You can get a lot of me-too products these days. Once a really popular item takes off from one manufacturer, it's only a matter of time before imitators surface. Sometimes they are other major firms, sometimes they are people of whom you have never heard.
This circumstance arose when the GoPro brand came out and presented the world with a chance to record their adventures without having to fiddle with the gear. I suspect they also record a lot more dangerous and disasterous things...indeed YouFoolTube has hours of Russian drivers confirming my suspicions...
Well, it turns out that one of the reasons that people sometimes buy off-brand copies of merchandise is the idea that they think that they can get it at a cheaper price than the real gear. No more need to try this if you have a hankering for a GoPro - they have issued the GoPro for Everyman and you can do the thing right the first time.
The Hero is the lowest-price complete kit for Go pro. it features 5MP resolution, 1080 at 30 and 25 FPS...or 720 at 60-50 FPS. The view is wide-angle and you can also do time-lapse with it.
If course it fits all GoPro mounts and accessories and it waterproof to 40 metres.
And at $ 179 walk away, you can't afford to T-bone a Maserati without it...
