Wrap-Up. There’s no suspense here: the Silver is the better camera. And, in my opinion, the Session is overpriced. The Silver is a better all-around camera and is likely to be a much better fit for many users. For that matter, the HERO+ LCD or even the entry-level HERO are likely to be better fits for many users. This means the software can breathe new life into an old action camera, or make for a better value when buying a used older model in lieu of the Hero7. Any footage shot on a Hero 5 Black, Hero 5 The Silver can shoot 4K video, but it maxes out at the 15fps framerate (a standard video framerate for smooth motion is typically within the 24 to 60 fps range). For slow-motion video, it can shoot 720p120 or 480p240. You can find the full list of the available video modes below. GoPro Hero11 Battery Specs. USB Cable: USB-C.

GoPro has recently updated its lineup of actioncams with new models that include improved 4K video recording or a built-in touchscreen. But which one is right for you to capture your extreme exploits (or perhaps those of your dog)? Gizmag compares the specs and features of the Black and Silver GoPro Hero3+ and Hero4 We now have a newer version of this comparison, breaking down the Hero4 Black, Silver, Session, and Hero+LCDWhile the large "Hero3+" or "Hero4" on the front of each camera make it quite clear which generation it is from, the distinction between Black and Silver variants is somewhat more subtle. So to make it easier to distinguish in our graphics, we've put the Black cameras on the left, and the Silver on the The size and shape of GoPro cameras haven't changed much in recent years and the Hero3+ and Hero4 models have the same measurements The GoPro Hero3+ and Hero4 cameras all come with the full standard housing (pictured) which is waterproof to 40 m (131 ft) The size and shape of GoPro cameras haven't changed much in recent years. All of these actioncams have the same nude dimensions (that's when not in a protective housing) of 41 x 59 x 21/30 mm. The two depth measurements vary depending on whether the protruding lens is taken into cameras are all compatible with the same cases, and each comes with the full standard housing (pictured) which is waterproof to 40 m (131 ft), along with a Skeleton Backdoor with open sides to access the camera ports and for better audio recording. The GoPro Hero4 Silver also ships with the touchscreen-friendly Touch The new GoPro Hero4 cameras are slightly heavier than their predecessors There's not much difference in weight between the GoPro Hero3+ and Hero4 cameras There's not much difference in weight between these cameras, and you're not going to notice the extra couple of grams on the end of your surfboard. However, if you already have one of the lighter models and use it with a drone, you might need to consider whether the excess weight is going to make a difference to you before of view (FOV) All of the GoPro Hero3+ or Hero4 cameras can shoot in wide, medium or narrow modes In 35-mm-format terms, Ultra Wide comes in at approximately 15-mm equivalent, while medium is around 22-mm equivalent, and narrow equates to about 30-mm equivalent While GoPro cameras are normally known for their wide see-everything field of view, they each feature the option of shooting in medium and narrow angles too, depending on video 35-mm-format terms, the Ultra Wide option comes in at approximately 15-mm equivalent, while medium is around 22-mm equivalent, and narrow equates to about 30-mm aperture The GoPro Hero4 Black and Silver use a fixed aperture ultra-wide angle lens The GoPro Hero3+ cameras use 6 element aspherical glass lenses All of these GoPros use reasonably fast fixed aperture ultra-wide angle size The GoPro Hero4 Black and Silver have 1/ type 4:3 sensors with 4000 x 3000 pixels GoPro has not revealed what size sensor is used in the Hero 3+ Silver The new Hero4 cameras, and the Hero 3+ Black, feature 1/ type 4:3 sensors with 4,000 x 3,000 pixels. This is physically smaller than what you'll see on many other digital cameras, but it's very much the standard for actioncams (where you don't want the much bigger lenses that bigger sensors require).GoPro has not revealed what size sensor is used in the Hero 3+ Silver, but we do know that the original Hero3 Silver used a considerably smaller 1/ type recording The GoPro Hero4 Black can shoot 4K video