If you're reading this, Santa, I L-O-V-E my new GoPro!
This thing is probably the coolest piece of technology I now own and I can't wait for the water to warm up to try this baby out in the oceans and lakes around me. Due to finals and the extra stress that comes with it, as soon as I came home I developed a cold and haven't been able to go hiking or do anything remotely fun outside with my new camera. But alas! today was the first day I've felt better and got to roam around to take some pictures. (other than the ones I took on the couch with my cat. I've refrained from posting those.)
I wanted this camera for my upcoming trip to South Africa to document and film all the crazy awesome things I'll be witnessing while I'm there. So I figured, why not get it early and play around with it for a few months before I go? smartest. idea. ever.
My specific model is the latest, the GoPro Hero 3 Black Edition. It comes with a wireless remote as well and a bunch of little mounts, stickers, and a few cables to connect to computers and TVs. It already comes in the housing which was super awesome because other cameras I was looking at before this guy were about $600 and didn't including the waterproof housing! (an extra 200 bucks). I thought that was baloney and looked more into the GoPro and I'm so glad I did!
What's also awesome about the GoPro is that you can download the app on your smartphone and use it as a viewfinder or remote control. Then from there, you can save the photos to your phone and create a new album just of the photos you've taken. Pretty stinkin' sick.
"I love [taking pictures with] it. It is so choice, if you have the means, I highly recommend you pick one up."
more photos will be coming shortly! If you have any questions about it, ask away!
xo, Ren
