GoPro Hero 5 Kit My First Large Investment & Unboxing - D00k13 Digest #85
What Up My Steemians this is my first real investment and unboxing, this really isn't my forte but here we go anyways. I purchased a Gopro Hero 5 with a few extras, I really like the thing over all and it is super easy to use. I may try do a review on it later but this is more just a unboxing. I have minimal experience with this type of thing, was not sure what I wanted for my skill set and the wide array of projects I had in mind.
First of all, was the whale watching tour we went on yesterday so it needed some amount of water proofing and decent video. I wanted video stabilization and something easy to pack around, seemed like an action cam was nearly the only option. The Hero 5 fit all the requirements and will work for other trips of this getting out and about nature.
Secondly, compared to the others it seemed to have better audio which for me is a seller, I talk on my vlogs and it needs to be clear. Also with auto audio mode detection it should be able to cut some of the wind noise vs the ones in a case always sounding muffled.
Third was recording time & quality, I want to at least record in 1080 and be able to record slow-mo footage. I have no idea where to start but I know 120 fps at 1080 has something to do with it. Also it can use upto 128 GB memory card which I know filling will not be a problem with the quick battery swaps. 3 batteries lasting 4ish hours total run time while playing with mobile app, that would be an entire 128GB card at 4k video if I so choose. Super wide angle for those crazy view shots, I am starting to understand how you guys do it.
Fourth Cost, all though it is top shelf for action cams the price was right. Same cost for the kit as for just a camera with no extras. I know it was still expensive but after adding up the parts that it came with compared to a similar the price difference was marginal.
Let me know your thoughts in the comments below!?!?
- Decent Choice? How bad did I fail the unboxing?
- Does it have a timer for pictures?

@d00k13 that's a nice little setup there man! I am sure you will use it well.
Thanks @the-puppet-patch it took a little convincing of the fiancé but it will be my one present this year! I plan to use it the best of my ability hopefully developing more skills as I go.

Thanks dude glad to know you approve of my choice! I hope in the future with the GoPro any unboxings I do will be a little more interesting 👌

All right! time for some X-treme action moves! like triple back flip from a 3rd floor into a pool full of piranhas, fighting them, becoming the piranha Alfa, teaching'em to be veggies and then exit the pool with a double front flip!
Oh man I'd love to live in a video game... xD
LMFAO I wish I could do half of that, so far I have been on a whale watching tour boat. I want to get the body harness and record the fast carts in parksvillie plus have a head strap for my hikes so more action but maybe not so crazy 😜 video game would be nice, just modify the rules of physics around you like a magician 🤙

Thanks man it is pretty awesome to have a dedicated camera now, does the gopro have a timer? Went out for a whale watching tour yesterday, we will have to wait and see how that turned out 🤞