at double the frame rate of its other 4K-capable siblings The GoPro Hero3+ is unable to shoot either 4K or video at any frame-rate 4K video recording is the big selling point of the Hero4 Black, so it's no surprise that it stands out by being able to shoot 4K video at double the frame rate of its other 4K-capable siblings, 30/25/24 fps to their 15/ fps. Thanks to a new twice-as-powerful image processor, it also beats them when it comes to shooting GoPro Hero3+ is unable to shoot either 4K or video at any recording The GoPro Hero4 Black can shoot Full HD 1080p video at frame-rates up to 120 fps All of the GoPro Hero3+ or Hero4 Black and Silver camera can shoot Full HD 1080p video at 60 fps The Hero4 Black is again, unsurprisingly, top-dog for high definition video recording. In 1080p it can shoot at frame-rates up to 120 fps. That said, all of the other cameras can still shoot Full HD 1080p footage at a more than respectable 60/50 recording The GoPro Hero4 Black can record 120 fps footage at 1080p The GoPro Hero3+ cameras can shoot 120 fps footage at 720p If you want to produce smooth slow-motion footage, you need high frame-rate video recording. While these GoPros are each capable of 120 fps recording it's not at the same resolution, only the Hero4 Black can do it in 1080p, the others are limited to means that if you are shooting a 1080p video and want to include some extreme slow-motion, you'll need to drop the resolution for that section of footage on all but the Hero4 video bitrate A higher bitrate is more important to professionals who need the best possible video quality, which again shows that this is who the Hero4 Black is targeted at. The various GoPro cameras offer differing high bitrate video recording ( from 25 Mb/s to 60 Mb/s The various GoPro cameras offer differing high bitrate video recording ( from 25 Mb/s to 60 Mb/s. A higher bitrate is more important to professionals who need the best possible video quality, again showing that this is who the Hero4 Black is targeted The mics in the Hero4 cameras are capable of delivering nearly double the dynamic range of their predecessors GoPro Her3+ or Hero4 users can attach external stereo microphones via an optional mm input All four GoPro cameras here feature built-in mono microphones. That said, the mics in the Hero4 cameras are capable of delivering nearly double the dynamic range of their predecessors. To make the most of this, though, you'll want to take your GoPro out of the standard housing or at least use the Skeleton can also attach external stereo microphones via an optional mm input, but the Hero4 Black is the only one of the bunch to feature an integrated ADC (analog-to-digital converter) making it compatible with wider a variety of professional low-sensitivity external photo resolutions The GoPro Hero4 Black and Silver can shoot 12-megapixel stills The 10-megapixel resolution of the Hero3+ Silver lags slightly behind the other cameras Because of their small sensor size, GoPro cameras are never going to make the best stills cameras. However, as the saying goes, the best camera is the one you've got with you… or in this case is quite possibly strapped to your head or following you around attached to a Hero3+ Silver's 10-megapixel resolution lags slightly behind the other cameras, which can all shoot 12 MP stills. But, realistically, this isn't going to make much photo-centric features worth noting are a Time Lapse mode which allows all of these cameras to shoot photos automatically at set time intervals from to 60 seconds. New Night Photo and Night Lapse modes also allow the Hero4 models more flexible low-light shooting rate stills Capable of shooting stills at 30 fps, the GoPro Hero4 Black and Silver should be quick enough to capture the action The GoPro Hero3+ Black shots stills at 30 fps, but the Silver is limited to 10 fps If you want to take a photograph of someone pulling off an amazing trick, you need to be able to shoot a burst of stills quickly. It's either that or keep asking them to repeat it for you to get just the right able to fire off 30 frames in a second, the GoPro Hero3+ Black and the Hero4 Black and Silver are going to give you a better chance of capturing that moment first-time than the 10 fps of the Hero3+ Only the GoPro Hero4 Black is able to shoot 4K or Superview footage The GoPro Hero3+ Silver cannot shoot