GoPro Wi-Fi PacPac Detachable LCD and Remote

[Expendable]

my only complaint is the two SD cards I have for my GoPro Hero 2 won't work with Hero 3 since they switched to Mini SD cards. but a price to pay for smaller equipment i guess.

Really trying to decide if I need the three or just buy the two with accessories.

Thanks for everything side by side. My main purpose would be Offroading videos obviously. I don't really think I would need a lot f photo burst, etc. the biggest selling point for me is the built in wifi but I don't want to compromise resolution either.

You're welcome.

If you can afford it, the Hero3 Black Edition is awesome. Then you would probably want the GoPro suction cup mount ($20 on GoPro website and i've seen it for $15 on Amazon at times). I bought a Hero2 Motorsports edition about 6 months ago (now wishing I would have waited) and it is truly awesome. I had been planning on buying the Wifi BacPac and Remote but I might just wait and buy a Black Edition down the road instead. not sure. but at the end of the day I don't regret buying my GoPro.

also you should take into consideration the cost difference of SD Cards versus Micro SD Cards. for High Def Photos and Videos remember you want a memory card with a Class 10 rating.

I have the android app for the gopro. It runs on the Motorola electrify. I see some people are having problems with it. I like it. It makes it much easier to change modes or the setup.
Can't wait to try it on the car.

Wow! what a difference!

I so want a Hero3 Black edition now!

Yea... The Black Edition is a MONSTER... It shooting with 1440p48... YouTube doesn't even have that quality option, the highest is 1080p.
Hero on the large high definition screen that can do 1440 will be a killer.

Sorry, Youtube supports up to 4096p

when the quality is higher than 1080p, there is an option above 1080p that says 'original'.

But yes, the Black Edition is a Monster!
