    they sell modified They sell modified GoPros that are rectilinear, and thusly no fisheye. And they sell them in different focal lengths. You can send a GoPro in and they can take the lens out and replace it with a new lens. Or you can buy a GoPro from them that already has the lens swapped.

    Bestbuy deal 299.00
