I bought a GoPro to take to Kilimanjaro with me. I had never used one before in my life so I decided to try it out yesterday on the most popular route in the Mournes; Slieve Donard via Glen River.
I was trying to avoid filming other people at the saddle and at the summit.
I added some of that free music from YouTube and I am actually quite pleased with the results. I might start doing this for some of the other main routes / peaks.
If anyone want's a look;
Available in 1080p

That's nicely done Sean, the footage looks crisp and clear and takes in some grand views.
A great little test of the equipment and editing.
-
Thank you.
I do have to say though, GoPro do make it very easy; the camera and their free editing software are both so easy to use.
Fantastic gadgets for the price.

Great video sean need to visit donard again have never seen more than a few meters when we have been up :-(

Awesome. So you recommend the GoPro Hero3+ Silver?
-
Yes, I would definitely recommend the Hero3+ silver.
-
Temptation overtook me, Argos is selling the Hero3+ Silver for £199, seemed too good a deal to pass up.
What was the pole you were using and would you recommend it?
-
I got mine for the same price on Amazon.
The pole is from this kit: http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00KU70F5S/ref=pe_385721_37986871_TE_item
Not official Gopro but the quality seems really good so yes, I would recommend it.
It includes a pole, chest mount, head mount, wrist mount and a couple of other attachments.
I also bought a couple of 64Gb Class 10 Samsung Micro SD cards from Amazon also. About £22 each if I remember right.
