Re: GoPro Cam shares tumbling like a rock

I don't own a GoPro and don't really want one (I wouldn't turn down a gift, of course). But I'm also not a victim of selfy-itis. I've done 2 "action" videos from my airplane, using an inexpensive video camera I received as a gift--they're both on Youtube, showing a landing at Marble and a take off from there on another occasion. They were fun for me at the time I downloaded them (or is that uploading them?), but I don't know if they're interesting to others or not. For sure, a lot of videos I've watched on the computer are pretty boring. Even those with pretty exciting scenes are often poorly edited, kind of like mine which aren't edited at all.

So I can see why GP's stock might be going down. However, NASDAQ in general is not doing all that well. So they're really just keeping up (or down) with the crowd.

Ricoh's new camera

The WG-M2 packs a ton of features into a package costing just $300, including UHD 4K up to 30fps, 1080p up to 60fps, and 720p up to 120fps. One of the interesting features of the WG-M2 is its incredibly wide lens with an angle of view of 204° in the widest mode, and 151° in the Narrow mode. What might be the nicest feature of the camera is its durability, and the fact that you don't need an external housing to take it underwater. It's waterproof down to 65', shockproof up to 6.5', and freezeproof to a chilly 14°F, and with the built-in 1.5" LCD on top, you'll be able to monitor the whole time.
