Underwater with the GoPro Hero 3+

When it comes with underwater photography, this is perhaps the first time we used a GoPro for the task. It used to be some compact underwater camera or an IP67 water-proof smartphone. It seems the Hero 3+ is a much better fit for the task.

Armed with a chest harness, we strapped on a Go Pro Hero 3+ while snorkeling. Here’s what we got from it.

The only other concern for now is the battery life. Although 30 minutes is enough, an extra battery can be useful for long trips.
