GoPro dropped its new Hero3+ on the world today, and its already been producing some of the sickest footage the world has seen! The Hero3 was a serious upgrade from the Hero2 first introducing the ability to shoot in 4k and with built in wifi, but the 3+ is even better yet, with even more improvements upon last years model.
_20% lighter + smaller (case)
_30% more battery life
_4x faster WiFi (built-in)
_Auto Low Light feature, which automatically adjusts frame rate to maximize quality
_sharper lens
_SuperView movie mode allows you to shoot 1080p (1920 x 1080 video resolution) w/ the Ultra Wide field of view, so you can capture more of yourself and your surroundings.
There should be no reason to get mad over GoPro's launch of the Hero3+ if you have just bought the original 3. They aren't pulling an Apple like maneuver to phase out all of their previous models, and they have been true to their plan of launching a new product once a year. Plus (no pun intended) I hear if you have purchase from gopro.com in the last 30 days you should be honored in an upgrade to the "+". Since loosing my Hero2 earlier this summer in a freak tubing accident, it might be time to look into the Hero3+.
As always you can find me on Facebook, Twitter, and Google+
