Product Description

From the Manufacturer


The Camera That Started a Movement

Born from a passion to capture your adventures from your perspective, the completely redesigned HERO3: Editions line of cameras are the most advanced GoPro cameras, ever.

Versatility

Unprecedented Durability

Shockproof and waterproof to 197' (60m), and proven in heavy surf from Tahiti to Northern California and everywhere in between, GoPro cameras can handle it thanks their highly engineered polycarbonate exoskeletal housing. Ready for action—from scuba diving to dirt track racing, and tough enough to take a spin across the asphalt or launch into space, GoPros are built to take a beating and keep filming. Replacement lens kits and housings are available, so there’s little worry while going for glory—even while diving with sharks.

Wear it. Mount it. Love it.™

GoPro mounts enable you to capture a fully immersive experience of your most exciting moments while ensuring your camera is securely attached and with you for the ride. Helmets, poles, boards, vehicles—and even yourself—whatever you’re into, there’s a GoPro camera mount that will help you get the perfect angle and POV for your most epic adventures. The HERO3 comes with a few basic mounts to get you started.

HERO3: The Most Advanced GoPro, Ever.

Camera Features
Smaller, Lighter...Better

Weighing in at a scant 2.6 ounces, the HERO3: Silver Edition is 25% lighter and 30% smaller than the HD HERO2 camera it replaces.

Professional Quality Video

The HERO3: Silver Edition captures professional quality video at 1080p-30, 720p-60, 960p-48 and WVGA-120 resolutions and frame rates.

Professional Quality Photos

The HERO3: Silver Edition captures 11MP still photos and has a burst capture rate of 10 frames per second. Time-lapse photo capture mode enables automatic photo capture at 0.5, 2, 5, 10, 30 and 60 second intervals.

Improved Sharpness, Less Distortion

The HERO3: Silver Edition's reduced-distortion aspherical lens combines with user-selectable 1080p Ultra-wide, Medium and Narrow field-of-views to deliver more perspective-capture options than are available on the White Edition camera. The totally updated flat-lens waterproof housing delivers stunning image sharpness both above and below water.

Redesigned Audio System

Understanding that sound quality is as important as image quality, GoPro engineers completely redesigned the HERO3: Silver Edition to be as adept at capturing the subtle, natural sounds of voice and music as it is at capturing the immersive sounds of sport. Also improved is GoPro's already famous wind-noise reduction, ensuring that you'll hear more of your passion, be it your engine or expletives, and less of the wind during high speed activities.

Built-in Wi-Fi

The HERO3: Silver Edition features built-in Wi-Fi and is compatible with both the Wi-Fi Remote (optional accessory) and the GoPro App. The Wi-Fi Remote (not included) is a waterproof, wearable remote control that can control up to 50 Wi-Fi-enabled GoPros at a time from a range of 600'. The HERO3: Silver Edition's built in Wi-Fi means it can also be controlled by iOS smartphones and tablets running the GoPro App. The GoPro App enables full camera control and scene preview on any compatible iOS smartphone or tablet.

Protune™—Powerful Control for Professionals

A new video mode that unlocks the camera’s full potential, Protune yields stunning image quality and cinema-caliber video for professional productions. Available on the Silver and Black Editions.

  • 35Mbps Data Rate: Provides an improved, less compressed image.
  • Neutral Color Profile: Allows for greater latitude through the color correction process.
  • Log Curve Encoding: Provides more detail in shadows and highlights.
  • Reduced Sharpening and Noise Reduction: Improves flexibility in professional workflows.
  • 24fps Frame Rates: Easily intercut GoPro content with other sources without fps conversion.

Connect. View. Control. The GoPro App

The GoPro App lets you control your GoPro camera remotely using a smartphone or tablet. Features include full control of all camera settings, live video preview to your smartphone or tablet for easy shot framing and more—Available for free on the Apple App Store™ and Google Play.

Software Updates

Get new feature updates, product enhancements and more for your HERO3 through camera software updates. Available at gopro.com/support.

Notes
  1. Extreme cold temperatures may decrease battery life. For use in these conditions it is suggested to keep camera in a warm place prior to use.
  2. To maximize HERO3 battery life when shooting longer duration activities, it is best to use camera without LCD Touch BacPac attached and make sure Wi-Fi is turned OFF.
  3. Using protune mode will increase power consumption. May vary per mode and camera edition.

You cannot find a better POV cam with wifi for $299
I switched from Contour when GoPro announced all models will come with wifi to use you iPhone or Android to make setting adjustments on the fly. Even if you cannot get your hands on the camera where you have it mounted with the free app this problem has been solved! The video footage is the same amazing qualtiy you have learned to expect from the Hero 2. THey same they have made tweaks to the Hero 3 to make it better, I am not exactly sure which at this time. If you are in the market for a helmet cam sub $299 this is the perfect choice!As a side not this thing is TINY in comparison to the Hero 2 with out the case this thing is swallowed by my girl hands. with the case it is still extremely small and compact. They hit the nail on the head with the deisgn changes. It appears smaller then the Contour with a waterproof housing (ContourRoam is smaller out of box as no housing needed due to being submersible to 3')
