Mine is an HD Hero2 but i use one of these microphones, and am happy with the results. Certainly using an external mic is a vast improvement from having to listen to constant wind noise with the internal one.

Please excuse my speed, it really was very slippery but this video will give you an idea of the audio quality.

Ive got the Hero 3 and Ive made a special cable so that i can still use the standard case with the door shut, and used a mic from amazon that im not to happy with as its crackling badly.


Might try the dogcam one, check on web theres often a 10% for dogcam.
