Camera for Road Trip

Here's a video on the fake GoPro. It's from a YouTuber I watch. There is a reason they are cheap.

That's not too bad, for $50

It depends what you want it for. Once you have used a GoPro you won't go back. Buy the best in your budget like with everything.

I'll probably give one of the two that have links. I don't really want to be shelling out £300 odd if I only use it a couple of times. I don't really do any adventure sports anymore, (mind is willing, body is broken :lol if they were around 20/30 years ago when I was skydiving and canoeing then I'd definitely have a top notch one. I don't even care about the sound quality, although on reflection I might.

If I catch the 'bug' for them then yeah, it could be on the cards

Coincidentally I've been researching this very subject for my newly acquired trackday car. GoPro are obviously the market leaders but do seem to be a tad on the expensive side. I was wondering if there were alternatives so spent a while looking around. In the end I bought this (Ricoh WG M2) as a half-way house between expensive (GoPro) and the very cheap stuff you see on eBay ....

You can get them for around £170 and there are also various mounting accessories available with magnetic or suction cup bases.
