BMux:
GoPro's are nice, but I'm not sure I want to pay the GoPro tax (much like Toyota tax).

For those of you interested, I was having a look at getting a dashcam installed, and from the quotes I have received, for the price of a GoPro, you can go a 1080P dual channel (front and rear) BlackVue dashcam fully installed.

Some models have their own power management so it won't drain your car battery, and it can record movement if someone bumps your vehicle in the car park for example. They are quite handy for insurance claims, or reporting idiot drivers on Facebook  :laughing7:

Something like this for example: http://www.blackvue.com/en/contents/sub1.asp?idx=25

I won't get into go pro vs other brands because I never really considered other brands but I use a go pro and these are my findings when researching.

We went with a hero4 mainly because it has a screen on the back so I can easily see what I am videoing. It has a good wifi set up built in so I can easily connect it to my phone or iPad etc to see/control what I am videoing when the go pro is mounted away from me.

I love its time-lapse features and its night time features, especially in low light.
