^^^agreed
Yeh not that GoPros aren't good it is just i am looking for a hand held video camera.
You mean the ones that are on the end of the poles?
Nah i don't want a go pro looking for something like a Sony Hand-Cam if anyone has something like that they want to sell let us know.

Pure Digital 'Ultra HD' is what you want, its a bit bigger then a packet of durries, films 50 fps at 720p, has a screw thread on the bottom so you can mount it on shit annnd is cheap enough that when you crash and its broken you dont want to hang yourself 

how much are they worth.
ive got a lumix tough, its realy high quality, wont break if u drop it... im makeing it mountable for my board 2,.. pre much perfect...
$150 - $200 on Ebay
if you got some money to spend a cannon 500D is good entry level camera if you got the cashola

I have one of these:

This is about as good as handycams get. Shoots from an internal solid state drive. Uses the same Exmor sensor as my $4000 camera, uses a very wide G lens, does 10x optical, shoots 12mp stills. Retails at $1400 now but retailed at $1900 when I got it last November. 4 months ago it was the best and most expensive handycam sony offered. Still has Warranty until next November.

 

Its only been used for 1 day. This is because I only bought it to use it once for a video job, not because there is anything wrong with it. You can have it for $700 if you want it, I still have the box, manuals, disks, receipts. The whole thing is as new
