I am looking at getting a used GoPro camera. I am looking for something in the 100$ range so please keep that in mind. I was wondering what would be the best models to look for. Any advice would be great.

I doubt you'll find a GoPro HD in that price range. Maybe a 960. If you see a 960 for a hundred or less jump on it. Picture quality is still awesome. It just doesn't do 1080p or 720px60 frames per second.

Now that the new HD2 model is out you might get lucky on ebay. Just be careful. I've seen people trying to pass off the old models as HD ones for way more than they're worth. You might even try a wanted ad in the classifieds here. You never know.

Thanks for the reply. Is there anyway to tell the difference in models by a picture?

Not sure about that. I haven't held two side by side. The old SD models aren't as big, depth wise. The HD is very noticeably deeper. Not sure about the 960 though. Never seen one in person.
