Awesome underwater pics
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this for snorkeling in Hawaii. The picture quality was beyond our expectations. The wifi capability made it so we could post the pictures right away and share our experiences with our friends and family as we were taking videos and pictures! Best purchase of the year. We're having a lot of fun with it. I highly recommend this!

Great adventure camera with amazing underwater
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the camera the night before we left on vacation to the carribean, so I did not have ample time to set the camera up with my iPhone. It was pretty nerve wracking taking the photos and videos on the trip without being sure of the quality and location of the shots without the viewfinder. Much to my surprise when I got back and downloaded the photos and videos, to say I was pleased is an understatement, they are truly amazing! Super happy with the camera, and did not have to plead forgiveness from the wife, because I did not tell her until we were on the trip, in the pool that I had bought it! Even the photos in the ocean are spectacular!!

Great camera for highschool kid
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I Love it. My brother had the black and I saw no difference whatsoever. Unless, a professional, I see no reason to spend the extra money. I have used it for baseball, swimming, vacation, and I love it. great purchase.

Great for underwater footage
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this for a underwater camera and it is perfect. I was looking for the silver edition but wasn't available(not in stock) so I got the white and I am extremly happy with it. The underwater footage (video and still) is excellent, very clear and clean. I have used it in the gulf of mexico and got really good photos and video with using the dive housing and GoBudi monopod.

Best Action Cam in Market
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought my GoPro Hero3 White Edition for casual kayaking and hiking trips. I am happy to say that this is a purchase I do not regret making. You definitely get your money's worth with any of the GoPro cameras, including this one. It takes great video above and under water, and as long as you get a micro sd card with a fast writing speed, you can take great high-speed video. This product is definitely worth the money!

Very simple camera/camcorder to use
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This camera is a very easy camera to work. I picked mine up from my local best buy and took it out that afternoon. I didn't even read the manual and had no idea how to work it. I was just very anxious to take it out and play with it. I'm very impressed with how easy it was to set everything up and get recording. It took me 10 minutes to figure everything out which is nothing for a 200 dollar camera. Speaking of 200 Dollars, at that price for a gopro camera it is priced at a very good value. It packs a lot of quality for a low price. Battery life is questionable and could be improved but overall I'm still a happy customer. A full battery can last me up to 3+ hours of constant recording on 1080p which is more than what I expected. Always carry a second battery and you are good to go. Overall this camera/camcorder is beyond what i expected from it, i'm very happy with my purchase. I recommend this product to anyone.

A Vast Improvement Over Previous Models Of Gopro
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A vast improvement over previous models of go-pro cameras They have addressed the issue of low-light and now the camera is useful in all light levels and gives great results. I use this camera for aerial photography with my quad-rotor drones. I fly all my videos via wireless video and have the go-pro hero 3 record the hd video and pictures for latter review. What's not so great The wifi feature was not ready at release and has a lot issues I have tried it on android 4.1 and 4.2 jelly bean nexus 7 and it does not work. Further the WiFi will run constantly with no auto shut off and drain camera battery dead. I have already been to one spot to find out my day of flying was canceled due to the wifi draining the battery dead. After that i turned off the WiFi completely and considered super-gluing the button rofl =) Please feel free to see examples of my video here

Q: QuestionRecommended memory card size?What size memory card would you recommend for the Hero3? What size would allow for a day's worth of fun? (and not fill up after just a little while.)
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer I purchased a 64gb card from an online retailer for mine. Make sure it has a high speed rating for saving HD video. The battery only lasts about an hour and a half, but the 64gb card holds a little over 8 hours of video.

Q: QuestionIs it true that there is no view finder on go pro?
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer Yes its true (except for the hero4 currently) but you can order a touch screen lcd backpack for them (for an additional 80 bucks...and yes it comes with modified covers for the housing) to help you frame up your shots or to let you review them afterwards. Be warned though the 129.99 one is NOT compatible with the backpack lcd screen!

Q: QuestionDoes the Hero 3 come with the water proof case
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer My GoPro came with both a waterproof case and one that enables better sound recording, not being waterproof. That's the deal I got when I bought the package. You'd have to check the store you are buying from to make sure what comes with the camera. Sometimes there are deals from different stores that offer a wide variety of add-ons. Check around at different stores if you aren't sure you're getting the package you want at the first store you shop at.
