I'm shopping for an action cam, but the Go Pros are pricy. These are much more affordable at $69.00 and $119.00. Resolution is 5.1 mp. One is 1.7" lcd display and the other is 2.0" display w touchscreen. Yes, you can get the bike and helmet mounts separate. Is this a case of "you get what you pay for" or is it a good value?

i would try the $69 one its the same camera guts as the more expensive one, the only difference is the led screen. most stores give you 30 days if you want to return it.

I honestly believe that you get what you pay for.

i highly suggest SJCAM, they are around 100$, they are gopro clones. In the box they give, basically, all of the gopro mounts. Here is a video I shot with it

I have used gopro 2. Contour roam. And now using sony action cam mini. Lost the contour skydiving. Gopro is used for scuba. Action cam is for motorcycle.
