    I'm looking to buy myself a Christmas present and thought I would run this across you guys that have more knowledge in this area. I've looked at so many different ones it makes my head spin, gopro, drift, sony, knock off gopro, you name it. The ones I have seen come with a bunch of accessories.

    The one I want needs to have a external mic hook up, I may do one track day but that's not my main focus. I would like to get one for around 250 or cheaper, but don't think that is possible with the feature I want.

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Have you had a chance to use the camera? Do you like it?

    I have and it works great, really good video quality. However I didn't have to get them to send a replacement battery, the original would not hold a good charge. But I believe the problem with the battery started at Jennings in Dec. When i plugged it in to charge, it tripped a breaker, don't think that would draw that much amps. New battery on the way so we'll see.
