Cheaper Go Pro alternative

Donie75

Can anyone recommend a cheaper alternative to a go pro camera. Looking for something waterproof for skiing, mtb and road cycling.
There seem to be lots of different options on eBay.
Any one recommend one?

A used GoPro? They're the by-word for 'wearable camera' for a reason, you know.

Cyclesuperstore have an older model GoPro on sale at the moment, with helmet strap and a few accessories:

It's priced at €225, but says, make them an offer...

Techmoan has a very good review of this camera on Youtube

I was looking at this recently and the website TechMoan pretty much narrows it down to 3 choices depending on budget & requirements. He says the SVC200 is the best cheap camera.

SJ1000, http://goo.gl/223fy1

Mobius, http://goo.gl/g8DVlQ

I'm probably going to order the Mobius myself as I only want it for commuting.

Thanks for the info. The SVC200 looks good. Had a look around online at secondand GoPro's but not sure what's a god one.

I got mine on ebay and I'm very happy with it.

Edit: I do like techmoan though and if he recommends something I'd trust him.
