Go pro hero 3 silver or action cam.

[Nikog]

debating buying a cam and need advice

Go black or go home. Literally. If your getting anything below black, there is no point in buying a hero 3 when a hero 2 will do you just as good.

And also, I have a black and I love it! Don't have much info on the action cam.

Thanks I'll just get a 2. Which edition of the 2 is the best?

i thought every hero 3 have a wi fi bacpac built in. i would get that over a 2.

Action cam is pretty good, it has really good stabilization built in, but it has downsides.

If your getting it for the goggle strap thing, son't bother because unless you want to suffocate your face it will shake

Any form of sleakness is removed by the fact you can't adjust the angle without this massive thing

I've got some Action cam stuff in my video section. (it was filmed at 1080p but I think I may have saved it at something lower)

The action cam is a good $100 cheaper then the Black Edition Gopro, but there are some cons.

You're still saving money if you buy the 2 with the bacpac

and also I never use the wifi on my black anyway. Sometimes for the remote.
