I am completely satisfied with the "cheap GoPro"! You have to know what you want to use them, and that they may otherwise take a FullHD Wide. I still have two 3 Black Editions and use them as Onboard cameras in the race car. For exteriors me these were always precious and so I now use the new Hero for all "risky" shots where there is a danger that the Cam can break. The first use it has passed last weekend with flying colors.
