Is the Hero 2 worth the extra?

IMO no, but some believe it is. The new one has a bigger sensor which can make the quality better, but for the edits i produce i wont notice a difference. It also has a better camera, but i have never once used the camera feature on my go pro, so that's not worth it. All depends on what your using it for.

I was gonna use it for edits. The Original seems like it will work great

not worth the upgrade. but if its your first gopro you may aswell. costs the same as when the original hero came out!

 

[jdubbs.]

Im thinking of just going for the original and getting the bigger SD. thanks tho

I have zero complaints with my original gopro, and i really see no reason to upgrade. save the money and go with the original hero

not worth it unless you want to shoot in 1080 wide screen. the original shoots 1030 at like 127 degrees and the new one shoots it at 170 degrees

I bought the Hero2 because..well, my dog broke the screen and button on my first one. From what I've seen, the Hero2 does a much better job in bright sunlight, where the original one can sometimes over expose it. I'm also happy with the better photos, mostly because I'm going to the Philippines next week and it will be my underwater camera.

but in all, the regular Hero is probably the best option
