Quadrotors with cameras

[TripShot]

I am in the market for a decent quadrotor with a decent camera that won't cost me $1,000 USD. If there is even one that exists. What are y'alls opinion on a decent one. Do any of y'all own one? If so how do you like it? Is it easy to maneuver? How is the battery life? These are all my biggest questions going into purchasing a quadrotor.

 

What are y'all's thoughts?

I can't give any advice on the copter but the GoPro is tried true and tested to work great with the copters and just about anything else you throw at them.  A quick google search will probably do you good as well.  There are a lot of photography websites and or forums that probably answer this question or someone in this community might have some more knowledge.

Just out of curiosity, are you looking at one with like a streaming function (say to a smart phone) or do you want it to record along an existing flight path?

Both, I have been looking at the DJI Phantom 2 Vision Plus. It;s $1200 so it may take me a bit to save up for it, but when I do I could get some really good footage.
