I just did some research on some of the action cams out there. I just bought 2 Sony av200 for my kids for Christmas . They are 199.00 on Amazon , the other one I looked into was the ION that is sold by radio shack there is a YouTube comparison against the GoPro, they both have there own pros and cons but the ion is way cheaper. It also makes a price difference in if you want wifi or not . Good luck do a action cam review search and compare them all for your needs and wants.
