So this genius camera just followed me taking pix at every turn (timed interval)...so neat

I have used the handlebar mounts (biking) and the suction cup mount (JEEPING) and haven't used the headstrap mount but that is on my list for a kayaking trip next week. All the police in the town I live now ALWAYS wear a wide angle camera with remote control logging shots into a database, extending the usual police dash camera idea. I think that applies in spades to GoPRO. If you have it, you will use it. There is a lot to learn on the various parts and pieces and options with this system. One has to grow into being a GoPro practical engineer, but this is one of those gotta have accessories even if (in my case) I use mostly the camera for stills and on a mount (window, bike, tripod) that lets the camera just do its thing.

Awesome Headstrap!

I love this headstrap! So far I've wore it for a half marathon, kayaking, and snorkeling. All with great results. First of all, the strap is very comfortable. If I wear it above a hat I barely notice it's there. The strap is adjustable so you can get a tight fit and not have to worry about it falling off during filming. I had no problem wearing this during my half marathon, other than the fact I looked like a total nerd... Second, the shaking on the film is not bad. The whole point of getting a GoPro is to see from the actor's perspective. So if I'm running, I expect to see movement. I debated about getting this or the chest strap for running and decided that a headstrap would avoid the back & forth sway (yaw axis) you would get with a chest strap (not to mention your arms getting in the way). I'm very happy with my choice. Checkout the video for the NYC Half: http://youtu.be/IzUJap3Wcqw Third, the quick clip. I don't use it. If I had to buy this again I would just get the cheaper version without the quick clip. Normally the camera is screwed onto a hard plastic plate on the strap. The quick clip clips camera onto the plate, rather than being screwed onto it. I understand the point of the quick clip is to be able to get the GoPro off of your head without taking the whole strap off. I have not used this device because it doesn't look very secure. I would rather take the band off my head since it only takes a second to get it back on. The clip really freaks me out. I'm curious to see if anyone else has had good experience with this thing. Lastly, couple of tips: 1: After your GoPro is properly screwed onto the plate on the strap, you can still pivot it to point up or down to get the best filming angle (and then tighten the screw further if there's any slack). I didn't get this right the first time I took it snorkeling with me so I ended up filming ABOVE the water instead of all the amazing fish I saw under the surface. 2: If you're filming a long event and can't leave the camera running on your head the whole time because battery power you can obviously get a spare battery. However, if you're running a race and can't finish within time one battery allows, set your on/off to recording, turn your beep to 100% volume and get familiar with the beep pattern on the GoPro. This will allow you to operate your GoPro without looking at the control display and know you're actually filming. Alternatively, you could use the remote or your cellphone, but the wifi would just suck more power out of your camera. Good luck and have fun!

Works Perfectly.

Ok, so I might look a bit strange wearing the "Headstrap Mount" attached to my noggin, while kayaking. Not so much, though, when I "Quick Clip" it to the back of a ball cap. But, either way it feels comfortable and secure. And, usually, I'm the only one on the water creating cinematography. Wow! It's totally intuitive and I've found the fit of the 'GoPro Headstrap' to be very comfortable thanks to the inch and a half wide straps, fully adjustable and secure. It does the job providing hands free mobility and no more having to stop paddling in order to take a photograph. Results are similar when using the "Quick Clip".

Very good strap! but if u wear it on your ...

Very good strap! but if u wear it on your head it can fell from it, better wear it on a hat or a cap. this thing does not feel secure on ur head because of hair. it also came with a thumbscrew.

Great for "non-extreme" filming but that's fine by me.

Great Value and use it for my many vacations! If you don't mind having a "generic" product without the GoPro logo, this is definitely the way to go. I can't tell a difference between the two other than that. I wouldn't recommend this product if you are doing anything with a lot of movement (skateboarding, snowboarding, skydiving, cliff diving etc.). This headstrap will most likely fall off and is better for "non-extreme" filming (unfortunately, like the kind I do). If not, I would recommended to use the body strap since it'll be more secure.

Good for adult and child

I bought this for my husband to use but my 6 year old actually uses it more. The straps adjust for both head sizes very easily. It stays on my son’s head as he is running all around the playground. We have not used the hat clip yet, but I’ve been very impressed with the head strap and attachment.

Fun and comfortable accessory

Perfect for first person views. I got this in a bundle and wondered what the heck I would do with it. I have had some fun with it while looking totally insane out in public but it's been fun. Obviously since it is attached to your head expect the footage to be a little dicey, you just have to be very aware of where your head is pointed and how level you are keeping your head. But overall a fun and VERY comfortable accessory.

but this has been the best by far

I thought this would be a mediocre quality head strap, but after two paintball outings I can say it has exceeded all my expectations. I have used several accessories for my GoPro, but this has been the best by far. It provides a very good point of view, is grippy, and on the cheaper side. So far nothing has faded or gotten damaged, despite getting shot in the headstrap with paintballs at close range and two washes in hot water. I will update in the near future if anything changes.

great

I use the quick clip much more than the headstrap. Both work as advertised, but I think they should play up the quick clip more. It works for attaching the camera to your hat like they say, but it is also great for attaching it to any kind of webbing or sternum strap, works as a stand on a stable platform, and is also a functional handle that helps to keep your hand out of the frame. The headstrap works as a headstrap, but with a little disassembly and the addition of some webbing can be modified to work as a chest harness or can be strapped to all kinds of things. Too bad they don't sell these parts separately. I'd buy extras of the headstrap center piece and the quick clip.

This is the perfect accessory for my go pro

This is the perfect accessory for my go pro. It fit my head perfectly and is truly awesome. If you want a hands free shot this it the thing to buy! It was absolutely one of the best choices i have made towards my go pro. I can actually do things now while i record something. The easiest way to record is hands free and everything i see, the camera will see. The camera will definitely be happy on this stand. It is a bit heavy, but that is to be expected since it is a go pro. The go pro fits perfectly and the head strap makes you look a little silly. But it is absolutely perfect, I am very happy with it! Buy it! It is totally worth it and you will have a whole new go pro experience with this new accessory. AND IT WAS CHEAP AND ACTUALLY BY GO PRO. This was a real brand and 100% worth buying. Good luck! Buy the product!
