Ive been considering getting a contour but dont know many people that have one, a ton of people like gopro and thats why it has its reputation but i dont know if i want to shell out 300 bucks for a camera that has the same specs as the contour 2+. Is it worth it to pay extra for the gopro? and how are contour's cameras?

I have a Hero 3 and it takes some really sick footage! That being said I've been having some problems with it lately...

I have had a couple GoPros and they have never let me down. I have beaten on them all year round in really cold weather, hot summer days, and underwater.

The contour+ 2 is $399. The go pro black edition is also $399 but it completely dominates the contour. Even the silver edition at $299 is really good. The choice is simple for me.
