Go Pro Hero 3

Post by mitmaks »

Anyone into these cameras? Anyways I just got one and it didn't come with sd card so I bought this one

Anyways, the problem I'm having is I start recording and it will record for several seconds and stops recording. I look at the video it recorded and it's choppy, real slow. What is the problem here?
I've installed new firmware, etc but it still does it.

I just picked up a Hero 3+ Black a few weeks ago.

For the high resolutions and high fps, you need a fast SD card. Although that's listed as a Class 10, it may be a cheapy and not up to the task. I have a 32GB Sandisk Extreme Plus and record at 1080p @ 60fps with no problems.
HERO3: Black Edition & HERO3+ Black Edition Cameras
•A Class 10 MicroSD card up to 64 GB is required.

Not all Class 10 microSD cards have the same data write speeds. If you plan to shoot in 4k, 2.7k, or Protune video modes with your HERO3: Black Edition or HERO3+ Black Edition camera, we recommend using one of the following microSD cards for the best performance:
•SanDisk Extreme 32GB microSDHC (SDSDQXL-032G)
•SanDisk Extreme 64GB microSDXC (SDSDQXL-064G)
•Lexar 32GB SDHC 600x (LSDMI32GBSBNA600R)
•Lexar 64GB SDXC 600x (LSDMI64GBSBNA600R)
•Delkin 32GB SDHC (DDMICROSDPRO2-32GB)
•Delkin 64GB SDXC (DDMICROSDPRO264GB)
