    Have used this for all kinds of adventure in my recent vacation. Though it looks small it's sturdy and sleek. It came with the gopro handle which made my life easy. Best thing I like about Gopro are their apps, I can quickly access my photos from the cloud and make fancy video edits.

    I bought the GoPro Hero5 for my husband for Christmas. We are expecting our first child soon and I knew he wanted something that takes better video/ pictures than his phone. He was beyond excited and has been enjoying it ever since. Next purchase might be a mount so the dog can wear it.

    I love this model of GoPro. The battery lasts a long time, the app works great with it and the clarity on produced videos and images are amazing! Be sure to get the warranty! A year later I had a malfunction and the company sent me a new one to replace it!

    Bought the camera and immediately my grandson asked his younger sister to put on your suit and get in the pool. We are going to take pictures. A week later my grandson was at a Scout Camp in the Florida Keys for a week of Scuba and the camera performed perfectly.

    Great Camera. Although costs of the accessories can easily add up. The camera does not come with any internal memory. You will need to purchase memory with camera purchase. Additionally you will need to very careful when you put battery into camera. The plastics components are really thin and will break the battery locking cover.

    Having video image stabilization, 4k video, and waterproofing on top of lower price than the older model made me decide to buy this product. Voice command was a pleasant surprise. Great action camera for video enthusiasts.

    Bought this to chronicle and share the building of my Aquaponics business. But lately have used it for so many other adventures! Fun and easy to use straight out of the box. Expected to at least include a stick for that price though. So don't forget to pick one of those up as well.

    Nothing beats a GoPro for capturing sports. I use this while mountain biking in UT. The color screen really helps however, it drains the battery super fast. Works with the GoPro clicks app that also turns your phone into a view finder for the camera. Neat stuff!

    The HERO5 is much easier to navigate to change settings or make adjustments with the touch screen menu. Also with the built in display you can better gauge what you are going to capture with the camera. Much more user friendly than my HERO4 or HERO3. Great camera and easy to use.

    Well i have to say that the Hero 5 is a nice piece of equipment to have. I am a beginner so there is a lot to learn, but as I familiarize myself with it the more I learn. My grandkids are coming home this summer and I am looking forward to utilizing it to document our journeys.

    This is my first GoPro and I love it! I take it hiking with me and plan on using it in combination with my drone to shoot some car videos for my friends shop. I can't wait to try a time lapse with it. From seeing how my friend makes them it's for sure next on my to do list!