Superview footage Superview is a clever GoPro video mode which is designed to capture a more immersive wide angle perspective. It does this by shooting at a 4:3 aspect ratio, using the full height of the camera's sensor, and then dynamically stretching the sides to produce a widescreen 16:9 aspect the Hero4 Black is able to shoot Superview footage at 4K (24 fps) or (30/25 fps). While the Hero4 Silver, and the Hero3+ Black (which the feature was first deployed on) can use it to shoot 1080p and 720p With the GoPro Hero4 cameras Protune can be used when shooting stills or video The GoPro Hero3+ can only use Protune when shooting video Protune allows GoPro users to shoot in a higher quality and with less compression. It also gives more control, with the ability to adjust settings including color, ISO limit, white balance, sharpness and exposure. For example, a flat, neutral color profile can be selected which makes it easier to incorporate footage into a professional workflow, and exposure value compensation can be adjusted to control selection also gives users more control over the balance between brightness and image noise, with settings ranging from ISO 400 to 6,400 for video, and 100 to 800 for stills. When Protune debuted with the GoPro Hero3+ Black last year, it could only be used for video, but on the GoPro4 cameras, it can now be used whether shooting video or LCD touchscreen The GoPro Hero4 Silver is the first and only GoPro actioncam to boast a built-in touchscreen viewfinder The optional LCD Touch BacPac is available for the other GoPro Hero3+ or Hero4 models without a LCD viewfinder The GoPro Hero4 Silver is the first and only GoPro actioncam to boast a built-in touchscreen viewfinder. Like the optional LCD Touch BacPac, which is available for the other models, this screen can be used to help frame shots or replay videos ... but without adding additional its size is limited by the physical size of the camera, the QVGA touchscreen can easily be used to navigate camera menus and adjust settings thanks to a user interface which responds to taps and connectivity The new Hero4 cameras benefit from Bluetooth connectivity in addition to the built-in Wi-Fi of the Hero3+ shooters The new Hero3+ cameras lack the Bluetooth connectivity of the Hero4 shooters The new Hero4 cameras benefit from Bluetooth connectivity in addition to the built-in Wi-Fi of the Hero3+ shooters. All of the cameras are compatible with both the GoPro App and Smart GoPro App allows you to control your camera remotely using your phone or tablet, complete with live video. The optional Smart Remote (an update to the Wi-Fi Remote which was bundled with the GoPro Hero3+ Black) features an increased battery capacity and allows you to control multiple GoPro cameras from distances of up to 180 m (600 ft).Storage media All of these GoPro actioncams use microSD memory cards These GoPros require memory cards with a Class 10 or UHS-1 rating All of these GoPro actioncams use microSD memory cards and require one with a Class 10 or UHS-1 rating. They support up to a 64 GB If you're shooting 4K 30fps video on the Hero4 Black, you'll only get 1hr 5m of shooting before you need to change batteries Taking a recording mode that all of the cameras are capable of (720p 120 fps with Wi-Fi off) the Hero4 Black should last for 1hr 50m, the Hero4 Silver 1hr 55m, the Hero3+ Black 1hr 55m and the Hero3+ Silver 2hr 20m Battery life is one of the few aspects of the GoPro cameras that users tend to complain about, and the situation doesn't look like it is going to improve with the power-hungry Hero4 cameras. If you're shooting 4K 30fps video on the Hero4 Black, you'll only get 1 hr, 5 m of shooting before you need to change batteries. With Wi-Fi on and using the GoPro app, this time it's just 50 a recording mode that all of the cameras are capable of (720p 120 fps with Wi-Fi off) the Hero4 Black should last for 1 hr 50 m, the Hero4 Silver 1 hr 55 m, the Hero3+ Black 1 hr 55 m and the Hero3+ Silver 2 hr 20 also worth noting the Hero4 cameras are not compatible with any older GoPro batteries you might have lying around, so you'll have to buy new spares. However, the new DSLR-like battery access does make it easier to change them when The top-of-the-range GoPro Hero4 Black will set you back $500 The GoPro Hero3+ cameras offer most of the features of the new model, for