You"ve already sold your Hero2 in preparation; you"ve read all of the literature that you could get your hands on; you"ve waited patiently with bated breath, and now the next generation of GoPro is finally here. The GoPro Hero3 Black Edition - Adventure has arrived, and we assure you that it"s worth the wait. Just looking at the external appearance of the GoPro Hero3 Black Edition, the difference in iterations couldn"t be more night and day.
