How many of you guys have one, and what do you think about them?

I have the $200 Hero 3 and use it mainly for data collection. I like it and it seems to be pretty durable.

Some samples:

Cool Video!
Aren't all digital cameras data collecting machines?  :smile16:

Thanks Jim, I guess it could be called a data collecting machine. lol

Where it helped me was finding out what my prop flash and pull down was. I also noticed that at the races you can see the bouys and get approximate rpm readings at the start beam. 660', 1000', 1188' and 1/4 mile marks. Ya I know it's still a little over geared. lol

We used ours to monitor the butterfly's on the carburetors to see if they were opening all the way. That is when we were dynoing the Chevy.
