Any good GoPro alternatives out there?

Yes, I am a poor person, laugh if you want. I am looking for a cheaper alternative to the GoPro. I have found many online, but I would like to hear some reviews of what everyone is actually using. Has anyone come across any that are decent?

I bought an Intova super sport II. Made for diving, but takes good above water stills and video.

What about the basic GoPro Hero? Specs look pretty decent, lacks a few features compared to the higher end GoPros but still only cost $130.

I have the Sony Action Cam (AS100v). Works just as good as far as I can tell.
ETA: Sony Action Cam vs GoPro Hero 3+ Black

I have the Sony AS100V. Great video, (Example), but the accessories and mounts are high $$ and there aren't a lot of "knock-off" mounts that work with it.
I also think that none of the cameras do a very good job at distance. In the goose video linked the furthest decoy is only 45 yards or so.
I will check out the camera Pop linked for different angle shots.

Cheaper alternative is buy a waterproof case for your phone. Life proof has all kinds of mounts and mounting options for iPhone and samsungs. This is assuming when you say poor, you don't have a flip phone.
I have a DSLR that I haven't touched in months because my phone takes great photographs and video and is also the reason I've never bought a gopro. I just don't see the need anymore.
