Any cheap alternatives to a gopro? (Under 150$)

So had my birthday a few days ago and a buddy of mine sent me 150 USD. :D and im thinking about getting a camera and a suction cup for just random things (drives/exhaust clips/cruises) but a new gopro is a little expensive for me :( so does anybody recommend a good camera for what i mentioned and maybe photos also.

Trying to stay under 150 USD. The suction cup and all that doesn't have to come with it for now.
 
Try. www.denver-electronics.com , I've had one of the older models for a few years and it works great, the newer model came out in the summer and it's even closer to a go-pro than the old one and about 1/10th the price !
 
I was going to suggest a Contour Roam 2, but I think the price is a bit higher than your budget (about $20USD more, on Amazon at the moment). I have had one for a couple of years and I love it. It actually looks like a sports camera should (and has some great mounting accessories available) instead of a big tellytubby box looking as aerodynamic as a brick. Okay, so I'm biased.... sorry :oops:

My mate got an SJ4000 cheap as chips came with a massive selection of mounts and accessories and it cost about £40 ($60) well worth looking into

That looks interesting, is it a GoPro knock off?

Basically yes, but unlike go pro which charge extra for all the accessories the sj4000 includes them all. I was impressed by it and very tempted to get one myself even though I was never that bothered about getting a go pro these are just so cheap

I have the wifi model of this and its great. My mates have the GoPros and you cant tell the difference in the picture quality. Exactly the same size as the gopro too so all the accessories made for gopro will fit this.
