant recording is amazing and so simple! I literally just tap the top right before I paddle for a wave and you hear three beeps and you know you're recording. It's that easy...

    The only thing I wish it had was a screen but obviously it's a less expensive model so for the money, pretty good overall.

    This camera is amazing. It has a quick setup that allows quick use on the go. The phone app makes it easy to change your shots without having to move the camera from your shot location. Five stars for sure!

    I have had all the other go pros so I gave this one a shot. I really like it but no one sells any accessories for it. No cases that fit it snugly like the others and nothing at all. A little disappointing.
