They are the best on the market that's why all the TV shows use them like Top Gear, Fifth Gear and Ken Block.
Which one to buy is all about how much you want to spend, I have a Hero HD on ebay now as I have just ordered a new Hero 3 Silver edition.

If you want the link PM me and I will give you the link.

The Hero HD are a very good camera you can pick them up for £100 to £150.
The Hero 2 is just about the same apart from a better sensor and software upgrade.
The Hero 3 is the all new camera lots of new features wifi, new look and 3 different spec levels
White edition 5MP, Silver edition 11MP and the Black edition 12MP with remote control fob.

I have had 3 gopro cameras and love them and have it on side of my helmet most of the time on out on my bike.

As long as your aware that as far as I know, the only NEW gopro is the more expensive Black Hero 3.
The silver and white are just re-packaged Hero and Hero2 hardware, a nicer / smaller package tho.

Just as a slight derail, where have you folks mounted your cameras to your SVs? In particular, has anyone used the roll bar mount to connect it a fork leg?
