Over all is a good camera but I wish it was easier for older people to use. I'm having trouble figuring it all out and how to load the videos etc. It works be nice if I could transfer directly from the camera to another device using an HDMI cable instead of pulling out the memory chip and putting it into another device.
I think I also need a newer lap top to use it as my old one don't seem to want to work with this.
While I'm walking you can hardly perceive the normal bounce.
Just barely adequate battery performance - lasting maybe 35 minutes on video.
Also stupid design you have to open or remove the battery door to charge battery - leaving the inserted battery, the SD card and the internals of cam open to dust, etc.
Also, before settling on my current iPad Pro 11", I had other versions, all refurbished, all were just fine (no cosmetic damages or malfunctions), and again, saved a lot of money. I was able to return the items when no longer needed at no cost to me.
So don't be a sucker- try buying refurbished items first and if something is wrong, Amazon and other stores have generous return policies.
Anyhow, the biggest gripe I have with GoPro is their crappy desktop software. GPS signal reception by these things is incredibly weak...although when using 3rd-party apps, I can see GPS data was encoded in the video, but the GoPro software won't ever display it.
The Hero 8 is much improved over the Hero 7 and earlier, but the Hero 9 isn't much more than a, "My male part is bigger than yours". Can't watch 5K video in 5K if your GPU and display don't support it, so what's the point? (yes, I said 5K, because that's what the 9 advertises, IIRC) Also, the larger the resolution, the more space you'll need on your SD card.
Anyhow, that's my rant. Go away now.
This is an Amazon Renewed product. I have brought other Renewed products before and I was very satisfied and impressed. The 90 day warranty is what gets it for me. I did buy the Renewed GP6 last year. I returned it I wasn't impressed. But this camera for the price couldn't be beat especially with the warranty
