Go PRO

I'm looking into buying a Go Pro. I just want to know if the zoom is good. How long can you film with it non stop. Wondering if I would be able to record a concert with it. Thanks

No zoom on GoPro.

Their FAQs are good

To get it to film continuously you have to set it up that way. It is pretty easy, just go through the menu and read the cheat sheet they give you with the camera. I have mine so all I do is turn it on and it starts filming right away.

No zoom, as others have mentioned. With a battery bacpac you can get 4 or 5 hours of hi-def footage.

I personally don't think its good for recording concerts, the audio quality may not be what you're looking for. I use mine with the waterproof case almost all the time and don't get a very good audio recording out of it. The non-waterproof case may give you a better audio quality but I haven't tried myself. I get about 2-3 hours of high def video on a 32gb memory card.
Bottom line, I highly recommend GoPro. I use it on my kayak, Motorcycle,....Get creative.

cheers
