So all in all, a pretty good camera. I would reccomend it. The only downfall is that it doesn't perform well in the cold. I used it snowmobiling a few times and realized it only records for a few minutes when cold. I did some research and found out that if you start recording for a minute in a warm environment (aka the truck or cabin) before riding, then leave it recording when you start riding it works for some reason. Idk dude. Good quality though.

The GoPro 5 Session is very versatile and takes great pictures in the daylight. Wish low light features were better!

Using this camera for still video shots is great. It can be a bit shaky because I feel the Go Pro 5 Black is better in stabilizing. I MTB and use it for music applications so I ended up getting both. It just depends on what you plan to mainly use it for. Better Quality with stabilization and touch screen get Go Pro 5 Black.... No touch screen a little bit less quality in stabilization but great for smooth shots (get a gimble) get the Go Pro 5 Session.
