GoPro surf camera information and updates

Hi All –

First of all, I’m a noobie <Moderator: Yeah that's obvious cause your first post is full of spam> to this forum, but wanted to pass along some free information I’ve put together for getting the most out of GoPro cameras for surfing.

First, GoPro's long-awaited firmware update for the Hero Wide line of cameras is now available. This free download will double the memory capacity of the camera (to accommodate a 4GB high capacity SD card) and improve image quality in certain lighting situations. This update is ONLY for GoPro Hero 5 Wide Angle cameras - not older 3 Series or Standard lens models.

- For firmware upgrade instructions and download link click <Moderator: Spam URL Removed :bang: >

Second, I’ve also posted new and enhanced GoPro user resources to our Website.

- For our Unofficial GoPro Tip Sheet click <Moderator: Spam URL Removed :bang: >

Finally, GoPro’s instructions usually don’t have any images to let you know what those little icons are on the LED readout, so we’ve added them.

- For our enhanced version of the official GoPro Instructions (with handy images of those little icons), click <Moderator: Spam URL Removed :bang: >
Feel free to post this information to other forums or sections. And if you find it of use, please consider clicking the SHARE links on our site <Moderator: Spam URL Removed :bang: > to link this information to your social networking pages.

Take care,

Ice Planter

well.... I note the new HD version is now taking the UK by storm.... I'd rather spend the £300 odd quid on a new board or wetsuit...but hey...some people just want all the latest gadgets...i might consider the standard one some day is its half the price and the pic seems good to me... but we're all HD obsessed now!
