One of the best things to happen to mankind!
Not joking! There may be competing cameras but this is like the iPhone of action cams. If something goes wrong, if you need a spare etc chances are that you will find it more easily than other brands. With the GP3 the quality has gone up a notch. Plus the Wifi-iPhone app compatibity is super

Big performance, small package
This camera is by far one of the best for action filming. I'm using it for underwater shots on my trip to Maui and I can't wait! Mounting to a track bike is easy. The small size means you can place it almost anywhere. The optics are far and above better than the Hero2.
Be sure to note, this camera uses MicroSD cards, not the typical SD card the Hero2 and many other cameras use. Be sure to by a quality class 10 memory card.
Buy it! You won't be disappointed!

Fantastic Camera in a super compact package.
The Hero3 Black definitely has enough extra features to justify the extra scratch over the Silver or Hero2. The difference can be best seen in low light conditions and the higher fps in 1080p. I wouldn't have opted for the wifi remote since my smartphone can do the same, but since it is included in this bundle, I will definitely put it to use when I can.
The debate over GoPro vs Contour vs ActionCam will not be won easily, but you will be getting a lot for your money with the Hero3 Black. Buy this without hesitation!

Does the Black Edition come with a helmet side mount or do you have to buy the one sold seperately?

What are the range of angles the video can shoot? I move at supersonic speed and would prefer a video angle to be at most 53 degrees.
Thank You And Good Day
I hope Brian Connor has to answer this.

Answer:
The GoPro HD Hero3 Black Edition Camera's Fields of View in degrees are as followed:Ultra Wide - 150 degrees
Medium - 127 degrees
Narrow - 90 degrees
Not exactly optimal for supersonic speeds, but you'll be moving so fast that time and space should be able to adjust itself around you.
