Video quality has been important to me; the most common reason I save/post a video is because of a dangerous driver. Getting a clear image of the licence plate isn't easy at road speed; therefore, high-quality video has a real value to me.
Here's an example from my Hero 2, this video was complimented by the local PD for its video quality:
Jeezus!!!

How close was that?
Since wide-angle lenses always make objects look further away than they really were, I'm guessing only inches.
