This is NS.... gopro obviously. Personally gopro 1080 is a better deal, 720p at 60p and 1080p for $300? Can't go wrong with tall that.

gopro technically has more shooting modes. 60p on such a tiny cam? cant beat that. i find that gopros also have better colors/resolution.

the only downside is that everyone and their mom has one.

gopro is waterproof and practically bomb-proof while contour is "weather proof" (i.e. sneaky way of saying "not waterproof"

'he only downside is that everyone and their mom has one.'

Just watch movies shot with both. In my opinion GoPro footage always looks much more stable, clear, and vivid than Contour footage.
