    Bought with the dive case for extra protection when mountain biking. It is noticeably heavier than my hero 3 black but it has a lot more features than the previous model. So far it is a pretty good camera. Kind of nervous to run it without the case to protect it in case of a fall. Would really appreciate a more durable camera without spending extra money on top of the already expensive product.

    This camera looks and feels great, so once I received my GoPro Hero 5 I started recording. Upon reviewing the footage that looked fantastic but had a loud hissing noise throughout the whole thing (even dropped it in water and still had the hissing noise. After three days of going back and forth with GoPro support they finally decided I had a fault with the camera and then prompted for proof of purchase. Watched a few videos of people on YouTube that had to return their device a couple of times until they had a fully working go pro. Long story short if you want to have a high chance to buy a faulty device go with this or wait until they actually fix their product. A lot of people are complaining about the hero 5 and GoPro support.

    This has a good video recording but the only thing i don't like is that you can't zoom in to the objects you're taking.
