GoPro Surf HERO Wide Camera

This little camera delivers, as announced, but you can not do. I use it a kayak (touring, not white water), but I suppose another camera for what I hope are better pictures. Once you mount the camera, you have no control over what it sees. I for one photo every 5 seconds, there may be something more than 1900 shots in this mode to take. Due to the fixed position on the kayak, the boat movement, and some shaking of the camera mount, a lot of photos not in focus. If the interesting landscape is not where the camera is pointed out, bad luck. You must also make sure that we started with the camera, and the setting you want, because there is no audible feedback nor a useful setting on the LCD. But with a little practice you should be able to select the desired setting, even if it would be very helpful to be able to give the camera a feedback. Some of my pictures are good, especially when the sun is in the correct position (bright sunshine is can be a problem). I use Picasa to move the photos on my PC, and it all works automatically. Remember that the transition close to 2000 images can take some time. Everyone says the camera eats AAA batteries, so I think change every 2-3 hours. The wide-angle lens delivers pictures with the aquarium effect at the edges, but you will probably always harvest, which already made. You need not climb too, and I advise one and strap (I use a paddle leash). Rating: 3 / 5
