Review: I bought the GoPro Wide a few years ago from Amazon. I decided to spend $ 300. 00 for this upgrade. The image quality is better than the original, but not nearly the quality of video GoPro advertises on its website. “What software do you use?? Not intended to do!” The HD is not as compatible with Windows software as the original. The file format is it saved as states. mp4 file. This is untrue. Even the best software can have problems to convert this video to see a file of your “Windows” computer. They have a very hard time of publication of this. . . unless you want the POS Apple Quick Time Pro. . you must purchase separately. I am only giving this negative reviews (although totally true) Because there is not a simple e-mail GoPro addresed. “Where is the option to change the orientation of the camera on his head to right side up”. Check your online manual. They “STATE” to go to their side, if this is a problem. There is no solution on their site and they would not to the question by e-mail. I only found through a Google search that this feature is not available. For those of you, the state you were in contact with customer support. Enter a phone number! Since its Web-based site has none. . . and apparently they are on what they selectively respond to complaints! (Via E-Mail) Google this camera first and you will find hundreds of consumers, unable to see the negative, then something more like their recorded videos are on their computers. . . Examples are skydiving, car racing, RC Cars, Motocross, Mountain Biking newsgroups, etc. you will find that all I have to say is true! Rating: 1 / 5

Review: We bought this camera in hopes of using it for sports and home video. This video is really nice. I love the wide angle shots. It is small and simple. I was really sad, it zurückzugeben.Wir they returned, however, because of the sound, even w / o the waterproof cover is not good. Very tinny sounding. She could hear what was said, but it was poor quality. I was also concerned that the lens because it is a wide, protrudes from the housing, making it easier to scratch or not Fingerabdruck.Diese relates to all customers, but only one will fyi.

Review: I bought this camera to off-road use single-track rides and adventure racing. It worked once on my bike commute, but not worked since then. Customer service has proposed battery types without any difference in performance. It just will not stay on in a rough environment. If you hang this camera to your warranty and purchase documents you can not buy it to send back. I have encountered other people on off-road trips that have similar concerns. Amazon is not to my e-mails asking for support for a return to react and go-Pro consists of documentation. Perhaps my experience is unique, but depend on your purchase documents anyway.

Review: This camera makes a very good job for its size and price. You can do a lot more money on an HD camera, but no one gives you the bang for the buck. The roll cage mount sold by Hero sucks. If you are looking for a big one for your HD Hero Mount see [. . . ]. The mount of Hero sold the old down-side to this product because it is so plastic and horribe vibration when recording video.
