    Great camera, for the money. The night mode could be better as the camera needs to be very still to get a good picture.

    As avid user of the GoPro ever since the the original, I must say the hero 5 black has got to be the most advance GoPro yet

    I bought this as a gift for my partner. I'm still trying to learn how to use it. More instructions would be helpful. For example, The camera has to be removed from a frame holder to load in the microcard and battery. It took me a long while to sift through GOPRO videos on youtube to figure out how to open the frame without forcing and breaking it. Now I am still trying to figure how to make it connect to a computer. I haven't really used it yet. I went to the GoPro site and downloaded a manual for the camera. Hopefully I will be on my way to be able to show my partner how to use it!

    Has its moments. Video cuts out sometimes. Waterproof works good. Fish eye sucks have to adjust settings which is not easy. That crisp picture still not there.

    I had an older generation gopro hero so it took some getting used to the Mode/Power buttons which work the opposite from older gopros. Mode is now the power button, and Power is to start/stop.
