The following is an assembly of clips pretty much from my first outing with my GoPro Hero. Not exactly heroic and not shot with any real end result in mind.
Here it is (external link)

For the money I think it is an excellent little tool. I tried to use it as you would a normal camera (well sort of) to get a feel for the footage.

It is obviously very clear and that is perhaps my main gripe with it. It's certainly not what you would call "Cinematic" and the depth of field is so extreme as to be almost ridiculous. In fairness it isn't meant to be a primary camera and all these "issues" are what makes it great at doing what it does. It's a stunt camera.

As a second (or third) camera, which can be put in places you wouldn't consider for your DSLR, it is brilliant. Even quite fun to have in your pocket for those odd times when you wished you had a camera.
