GoPro Hero3 Black Edition – UK Footage

Last week Jonny Ashelford from Rose Bikes UK was lucky enough to get his hands of one of the first Go Pro 3 Black’s in the UK.  Enjoy this footage showing what you can put together with this new camera.

“I was lucky enough to get my hands on a GoPro 3Black for one day this week so Rose Bikes riders Katy Curd and Adam Williams met up with me at Van Road pump tracks. I wanted to show the true quality of the new GoPro so I haven’t colour corrected or adjusted any exposure settings in Final Cut, it is all straight out of the camera. I’m sure if I had had longer with the camera I would have produced something a lot better, but I’m still impressed with the frame rates and overall quality improvements. The MicroSD card is a bit of a faff, I don’t have any of those, and a whole bunch of big SDHC cards, so will have to go and buy new ones, and if you want to run a spare battery, be carful not to rip off the tape tab as it suddenly becomes a massive pain to get it out. I was disappointed that the iPhone app didn’t work either, it has to get upgraded on the 14th December before it works with the GoPro3.

On the plus side, simple improvements like the addition of the power symbol and red dot for the power and record buttons don’t let you forget which is which, and the built in WiFi will be great once the app is up to speed.”
