Thinking About Upgrading...

[The_Pauly]

Morning everyone, I haven't posted for a long-ass time, so bear with me while I get used to the new format site lol.

I've been thinking about upgrading my old Drift HD170 Stealth for a while now, possibly to a Ghost or Ghost S.
Now, I've heard some bad things about the quality of the Ghost S, but I was wondering if anyone could share any personal experiences that they've had with the other cameras in the Drift range, or offer up any alternatives if possible?

Thanks in advance,

A few have reported misting issues with the Ghost S (Calm Biker, Quentin Redbeard and Suznet), although there's others that haven't reported it either. Basically when it gets cold, you get fogging in the lens.

The HD Ghost seems to be OK from what I can tell, few people had some grumbles when updating firmware. Can't grumble about my HD Ghost though.

Ghost HD owner...haven't really seen the fogging issue that Lurch and other have described. Though I live somewhere really hot so I can't say for sure if I won't see it in the coming months. As for video quality I record in 1080/30fps, I think the quality is good, though this is my first action camera and I can't comment on other cameras video quality.
