ynot Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 Where's the best place to pick up a cpl more cards for them and what's your case look like Randy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAlaskan Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 I got my cards from frys electronics Terry, I think they were like $10 a piece. The cases that come with them are great! I'm not sure if RanDizzle has a different case, but in one of my videos (first time using the camera) it took a rock directly to the lense cover as we were leaving camp.....Didn't even mar the surface, cant even tell it got hit.... I'll throw a link to it up as soon as it loads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randog Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 I bought the soft carrying case from Target. pic below. Most everything else I got on Ebay ( camera, SD cards, batteries and charger. ) The lens cover is glass. they are definitely tough, but I'm on my third one from pits in them. You can buy the replacements on line at gopro.com. Jeremy has a good point on the new HD gopro. If I were just buying a camera I'd get the HD. The sample videos look way clearer than the wide camera. Don't know anyone that has an HD, so we need someone to bite the bullet. R- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randyvw Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 Where's the best place to pick up a cpl more cards for them and what's your case look like Randy? got my memory cards from costco...as i remember you had to buy 2. triple a batteries at costco too. kirkland costs almost half what duracell costs as i recall. and if yer gonna use that camera like randog does i would buy several lense covers(unless yer the lead dog, the scenery never changes).........hey, that would be a good screen name for somebody!

He had 2 days left. Now I am kicking myself for not buying one.. I bet he'd honor it as his ebay score is 100% DANG DANG DANG... but it was too low i thought it was fishy... like 29 cent gas huh Nick!!!
