Camera?
Is it worth it to bring a camera to any big games. If so what camera should I get and what type of mount.

If you want cheap, those keychain cameras are about 7 bucks and the quality is excellent. The one mounted on my barrel is a keychain. The reason the other is foggy is because it is looking through my goggles.

Lots of options out there.
If you do choose to go with the R7 Replay XD 1080 unit you, as someone mentioned really long video's, you can tap the record button while it's recording and it'll create a file change so it'll stop there, and start a new file so if something insane just happens and you want to find it easily. Just tap record really quick, the camera will vibrate but the red record light will stay on, and that means it created a transfer to a new file, and you'll easily be able to find that memorable event.
Plus it comes with the R7 mount, and various standard sticky mounts.

Whatever route you go with, I recommend mounting it to your mask instead of your marker. Marker footage will require tons of editing because of the angles and how often the marker is pointed at the ground. Speaking from firsthand experience on this one.

I use EPIC cameras... They are great high quality cameras and are small and light weight. I personally use the Carbon 1080P. I like brining cams to big games because you can show what you do and if you have a team show what you as a team do. Idk i just like them

Wow, im impressed by the keychain cameras. Not great, but a good option for the price.
I use a midland xtc300. Films at 1080p/30fps or 720p/fps, very good quality. You can zoom in a still maintain great quality, which is awesome for editing. 4-5hrs of recording on one charge and the battery is a swappable li-ion, so you can carry multiples around for non-stop recording. It takes micro sdcards up to 32gb, which is about 16hrs of footage at 1080p.
Very little fisheye, which is something I dislike about the gopros, and they mount well to goggles. They also come with all the mounting options already, so you don't get nickle and dimed to death buying add-ons. Another strong feature, which it shares with the contour cams, is the large slide button on/off. You never have to worry about pressing a little button with gloves on or whether or not the device is actually on. Slide the big switch forward and it turns on and starts recording automatically, which is a big deal in paintball.
gl choosing. I suggest watching the TheBearsPaintball channel on youtube. Those guys have the most entertaining scenario footage, and the editing between players is very cool. More players posting footage is great, I think everyone should have helmet cams.
