    I did a lot of research before purchasing the GoPro hero 5, the quality of the product is very good,and the video is amazing! The down side is the battery life is so short, and the accessories can be expensive.

    My favorite thing about this camera is that you can use the app to see what is on the camera screen so that you can make sure everything is in the frame.

    This GoPro hero 5 is amazing and features a lot more than the previous GoPros. With the multiple view settings give you more to take videos with and photos! And the huge plus is it's already waterproof as is. No additional case is needed (unless you're going deep sea diving then you'll need to buy dive housing for depth). I love this! The stability is unbelievable. I use my GoPro for Spartan races and that really put it to the test, which passed with the highest grade. I love my GoPro.

    I purchased this for a dashcam for my commercial vehicle. Along with it, I purchased a long micro sd card. The battery, at certain settings, was supposed to run up to 4 hours. On those same settings, I got just over an hour and all video was spliced. I got 8 minutes here and 7 minutes there to all add up to the hour. That evening, I put the battery on the charger to make sure I had a full charge. The next day, after charging all night, the battery was dead. I went to the GoPro website to find that several of these cameras have this glitch. They don't consider it an issue. I do. On this model, you can't charge the battery while it's in it's case (like you could on previous models) so that does you no good because you need the case for mounting! This is supposed to be an action camera but, if you have to babysit the battery so it will be ready and charged - not discharged, then it's not a true action camera. If you're lucky enough to get one without the glitch or you have time to babysit your batteries, the quality of filming and voice is great! If it hadn't been, I'd have given this 1 star and wished that it would allow me no stars. Last but not least, the GoPro company has ensured that you can't buy batteries and anything that has to do with power or programming from another company. They do updates to the system and those updates include a block out of anything non GoPro brand which means that, if you've purchased batteries of the same size and quality from a different manufacture, you're camera will be useless while that battery is in the camera. It doesn't harm the camera, it just won't power on. Since GoPro batteries and/or the camera proved to be useless to me, I considered buying different batteries to see if I had a better outcome... until I found out about this problem. Overall, worst camera I've ever owned and I returned the product.

    The Camera is awesome, great footage and pictures. I love the wide angle and narrow options. GoPro Studio froze up a lot and is very slow. Hopefully they come up with a better solution for their software.
