Any recommendations for the best type of body cam to buy?

I'd like to purchase a Video camera (GoPro or similar) that is easy to wear either on a cap or chest, but there is so much available when doing a google search that it's difficult to decide what's good and what's not.

Does anyone have any experience with this and can recommend a unit from personal experience?

Ideally, the unit I'm looking for wouldn't be too obtrusive and quick to put on when needed.

Thanks.

Hi Dhruv,
ou can try campark, horonzo, transcend etc.
Yes, I've already noted there is plenty to choose from with a google search, but that's the problem - too many choices :)

Was more hoping for recommendations from people who may have tried solutions and can recommend them from personal experience. My preference would be something worn on a Cap or similar.

Anyone else have any experience with this type of gadget?

I had one that constantly lost data. Stick with the GoPro.
Thanks, Scott, that useful to know. I always prefer to pay a bit extra if it means better reliability. Useless having a cam that will lose data.

I've got my eye on the Hero7 Black because of the 8x Slo-Mo and HyperSmooth Video Stabilization. GoPro has some great accessories too, but damn that is one expensive little unit. May have to lower my expectations and come down to earth a little ;)
That is the issue with prosumer.  Cheap for the pro, expensive for the consumer.
Thanks for sharing your personal experiences Scott. Your answer confirmed my initial thoughts to stick with a genuine GoPro unit, despite the additional cost, so much appreciated.
