i know there are a lot of threads concerning this topic, but i have yet to see a poll on it, so im just curious to see what the overal verdict is. i am more of a fan of the GoPro. but my friend likes the Contour. what does everyone else thing?

this is taking everything into account. Mounts, ease of use, price, accessories etc.

First off all i dont really understand the purpose of this thread.
Is it to know what camera that has sold the most or is it to know what camera is the best?

Because making a poll like this, people that bought the Gopro will vote Gopro because they feelt it was the best camera and vice versa.
So the result of your poll will basicly only show you the marketshare of the cameras.

Mounts, i would say that none of the included are good. If you hit the door while exiting with the Gopro it will/might offset the camera angle.
Do the same with the Contour and it might fall off.
So which is best?
You dont buy a Sony 105 and use the stock mount (they dont have one, but still).

Price, the pricedifference is $20 i hope you are not making your decisions on $20.
Or where you thinking Gopro/Contour vs Sony?

Accessories, You mean bags and stickers?

Videoquality is in my opinion about the same if you look at the raw videofiles.
I think the waterproof case that comes with the Gopro makes the sound horrible, and i dont know if its because of the case that you hear this beepingsound from the camera.
But also cudos for the case, Contour has waterproof case but it costs extra.

The Gopro has a much bigger chance of snagging as its bulkier than the Contour.

If you want a camera that nobody will ever steal from you it would be the Gopro, because it is so UGLY

Find out what you need first.
Do you need the waterproof case?
Where will you use the camera? Only in skydiving?
Do you need the ability to take still pictures.
And so on, and you will find out which is the best for you and not which has the biggest marketshare.
