    Good price for the gopro


    I just bought this and am waiting on delivery. I will report back on quality but looks a good deal for the price.

    Yes it is good. But as a starter camera, it's a bit high-end. You can get great quality cameras for far less that will be fine for youtube (unless you wanna make super slow-mo stuff.

    Agreed. I've never really considered GoPros as 'Youtube' cameras but I suppose it depends on the content.

    I'd say it's a poor choice if you're not using it for something a bit rough and tumble. I have one that I strap to my bike and it's great for that superb footage. But if I was using it to film people and not scenery/action I would go for something else. The GoPro (and action cams in general) have very wide angle lenses which will make people/faces look off/stretched.
