GoPro Hero 5 Black

It has been awhile since I have bought anything from an IT Show. At the recent PC Show from 31st May to 3rd June 2018, I bought the GoPro Hero 5 Black for SGD440. There was a good package for that price because it includes:

- the GoPro Hero 5 Black

- the Shorty (Mini extension pole with tripod)

- the Casey which is a hardcover accessories case

- the Chesty, which is the performance chest mount. Must be tough for them to think of the names of their accessories.

- 32GB Extreme Sandisk Memory card

All these worth about SGD610 originally.

In addition, I bought the Dual Battery Charger. It comes with an extra battery since the GoPro already includes a battery. Having a spare battery is always good as I found out the GoPro battery does not last long, especially after extensive usage.

I have used the GoPro video on my recent trip to Bali, a few weeks after I purchased it. The video quality is amazing, even in the water. I can see that it tries to stabilises the video during shooting but the best result will be using a gimble. At night, the GoPro is almost useless. So I have to switch to a normal point and shoot camera.
