which gopro do you have and do you plan to use protune? If so you need the extreme. (The red and Gold card)

I have a go pro hero 3 white. I've been using the card for a few days now and it's worked perfectly. It's only a white so the card speed shouldn't make too Much difference. I'm going to be buying another one probably though.

you should be fine. The Black edition needs the faster card. How are you liking your gopro. Great little cams huh?

1. You can only shoot 960p in ultra wide angle or whatever it's called.
2. The colors aren't very vivid.
3. Even at 1080p it's a bit grainy. 720p is horrendously grainy. It's not worth going to 720p for 60fps.
4. It only supports 64GB MicroSD a cards. (I shot 30GB of video on a weekend)
5. There is no image stabilization.
6. The lag from the camera to the app makes it a bit clumsy. I end to overcompensate.
I understand this is a lower end go pro, but for the price I expected a lot more. I guess that's what you get when you move up the line.
7. Software. Windows media player can't handle the video according to go pro, so it skips and the audio gets a little funky. Not a big deal though.
8. Go pro studio is a good idea, but there is a lot of work to be done. In order to edit a few clips together, you have to convert them to .AVI!!!! Even directly from the go pro!
Oh well. I've got it. Might as well do the best I can with it.

MBPr 13"
Picked up a Late 2013 MacBook Pro Retina 13" on Friday for $750 AUD... specs image below.
The seller didn't know what he had... he had it labelled as iMac Pro asking for $900 ono. Within half an hour of posting he accepted my $750. Was given a Stat Deck informing me it wasn't stolen and it still has about 5 months warranty on it under the 12 month. (Yet in Australia they normally give at least 2 years due to our consumer laws).
Stoked with my deal.

What, Macbook air
Last week i purchased on ebay a Macbook unibody white on ebay. I was happy with that, but, this friday i went to a local office depot. I was amazed about how "cheap" the macbook air was. About 300 USD less than buying it on USA (I live on mexico). Thats why i decided to buy a Macbook air. I must say im amazed. Its so thin, and light, im just speechless.
Now i need to think what im going to do with the Macbook im going to get this week. I have 4gB of RAM and a 128GB SSD Ready for it.... Someone's interested?
