Any reason to spend more for such a basic need?

What might be the biggest snag is how long it takes to boot up and be
recording from cold. Especially as you're wanting to capture
unpredictable live events.

Are there any cheap Go-Pro clones that you could wear like a head
torch and leave running. Then when something happens you switch into
camera operator mode (ie stand still, kep you head still, other than
gently following the action) and get semi reasonable footage.
