There is also the infinity from a German manufacturer and I think Sony is also coming out with one similar

If you're looking for a video camera that you can easily self document with, then you'll be hard pressed to find something better than a gopro.
They have a lot of mounting options to get a several views. You can mount it on your chest, head, tank, and even on your hand using a goodman handle. (Either w/ official, 3rd party, or DIY hardware)
So lots of ways to get a different POV angle during your dive.

Go pro currently makes chest mounts and head mount straps. For tank and hand mounting, it's better to make your own rather than use the adhesive pads they provide.
