Question About GoPro Hero 3 - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Just got one for Xmas.

How long does the battery last?

How much footage will a 32GB card hold??

Thanks

Not sure where I saw it Yani (I think it was Spearboard), but somebody did a good amount of testing. The battery life was a good bit shorter than the 2. And less than and hour and a half on most the likely video settings that you might choose. If they added a backup battery in the 3 you could just carry extra batteries. With the 2 you have to reset the date after installing a new battery. A 32 GB will hold a lot of video, probably more than 8 hours, but it depends on your settings.
