I bought this to use on a motorcycle trip to the Alps and other parts of Europe, when used with the Helmet mount and using the Android app to set the camera up when on the bike, I found it excellent, so long as you remember to switch the camera wifi off after setup, otherwise it drains the battery more quickly! Even at 720p with a frame rate of 50fps, the quality is good, stills taken using a frame grab are if good quality. When used in reasonably good lighting conditions, reviewing the output shows that frame grabs will allow you to read number plates or road signs quite well. This could be very useful if anything happens and you need to garner evidence from the camera! Very good on the time lapse usage too, although it will generate a lot of boring and highly deleteable jpegs! Like most photography though, you will capture something good at some point, either on video or still shots! The waterproof enclosure, is indeed waterproof, evidenced by the Biblical level rainstorms I rode through in France and Italy whilst still capturing video! I also bought an external mic and housing to allow use of this and when used it was good to allow a commentary on video when riding, useful for training or simply to capture your random rambling about your ride! (It is not a sealed housing however, so not used in wet weather!) All in all, very glad I paid for a quality piece of equipment that is used by many broadcasters for in vehicle or externally mounted use. Highly recommend the GoPro range, especially units with the wifi option such as the Hero 3+ Black.Read full review

I had to reset the camera to get a new password, it took me 1hour to find out how to do that and even then it didn't work with the app. I expected there to be some sort of instructions, and also some missing bits in the box. For the price I paid i feel disappointed.

A friend of mine uses a camcorder like this with a drone for river monitoring. I saw pictures and videos made with this camcorder and I was satisfied. I wrote several photogrammetry software documentations that recommended using this camcorder for photo modeling. There are lots of setting possibilities in single capturing, automtic capturing and audio/video recording. The camera has very good parameters such as high resolution of pictures (videos) and quality of the optic lens. The camcorder has a waterproof wrap which is not an optional product but is part of the base package. A wifi remote controller is also added to the base set, it has the same display as the camcorder. The camcorder can be also controlled by smartphone with a free software through wifi. The battery of che camcorder is powerful and keeps the camera working for long time. I did not compare this camcorder to others.Read full review
so i added this to my camera collection for the lightweight Factor and so i could capture video on some shoots to Maui, i will say that i am happy i purchased this ... on the trip i was able to capture great videos and it was lightweight and with the GoPro telescope stick it was awesome in getting hard to reach photos ... like those over cliffs down to the ocean .... life is good ... if you try it .. i think that you will love it...

In my opinion the 3+ black edition is the best value go pro available today when you compare to the newer models. The 4+ black edition doesnt offer much more than this but is more expensive. The features on this are more than enough and the stunning 1080p or basic 4K mode is excellent offering Chrisp images and videos! Buy one you won't be disappointed!
