GoPro is the world's most versatile camera and weighing less than 3 ounces.It is the best smallest camera you will find. You will often see extreme sports dudes using this very small but very epic camera.You can mount it to pretty much anything and will stay pretty stable.
Before that I had never owned a camera of any kind so I was a totally novis. But luckily I had the internet so I looked at some tips and was just scanning the web and youtube for days. There is this one dude,Mic and has like 300 and counting go pro tips. I defiantly found him and his tips helpful and so if you have a Gopro you should TOTALLY look into his youtube channel.
