gopro hero plus lcd waterproof suppliers

***Bottom Line (for me)*** The GoPro HERO+ LCD model is designed primarily for usages where audio matters very little if at all. There are other models, even those less expensive options like the Hero 4 Session, that provide better audio while still maintaining some level of underwater use, albeit without the LCD. As I don"t care about the LCD, the Hero 4 Session worked great for me.

No, I should have bought a model with decent microphones and battery life. I didn"t need the touchscreen LCD or the waterproof case. I needed something that shoots decent video of my sons when they"re riding their bikes, or at the science fair, or whatever. Something a step up from the iPhone camera.

I have always been interested in a GoPro camera, but the darn things are just so expensive. I saw the GoPro Hero plus on eBay just before we went on a Caribbean vacation. We had plans to go snorkeling and I wanted a camera to take underwater pictures. Usually we use the waterproof 35mm disposable cameras, but the pictures never turn out. I did a little research on the camera. For a beginner camera, it had all the features I would need to take pictures, video, and then be able to review the footage using my phone. I picked up the camera for a song, and bought 2 of 64GB memory cards. Once I got it, I took some still shots and some video. I had to play around with the camera a bit to understand all if its functions. I downloaded the GoPro app to my phone and linked to the Hero Plus to see the pics and video. The quality was very good. We bought an extendable selfie-stick to put the camera on, and we were set for vacation. While on vacation we went snorkeling several times. I got lots of video footage. The camera worked well underwater. The lighting was great and the colors show with vibrance. I took many still shots that turned out great. I am very happy with the camera and look forward to using it more when we off-road and ride our ATVs.

Released in June of 2015, the GoPro Hero+ LCD is covered by a grey waterproof casing with the logos under the lens. The GoPro Hero+ has a latch on top of the device that removes the casing, and allows access to the touchscreen. This camera also has a built in mount and three buttons that allow the user to control the camera without opening the casing. The Hero+ LCD edition came with new additions to the GoPro line such as: built in Bluetooth, WiFi, LCD display, and a touchscreen. The Bluetooth allows the user to use one"s phone or tablet as a remote to have full control over the camera"s functions. After capturing the video or photo, WiFi allows the users to upload their work or art to social media. Please be aware that these capabilities can only be used if the GoPro App is downloaded onto a smartphone or tablet.

Compatible: •This USB cable is compatible with the following GoPro Digital Camera Models: GoPro Hero+ (CHDHC-101), GoPro Hero+ LCD (CHDHB-101), GoPro Hero4 Session (CHDHB-100). Please Note: This USB cable IS NOT compatible with the GoPro Hero4 Black or GoPro Hero4 Silver.

GoPro’s Hero action cameras are aimed squarely at the entry-level, leaving the more fully-featured Hero4 for serious film-makers. The Hero is still well-equipped and more than capable of capturing quality footage though. There are now three cameras in the Hero range: the GoPro Hero (around £94), GoPro Hero+ (around £169) and GoPro Hero+ LCD (around £199). The Hero+ gains Wi-Fi for pairing with an iOS and Android companion app, but the Hero+ LCD gets an LCD display too.

This gives you a live view for framing your video and photos, and lets you play back recorded clips, but also functions as a touchscreen. The LCD gives you a quick and easy way to adjust settings, as well as providing in-camera trimming so you can cut down videos to easily sharable sizes.

The camera will feel familiar to GoPro users, with the same typical three-button design. The power button is on the front, the shutter button on the top and a settings button the side. The side button is also used for “HiLight” favourites tagging when recording video, making it simple to mark important parts of your footage to make editing easier. You can also mark HiLights when you’re watching back video on the LCD display.

One of the biggest differences from the Hero4 is the non-removable waterproof case. Before the entry-level Hero arrived, every GoPro had a separate, detachable waterproof housing. With the Hero+ LCD, the casing is permanently fixed in place, which you might find a little unwieldy if you plan on using handheld gimbals designed for caseless action cameras.

The permanent case also increases the overall size, even when you’re not planning any aquatic escapades, but when you do get wet, the Hero+ LCD can survive being submerged to depths of 40m. The case is otherwise very rugged and will stand up to a good few knocks. As a whole, the Hero+ LCD weighs 127g - lighter than the 152g Hero4 Black. You get the usual array of curved and flat adhesive mounts, but the Hero+ range works with all of GoPro’s existing mount range.

Various different backdoors are included for the case, including one that will allow you to still access the touchscreen, but it’s worth noting that the touch backdoor is only waterproof to 10m. A skeleton backdoor can also be used that doesn’t obstruct the microphones as much for improved sound quality, but this isn’t dust or waterproof.