less money As the features and specifications suggest, there's quite a range when it comes to the cost of the GoPro cameras. The new Hero4 models are also entering the market for US$100 more than their predecessors did a year ago. It's also worth remembering that the Hero3+ Black comes with a Wi-Fi remote, while the optional Smart Remote will set you back an additional $ upAs with their predecessors, we have no doubt that the new GoPro cameras will prove to be a massive hit for the firm, despite increased competition from the likes of the Contour Roam3, the Panasonic HX-A500 and Sony's Action Cam Mini HDR-AZ1VR. But which camera is right for you will depend on what you want to do with it, and how much you want to Hero4 Black is clearly designed for professionals and, as such, offers the best video quality of any GoPro camera, along with features and modes which make it easier to incorporate into a professional workflow. Meanwhile, the Hero4 Silver could well be the best GoPro for the majority of users. If you don't need 4K 30p footage, or the pro-orientated features of the Black, you can save $100 while also gaining an LCD benefits of the new Hero4 cameras include a new user interface, the ability to mark key moments of a recording so you can locate them quicker later with a HiLight Tag button, and improved camera controls with a new dedicated button that allow you to quickly access and adjust camera the previous Hero3+ devices remain very capable actioncams. Until a week ago the Hero3+ Black, was the top of the GoPro range and, as such, still offers a solid package. The Hero3+ Silver again provides users the majority of features, with a more wallet-friendly price-tag. If you need and even more affordable GoPro and don't mind missing out on the higher-end features, the new basic GoPro Hero might also be worth a look. (Pocket-lint) - GoPro is king when it comes to action cameras. Those little silver boxes are being put to use by daredevils and extreme sports athletes in places where normal video cameras just wouldn't survive. Capable of shooting high-quality, ultra wide-angle footage, the HD Hero3+ Black Edition is considered one of the best action cameras out there. But how does it stand when put against the latest device to come from GoPro: the HD Hero4 Black has done what it does best and announced a new action camera, chock-full of new video capabilities, features, and oomph. Is the new camera better than the HD Hero3+ Black Edition? Or is it just a modest upgrade? We have put the pair through their paces to find GoPro Hero4 Black Edition offers a max resolution of 4K at 30, 35, or 24 fps with an ultra-wide viewing angle. It also allows 4K SuperView at 25 fps with an ultra-wide viewing angle. Other resolutions available range from and 1440p80 to 1080p120 and 960p120. There's even a 720p120 option included, for those of you who want to keep things footage shot with the GoPro Hero3+ Black as part of our reviewTest footage shot with the GoPro Hero4 Black as part of our previewThe GoPro HD Hero3+ Black Edition similarly offers a max resolution of 4K but at 15 fps instead. There's additional resolutions choices as well, ranging from and 1440p48 to 1080p60 and 960p100. Lastly, a 720p120 option is included. In other words - if you want the most ultra, highest-quality footage of your stunts - you should go with the GoPro HD Hero4 Black GoPro Hero4 Black Edition is capable of snapping 12MP photos at 30fps in burst mode with a fixed f/ aperture. It also has photo features like time-lapse (going from intervals of .5 seconds to 60 seconds), night photo (going from 10-second to 30-second exposure times), and night lapse (going from 10-second to 30-second exposure times with up to 60-minute intervals).Pocket-lintDanny MacAskill doing his stuff shot with the GoPro Hero4 BlackThe GoPro HD Hero3+ Black Edition also snaps photos at 12MP photos at 30fps in burst mode with a fixed f/ aperture. It includes a time-lapse feature and night-shooting modes too. You probably shouldn't consider upgrading to the latest GoPro if capturing photo stills is your main concern, as both action cameras are quite similar in this claimed the GoPro Hero4 Black Edition has an improved image quality, with a 2x more powerful processor and 2x faster video frame rates (though GoPro doesn't specify which camera it is comparing the GoPro HD Hero4 