I was thinking of getting a GoPro also but when I saw the Fisheye effect that can't be shut off it kinda turned me off from buying,....and besides I got a video camera on my smartphone for the few times I would use it vs a snapshot...to each their own. enjoy...........

I have a great little video camera, Kodak Zi8, but it doesn't take pictures unless I turn it on and aim it at something.

I have one of those also in a draw somewhere takes great video and audio...

Donny, one of the advantages with the Ultra Wide Angle lens is that if you mount the camera on your keyboard and face it at the dancefloor, it would capture everyone on the dancefloor - not just a few folks in the general direction the camera is pointed, and as you can hear, the audio is exceptional. Just point, shoot and everyone except you is in the video. If you mounted it three feet behind you, both you and entire audience would be captured, along with really good audio. Can't do that with a cell phone camera, or any of the others I currently own.

Good luck,

Gary

Gary can't wait to see some GoPro creations from your gigs.. Have fun..

Tony I'm in the same boat not sure how much I could have become an expert skier.


P.S. We were never extreme skiers, we had the "fear" factor of breaking legs, arms etc.


Good luck Gary and Donny looks like you guys could take a hit with that major snowfall. Tony I know you folks in RI could get hit too!

Big Snow coming here soon but nothing we haven't experienced before ...part of the beauty of North East Livin'

6+ inches around mid state closer to the shore, more further south ...
