Gopro deal

I just picked up one for $330 shipped.

http://slickdeals.net/f/7112682-100-...-gopro-com?v=1

For those that don't know, Gopro will be releasing Gopro 4 at the end of this month or beginning of next.

From Ragecams.com

The GoPro Hero 4 will allow users to do just this but in even better quality then before. F-Stopper claims that the new Hero 4 will allow to record in 4K at 1080p at 120 FPS or in 720p at 240 FPS. These specs are absolutely mind blowing, even comparing it to some top of the line professional cameras. Here is the full line of the GoPro Hero 4 specs
4K (3840 × 2160) Ultra HD H.264 Encoder
1080p at 120 FPS and 720p at 240 FPS for action videography
700Mpixels/s oversampling performance
Multi-exposure HDR and WDR tone mapping
Electronic image stabilization (EIS)
Improved MCTF with advanced sharpening
Remote viewfinder, playback
Upload pictures and video to social media


If you can wait 3.5 months expect the 3+ Black to drop down to $250 on Black Friday. Usually after a release of a new version, retailers offer 40% on the predecessors as they have done in the past.

Not a bad deal at all!!!!! Also if some of you have broken GoPro's at home, give the GoPro CS line a call. Sometimes they will give you a discount towards a new model if you surrender your old and not-working camera.

I'd be interested to see on the new model if they made it so the battery lasted more than an hour. Changing batteries OTW sucks, I'd hate the drop the thing. I haven't even been bringing mine out the last few trips because of that.
