    Now now ive had all the gopros and still do. But i like to vlog with them as well.. and it wasnt until i recorded in my barn that the gopro has some serious issues with lighting and black lines running up through the video. This was caused by the shutter speed and recording fps. I got this camera hoping that itll change and it did now with full control of shutter speed and fps i can eliminated that issue!

    Only bad thing about is that there is no flash so we had to buy a bulky flash for it. It’s pretty much a day time camera. It’s useless at night, not the greatest quality for night use.

    Pretty good for your first vlog camera. The battery does not last long at all. You’ll need a backup battery for sure but that won’t last that long either. If you need something long lasting, I would consider another camera.