Black Edition to).The company also claimed Hero4 Black is the most advanced GoPro ever. If you trust that claims and want the brawniest GoPro action camera available, then go with the GoPro Hero4 Black Edition. Pocket-lint will report back however after we conduct a full review of GoPro's latest camera (and compare it to the GoPro HD Hero3+ Black Edition).BatteryThe GoPro Hero4 Black Edition features a rechargeable battery. GoPro hasn't elaborated on the size or expected battery life yet. The GoPro HD Hero3+ Black Edition however has a 1180mAH rechargeable lithium-ion battery that is reportedly 30 per cent more long-lasting compared to GoPro Hero3: Black Edition. Until Pocket-lint learns more though, this round can't be GoPro Hero4 Black Edition features built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, whereas the GoPro HD Hero3+ Black Edition only features built-in Wi-Fi. You should therefore choose the GoPro HD Hero4 Black Edition (if connectivity is something that's important to you), as there are more options available to not clear yet what the GoPro Hero4 Black Edition offers in terms of storage, but it does have support for microSD. The GoPro HD Hero3+ Black Edition supports up to 64GB via microSD. Pocket-lint won't be able to choose a winner for this category until we learn GoPro Hero4 Black Edition features waterproofing up to 40m, HiLight Tag (allows you to mark key moments while recording and then easily playback), automatic low light that adjusts frame rates, high-performance audio, an ultra-wide angle glass lens, and selectable FOV also something new called ProTune, and it brings manual control settings for things like colour, ISO limit, and GoPro HD Hero3+ Black Edition features waterproofing up to 40m, automatic low light mode that adjust frame rates, sharper images with less distortion, improved audio, among other things. Both cameras are similar in terms of features, though the GoPro HD Hero4 Black Edition offers a bit more (selectable FOV, HiLight Tag, etc).What's in the box?The GoPro Hero4 Black Edition box includes a camera, standard housing, skeleton backdoor, curved adhesive mount, flat adhesive mount, quick-release buckle, and a 3-way pivot GoPro HD Hero3+ Black Edition box includes a camera, standard housing, Wi-Fi remote and charging cable, quick release buckle, vertical quick release buckle, a curved adhesive mount, a flat adhesive mount, and 3-way pivot and release dateThe GoPro Hero4 Black Edition will cost £ when it releases on 5 October. That's the same price in the UK as the GoPro Hero3+ Black Edition, which released last played with the Hero 4 Black already we are mightily impressed with the new camera and can see that your money is better spent on the GoPro HD Hero4 Black Edition. Our full verdict is still out, but from what we've seen so far, we like the performance of the new camera a lot. We think you're better off buying new rather than old in this case. That said, if you already own the GoPro HD Hero3+ Black Edition and are considering upgrading, you should really think about how much you're getting for the price and how important 4k30 is to you. The GoPro Hero4 Black Edition has better video recording capabilities, connectivity, performance, and a few more features. Those bits are plenty enough to warrant an upgrade, but that also depends on your budget and whether it's worth the cost to you. Writing by Elyse Betters. Technology ciupa / Pixabay GoPro Inc (NASDAQ:GPRO)’s latest action camera Hero4 is a sweet treat for adventure junkies. The company said at its third-quarter earnings call that initial sales of Hero4 Black as well as Silver Edition have been very strong. The new actioncams have many new features such as an improved 4K video recording. Let’s compare the high-end Hero4 Black Edition with the the company’s previous flagship Hero3+ Black Edition. 