Decent product, but battery hungry, hard to read display, and hard to connect to mobile. . We use this to take video for our fitness studio. It’s a good product, but here are some issues:1. The screen is very difficult to read and could benefit from backlighting. The lack of a live display showing exactly what you are filming means that you need to connect it to your mobile device. There isa a “backpack” display you can pick up for around £70. We are now experiencing problems connecting to mobile. The password no longer seems to work. This device is incredibly power hungry. Buy extra batteries and a charger. Not great for underwater filming.

Amazing, one of the best cameras i used. Only problem is the battery life.
This is my first gopro, and i have been delighted by its versatility. I don’t intend to write about what it can do – the description does this well – but just to say that, as a first-time user but an experienced photographer, i have really appreciated the versatility of the gopro 3+ black. The wireless capability means that the remote control (included) mirrors the back display of the camera itself; perhaps even better is the capability to control it with a smartphone (using the gopro free app) which allows you to see what the camera is taking as well. I have confidence in the waterproof housing, and was impressed byt he number of mounts that come with the camera. In addition, i’ve purchased a floaty back and a telescopic pole – and doubtless there’ll be more. But this is actually a testament tot eh versatility of the gopro. I’ve not had any trouble with the reported focus problems of early models. I don’t use this for selfies – most of my videos and shots are long range – and i have been very impressed by the quality.

Best action camera on the market. Great camera, can mount almost anywhere, can sync with your phone or tablet to watch and download recorded footage or check the view and records great quality pics. Has loads of different settings and is easy to use, can’t fault it. I’ve had a few cams in the past, a contour gps and the very first gopro , this beats contour hands down (which isn’t a bad camera) and has had so many extra features added since the first gopro it’s unreal.
Package contains almost everything you might need. If you plan to share this camera (e. 2 skiers) make sure to order extra curved/flat adhesive mounts – only 1 of each is included.
Lots of reviews of this camera so this probably adds little to a prospective purchaser. I use mine for diving and aerial photography. I am continually amazed by the quality. You do need to experiment with the settings, and the gopro editing software takes some practice too, but once mastered the results are excellent.
