    I hear the go pro is an awesome camera which captures experiences to share. However, when I gave this gift to my outfield for Christmas it was broken when he opened it. Delayed the use of the product.

    This camera is awesome, its features are very well designed. The only problem with it is that it will get warm really fast after 30 minutes of use.

    I originally got the session thinking it would be good enough for my needs. I ended up taking it back and bought a gopro hero 4 black.

    I use this when I'm flying and it works perfect with a suction cup mount. Can put it almost anywhere in the cockpit and get great videos.

    Just had to figure out how to get it going correctly. But once we figured it out, we had a great time using it and getting good footage.

    Wanted a small video device for holidays, out door recreation and first person recording. I was not disappointed. It's great for all our out door fun and small enough to put in your pocket. For holidays and get together, I just turn it on, set it the table and record the room. Later, I go back into I-video on my Mac and edit, burn to DVD and watch. Super easy, super cool and great memories forever.
