Powerful camera in a small package
1 of 1 found this helpful For the price, this is a very solid purchase, new or used. The key with GoPro is it is nigh on indestructible so even if it's used, it won't seem like it.
The GoPro is a small powerhouse putting out great video, pictures, you name it. Even at the 3+ (yes, I know the 7 exists now) the quality is impressive for most people. It may lack some of the glitzy features of the newer counterparts but it is slightly smaller and much cheaper by now.
There are a few key features to think of though before purchasing one. The battery life is quite low but that comes with the territory of the size and image quality. Most times, you'll get roughly 2 or so hours of time while it is powered on. Obviously lowering quality capture or turning off features will extend this while increasing the load on the camera will decrease this. The positive? It can be charged by USB to a wall plug (needs adapter) or to a PC or laptop so you can charge on the go (granted most cars have USB plugs now too but I cannot confirm it charges in those that link to a music "channel" in your car).
One other slight downside is that the camera requires some form of case or enclosure to mount to anything. The camera itself is smooth on all sides so you have to enclose it in the waterproof case or a different case with mounting gear attached. if you get the accessories bag, you will get a case that the camera goes in to mount with. This case is a bit large but it is 100% waterproof. The only issue with the case is when you first put the camera in it is likely to push the buttons on the camera. This only happens when you first close it and is easily fixed.
The accessories bag is a huge bonus and makes it so you can Macgyver the camera to work just about anywhere doing anything.
Pros:
+ Very small
+ Fantastic video quality
+ Extremely durable
+ Easy to charge
+ Able to be used just about anywhere
+ GoPro Mobile App
+ Low Cost (With 4+ versions ahead of this)
Cons:
- Low battery life
- Needs SD card
- Bulky case