The Hero+ LCD might be more of an entry-level camera, but it’s still well-specified when it comes to video resolutions. It’s capable of up to 1080p video at 60fps, which is excellent for a sub-£200 camera - many are limited to 30fps. Where the Hero+ range is lacking is when it comes to higher frame rate video, which is useful for creating slow motion footage. The similarly-priced Veho Muvi K2NPNG allows for 720p video at 120fps. You’ll have to step up to the Hero4 Black to get 240fps video from a GoPro.

The Hero+ LCD is also capable of capturing 8-megapixel still images, in addition to a burst mode that rattles off 10 frames in 2 seconds. There’s also a time lapse photo mode, with intervals between 0.5s to 60s.

Footage captured from the Hero+ LCD was very crisp, with nice and vibrant colours and decent sharpness when given outdoor lighting. Under low light there’s a reasonable amount of noise, with the auto low-light function adjusting the frame rate dynamically to match lighting conditions. The resulting 8-megapixel still images captured a surprising amount of detail.

Battery life was excellent, matching the Veho Muvi K2 NPNG, which was one of the longest lasting action cameras we’ve tested. Shooting 1080p video at 30fps, the Hero+ LCD managed a fantastic 2 hours 27 minutes - significantly higher than the GoPro Hero4 Black. The battery isn’t removable, however, so there’s no swapping out batteries while you’re in the field.

As an entry-level GoPro, the Hero+ LCD is an excellent choice provided you don’t need the more advanced functionality of the full-blown Hero4. With not much money separating the Hero+ LCD and regular Hero+, the added convenience of a touchscreen display is definitely worth paying extra for.

The Muvi K2 NPNG has more included accessories (and support for GoPro mounts) but the Hero+ LCD has better image quality and a superior companion app. In any case, with both you’re getting very capable action cameras for not a lot of money.

The HD HERO also offered an expansion port on the camera"s rear panel, branded the HERO Bus. Optional accessories included the LCD Bakpac, which offered a small monitor that displayed and played back video, and the Battery Bakpac, which doubled the battery life of the camera.

The HERO3+ camera models claim dramatically improved low light performance and have a waterproof enclosure which is 20% lighter and 15% smaller than the HERO3"s, according to the GoPro website. The HERO3+ camera housing is 20% smaller than the HERO3. The cameras are claimed to have improved image sharpness (close focus down to 7" vs about 3 ft on the HERO3, at the expense of distant focus which is slightly less sharp

In September 2014, GoPro released an entry level camera named simply "HERO", priced at $130, alongside the HERO4 Black and HERO4 Silver. It is built into a waterproof housing, unlike the HERO4 line.

The GoPro HERO (2014) can capture 5mp still images and has a 5fps burst option. It is able to record 1080P at 30 or 25fps and 720P at 60 or 50fps on to a MicroSD card up to 32GB. It has an LCD non touch display on the front and is waterproof down to 40m.

In June 2015, the company started to sell the GoPro HERO+LCD, which provides video recording at 1080p at 60 fps and 8 megapixel photos. The HERO+LCD is also built into a waterproof housing.

The HERO8 Black largely introduced several new functions into the camera. Physically, the HERO8 Black now incorporates the connecting prongs that are used to connect accessories, directly onto the camera. Originally, the cameras would only be able to access the prongs if the cameras utilised either the frames (for cameras HERO5 to HERO7) or the protective cases for HERO4 and before. Moreover, the GoPro logo moved under the LCD screen to make way for extra microphones. More additions to the camera most notably were part of the software aspects of the camera. These included an option to switch between various settings presets, including standard, activity, cinematic and action shots and adjusting on-screen shortcuts of the user interface. Most notably as part of software, was the introduction of the night-lapse video, which similar to the time-lapse video mode, automatically stitches the frames captured by the camera at set intervals, however with the addition of improved low-light performance.

The HERO8 Black also attempts to address vloggers who may wish to use the GoPro in such a manner. As such, GoPro has also introduced an external accessory known as the "Media Mod" which includes a USB Type-C port for supplying power to external microphones and accessories, a micro-HDMI port and a 3.5mm microphone port. Moreover, the accessory includes a mount to connect either external microphones, LEDs or an LCD screen.

GoPro has introduced a new entry-level action camera, the HERO+ with Wi-Fi. In terms of specification, this model sits above the HERO, but below the recently launched HERO+ LCD. The HERO+ with Wi-Fi does not feature an LCD, but does offer wireless connectivity for use with the mobile app.

The GoPro HERO+ is waterproof and compatible with GoPro"s various mounts and accessories. The model can capture 8MP still images, and record footage at 1080/60p and 720/60p resolutions. Both "Burst" and "Time Lapse" capture modes are supported. Other features include Bluetooth, QuikCapture for powering the camera on and recording with a single button press, SuperView wide-angle FOV, HiLight Tag, AutoLow Light mode, and an integrated microphone.

The model is priced at $199.99 USD, which is slightly more expensive than the HERO ($129 USD) but less expensive than the HERO+ LCD ($299 USD). The model will be available starting October 4.
