GOPRO HERO UPGRADE TO 3+ BLACK
« on: June 04, 2014, 05:54:50 PM »

Hi all...

I've had my original GoPro Hero Naked for about three years and only used it a couple times for not more than 20 minutes total.

Now I plan to do more filming while riding and the original is a pain in the butt to work with, even with the LCD Backpac that I bought for it.  I even bought the WiFi Backpac and remote, but on my Hero it's not capable of streaming to my phone like the Hero 2 can do with WiFi backpac.

So I'm thinking of going all in and getting a 3+ Black.  I have all the mounts etc, so nothing changes there.  I've read about the GoPro 4 and it seems to be more into the 4K and direct streaming etc.  I've read up on the 3+ Black and it seems to do all I believe I'll ever want to do.

I've watched a few YouTube videos about the 3 Silver and the 3+ Black and the 3+ Black blows the 3 Silver out of the water pretty much all the way around.

I don't want to spend that much money, but I've found some very slightly used for in the $300 to $320 range.

What's everyone think about the 3+ Black?

I cannot believe that no one has any comments on this yet.

I thought there was a thread only about Go Pro stuff, but I could not find it.

If someone knows the thread I'm talking about, please post a link for me.

Thanks.

Thanks...  I'll check it out this weekend.

I just bought a Gopro 3+ Black addition off eBay.  I have the original Hero 1080P camera that's I'll probably be selling now with lots of options added, LCD Backpac, two batteries, and the WiFi Backpac and remote.

I found out that the Hero does not stream to my phone with the WiFi Backpac like it does when added to the Hero 2.  But none the less, it still lets one start, stop, change setting etc, so still a good option to have.

Thanks again and have a great weekend.