1- Dimensions & weight GoPro hasn’t changed the shape and size of its cameras in the past few years. Both Hero4 and Hero3+ come with 41x59x30 mm dimensions. They both are compatible with the same cases. GoPro Hero4 Silver Edition, which has a touchscreen display, comes with the touchscreen-friendly Touch Backdoor. The Hero4 is slightly bulkier at 88g compared to 74g for the Hero3+. With housing, the weight goes up to 152g (Hero4) and 136 (Hero3+). However, the excess weight might not make much West Outperforms, Buys Undervalued Lockheed MartinOld West Investment Management's All Cap investment portfolio slumped for the year to the end of June, outperforming the S&P 500's loss of 21% and the Nasdaq's decline of 30% over the same period. Writing in the firm's first-half investor update, Joseph Boskovich, Sr. Chairman and Chief Investment Officer of Old West, notes that Read More 2- Lens aperture & sensor size All the GoPro action cameras sport the aperture ultra-wide angle lenses. Both Hero4 and Hero3+ Black use the same 1/ inch sensors with 4000 x 3000 pixels. 3- 4K video recording & HD recording Both cameras have 4K video recording capabilities. But the Hero4 stands out by shooting at double the frame rate (30 fps compared to 15 fps for Hero3+) than its predecessor. It also shoots better footage, thanks to its 50 fps frame rate. In terms of HD recording, Hero4 stands out once again. It can record at frame rates of up to 120 fps at 1080p, compared to just 60 fps for Hero3+. 4- High bitrate A higher bitrate means better video quality. Hero4 has a high bitrate ( of 60mb/s, better than 45mb/s for the Hero3+. 5- Protune Protune allows users to record higher quality videos with less compression. With Hero4, protune can be used for videos as well as photos. But you can use it to shoot only videos on Hero3+. 6- Wireless connectivity The latest Hero4 cameras offer Bluetooth as well as built-in WiFi connectivity. But its predecessor has only WiFi connectivity. Anyway, both cameras are compatible with GoPro App and Smart Remote. 7- storage All GoPro cameras use microSD cards with storage capacity of up to 64GB. They require a UHS-1 or Class 10 rating. 8- Battery Battery is one very important thing for action camera fans. In terms of battery, the Hero3+ seems to have an edge. It comes with 1180mAh battery compared to 1160mAh for Hero4. Though the difference in battery capacity appears to be small, power-hungry Hero4 saps battery much faster. 9- Hero4 vs Hero3+: price GoPro has priced its Hero4 Black Edition at $ much higher than $ for Hero3+.

About Latest Posts Wearable action video cameras and camcorders are everywhere these days, especially in action sports. These are worn in helmets for any other reason that requires footage or stills while the wearer is in motion. These action cameras need to be able to take a beating and still shoot the right kind of footage combined with the right sound. GoPro is a company that designs and manufactures such cameras, incorporating high definition audio and video to its products while still keeping them durable and of the highest quality possible. When they first started producing the Hero series, while the cameras themselves were magnificent, their users began complaining about the complexity of their usage and the difficulty they had in understanding what they had to do to learn to use them properly. GoPro resolved to correct the problem in their next series of products, while simultaneously incorporating any technological advancements. The results were the Hero 2 and Hero 3 model series. But which of the two series is the best and why? Let’s have a head-to-head Hero 2 vs Hero 3 comparison to find out. Contents1 GoPro HD Hero 22 GoPro HD Hero 33 Specifications Comparison Table4 Image Processing Comparison5 Other Features Comparison6 Conclusion: Overall Recommendation for Hero 2 vs Hero 3 GoPro HD Hero 2 The model was designed to incorporate new optics, new video and still-photo shooting modes, while still keeping compatibility with the accessories of the earlier HD Hero model. The major change occurred in the user interface design, which was made much clearer and much easier to understand making it simple for new users to utilize the product. However, it is believed that there is still a lot of requirements to improve the UI design as first time users still often complain of issues and confusion about how to use the product. Out in the market you can find the outdoor edition available here and the motorsports edition for less here. Both prices include relevant accessories in the packages. GoPro HD Hero2 Surf | Amazon The HD HERO2 Surf Edition is the most advanced GoPro camera yet. Wearable and surfboard mountable, waterproof to 197&prime (60m), capable of capturing professional full 170º wide-angle 1080p video and 11-megapixel photos at a rate of 10 photos per second.

