As folks are saying, you'll need an SD micro memory card. You'll want a Class 10 card if you're planning on shooting HD video (Class 10 means that it can record at 10Mbs per second. You can get away with Class 6 or better, but it's not a huge price difference.) The size will depend on what you plan on doing with the camera. Static photos will generally be about 5.5 MB (100 MB to a GB), a 60 second video shot at 720dpi 60 frames a second, will run about 108MB. The battery will run about 2 hours (provided wifi is off), so figure about 12GB for a non-stop video (It's a bit more because of the limitations of how the camera can write to the card.) For what it's worth, I picked up a 32GB card for mine. There are a few other things you probably want to consider (tripod mount with a gorillapod, extra batteries, USB auto charging port, etc.) but you didn't ask about those.

Micro SD card,, class 10 for best video, and the bigger the better to record HD.

The main reason why I was remotely interested in the new Hero 3s was because it advertised a mic input. Yes, there's a mic input, but you have to BUY a special cable. Also, some photos show it with the LCD screen, that too is extra at about $75 bucks. Also, I would weigh if you want the SILVER or BLACK. Because the BLACK shots in more video and audio formats, which for me as a videographer, is huge issue.

You will have to get a memory card. It includes a charger that has a USB end that you can plug into any universal charger. On the new GoPro it is the small memory card also not the big one so its a micro. I made that mistake when I purchased it. Hope that helps

I wasn't surprised that it didn't come with a memory card but the fact that it didn't come with an AC adapter was shocking and annoying.

As these are all used cameras now it depends on what the seller provides. I bought mine with a battery and charger, but had to purchase a memory card separately.

Some things come with the camera. There is a USB cable that connects you to a computer, but you'll have to buy a data storage card separately. The camera will work without one though.

The battery, a strap and a standard plug-in charger comes with this camera. Also the owners manual with details on how to upload photos to computer or social websites. This is a fantastic camera! Good luck!

The camera, a battery, a battery charger, a mini usb/usb cable and I think there was a wrist sling. You'll need to buy the memory card. (I went with a 32 gig card.) Once you get this, you just charge up the battery and put in the memory card and you are ready to go!

No memory card included, just the camera. I don't have the camera anymore but I think it has small amount of internal memory too.

New this camera includes a charger and it is special for the batteries it uses. You can find a charger on e bay for about 20 bucks with a battery if you are buying used and do not have one

Comes with the standard items you get with a new point a shoot, charging cable ;) You will need to get a microsd card on your own. I've got a class 10 32GB microsd, works well.

The camera, user manual, A/C and USB charging cable and adapter, one battery and wrist strap are in the box.I would recommend buying a 32 Gig SD card and carrying case. If you are going on a long trip, it may also be worth buying an extra battery.

Thanks. I'm currently enjoying the camera already. I want a 4 or more gig card for video. I'm also accumulating the compulsory accessories, batteries, chargers, screen protectors, etc .
