Sweet, I use a GoPro Hero 2 and a Edutige Etm 001 Mic, They work nicely together. I don't really want to mount them on my Icon helmet though

Cool, I was thinking about getting a used gopro hero 2 because of the external mic, then using the ion to mount on my bike somewhere

How much did the cam and the mic cost together?

I'm getting tired of having to sync the seperate audio and video of every vlog lol

If I remember correctly, I spent $250 on a lot with the GoPro and multiple mounts and then the Mic was $35, so it's just around the $300 ball park but I received quite a bit with my GoPro.

Thanks for the link buddy - hey not bad quality at all, footage is great, the sound is a little thin but still you have got the wind noise really low and I've heard people get worse sound using the mainstream cameras.

Thanks dude! I always try to prove that you don't need a lot of money to do things you love

I'll look into a mix with a more full sound and they have the ion air pro 3 out w/ an ext mic... So I may look in to that as well
