    In consideration that my most recent GoPro was a Hero 2, the Hero 5 is much nicer! The addition of a built in screen is especially nice. I'm not totally comfortable using it in inclement weather, without the additional waterproof housing as I've heard some complain that water still gets in, but the stability and video quality are quite a bit better than what I've been used to having. No mountain bike adventures yet, which will likely be it's main usage, but it has really rocked with the Karma Grip I was gifted for Christmas.

    Exceptional camera! Love it for the clear and extremely smooth slow motion and time lapse. Picture mode is also great, very comparable to the pics I took on the iPhone 7 Plus. However, vids or pics are Best in daylight. Night time vids get a little blurry and grainy. The antishake and audio are not so good, but, this is an action cam. I was going to buy the sony fdr-x3000, but decided on this as having the best value, and I am glad I did it. I also purchased the GoPro Karma Grip to help with the anti shake problem.

    I purchased this camera at Best Buy, while riding through S.Dakota. It fell off my motorcycle doing 60mph. I thought for sure it was a goner, but other than a few scratches it works fine. This is one tuff little camera.