But this did not come without a serious of drawbacks. While the user interface remained simple and clear, learning to use the new model and all its controls takes significantly longer, as there are more options available for the same features and additional new characteristics to identify and manage. Some users find this as a benefit, but most complained as multiple features left them confused as to which one to choose. Hero 3 is out on the market in three different versions. The White and Silver Editions, which are considered as the standard ones, and the Black Edition which has been redesigned to be faster and support even more features, and at this time it ranks as the top product available of its class. The White Edition is most affordable at around $ while the Silver is available at around $ For those interested in the Black one, it goes as high at around $ At these prices there are no accessories included in the packages and must be purchased separately. GoPro HERO3+ | Amazon This camera combines excellent HD video with recording options up to 1080p at 60fps and the same design as the company's other cameras so you have access to a large selection of accessories and mounts.

For those that want to choose between the HD Hero 2 and the HD Hero 3 products, the comparison is between the Hero 2 and the Silver and White editions of Hero 3 only.

In reference to other physical properties, Hero 3 is 25% lighter in weight than Hero 2 which results in a reduction of the shell depth to just 20 mm. The specifications comparison makes it clear that the Hero 3 White edition is more flexible than Hero 2 in reference to what it can support, but at the cost of lower image resolution. On the other hand the Silver edition, is easily a better model, supporting more features than the Hero 2 without the loss of resolution. Image Processing Comparison The most important feature for any camera is the quality of the images and videos it produces. This is a result of the power of the image processor that each camera incorporates. Hero 2 introduced a new processor that does a much better job of adjusting light sources of various intensities in the same photo or frame. It also renders colors more neutrally, than the earlier models. The same processor has been used for the Silver Edition of Hero 3, while the White Edition was fitted with a lower-capped one. - Swipe left/right to see more Other Features Comparison The three models in comparison have quite similar characteristics and benefits but vary in a few key details. It would be of no use to list the similarities. Instead it would be better to focus on the significant differences. These are: The Recording Times The 1,100 mAh Li-Ion battery of Hero 2 allows for hours of video recording at 720p at 30 frames per scond. On the other hand the 1,050 mAh batteries of both Hero 3 editions allow for an average of hours of recording at the same resolution. The Supported Memory Cards Hero 2 requires SDHC memory cards, while the Hero 3 models require microSD memory cards class 4 or higher (class 10 is required by both White and Silver editions for time-lapse photos). The Hero 3s also support greater capacity cards, reaching 64GB compared to the 32GB of the Hero 2, which is probably an additional reason for the greater recording times. The Photo Burst Mode This is the number of photos that each camera can take in a single second. Hero 2 and the Silver edition can take up to 10 full 11MP photos while the White Edition can take only 3 and at 5MP. The 1080p Image Rendering Hero 2 uses some sort of digital zoom to compensate for the fixed focal length of the lens. This results in 1080p video graining with visible pixelation in narrower than full wide FOVs (field of view). This pixelation and graining are not visible at the Hero 3 models. Conclusion: Overall Recommendation for Hero 2 vs Hero 3 The Hero 3 white edition was designed and produced to address the occasional novice to knowledgeable non-professional users that needed a good camera to upload their footage and photos to YouTube or Facebook, at an affordable price, but without any expectations or needs for anything more than that. The 5 Megapixels camera is more than enough, as higher resolutions do need appropriate monitors for viewing. Monitors that are not available to the everyday YouTube and Facebook user. On the other hand, Hero 2 and Hero 3 Silver Edition, were designed and produced to address more advanced users and semi-professionals that needed more video quality and more depth of image and footage to edit and produce. They are both more expensive than the White Edition and for good reason. The Silver Edition’s have more to offer. They may require special software to edit the high resolution footage to become viewable at all kinds of monitors, but people that go through such purchases, also have (or should have) the appropriate technical knowledge and expertise to know what other appliances are required to view their work. The Silver Edition goes a little further than Hero 2, incorporating better communications and more flexibility. It may take a little more browsing around the menus, to learn how to use it but it is worth the time. With the addition of a few necessary accessories, the total price may be higher but it is also well worth it for a better buy altogether.
