GoPro HD Hero 3, which one?
Hey guys, as the title suggests, which one? I was leaning towards the black adventure pack edition mainly because of the more accessories etc. but which one would you suggest for fishing and the like?
thanks.

Black mate don't even think twice you can't go wrong! Better picture quality and better unit overall to the rest.

thanks Bash, do you recommend the LCD touch screen? I was thinking it would be easier etc to use and show me what I am filming.

Ive had my gopro for over a year now and never found the use of the lcd screen if you have a smartphone! You can control the camera threw your phone via wifi and even when recording you can see it on your phone while recording. Wifi come built into the black! Hope that helps. There's the new series if gopro its the gopro + check them out.

It doesn't need an internet connection, you connect via wifi to the camera without loosing any data. No internet needed you can even turn off 3g or 4g and it still works.

just remember the black editions love draining battery's so might be an idea to get a couple of extras.

Better option is the JVC Adixxion. Streams to your iphone or google phone or tablet, can be put on a pole and used underwater steraming a'la' iFish so you can see the underwater terrain and/or save to SD card. Also can be used on a helmet, bike etc etc. The newer v2 is available on the web from the US. LOcally only the v1 is available.

A good question for you before you go out and buy the black (awesome camera by the way), what sort of computer do you have? You need a reasonably good computer to even play footage captured in 1080p on the GoPro, let alone edit it. If your computer isnt up to spec, you might be dissapointed in not being able to use the higher resolutions that the Black provides and a silver will get the job done the lower res stuff.
There are ways to get around these problems with changing file formats etc, so it is still possible, just a bit of a stuff around. The amount of data a Black edition will record blew my mind, on 1080p wide with protune turned on I do a 4gb file in 15 minutes, I doubt any other action cam would even come close to the Black. |

Not quite;

Good call, though the GoPro case is an add on and the JVC's regular housing is good enough for fishing, sports action etc. If you want to dive - go the GoPro.
