Hero 3/3+

Lurch

Administrator
Afternoon folks.

Quite confused that a few places are selling 3 and 3+ for the same price.

Also heard some gripes about the 3+ too.

Dunno which way to go on this! Any suggestions and experiences welcome.

Take it it's still worthwhile buying the basic pack and buying the non-genuine mounting accessories?

Cheers all!
 
They fixed the lens sharpness issues ages ago on the 3+ if that's the issue you are referring to.

A new range of GoPro's are due out soon hence the recent price drop. A GoPro 3+ silver is a great bargain at the moment.
 
Thinking about Black.

Need to shop round for a good deal or discount in whichever I go for.
 
Definitely skip the 3 and get the 3+ Black :) It's an amazing little camera with incredible video quality.
Although the hero 4 will be out soon it's still a good deal.
As for accessories I'm not sure why you would buy non genuine mounts etc.
From what I can tell they are built much stronger than 3rd party ones and when you've invested that much money into a camera why risk destroying it just to save a few bucks?
 
Cheers all, and fair point about the mounts.

Weird how the 3 and 3+ are the same price at the moment though, although Madison don't seem to have much in stock in the way of the black edition...
 
There is no risk of breaking anything, even when using cheap mounts, if you properly tether your camera which is something you should always do no matter what mounts you use.

I have also seen more gopros fly in the road using the standard mounting kit than other brands, the original mounts are not that great or durable.
 
i would wait a little while longer black friday is coming up and with the gopro hero 4 coming out soonish the hero3+ will be hella cheap. i picked up a silver 3+ for $250 at best buy being of aug came with a 16gb sd card and a $50 gift card.
