I love this lens. only I don’t like a lens cover there is no strip so I almost lose it. I take off lens cover back and forth. It's inconvenience

I like this but the back lens cap to the macro did not fit the macro.

This is my second review of this camera. The first time I gave it a ONE STAR review, but I have been able to resolve many of my issues. The GoPro team has finally turned their Tech Support line back on and even though they have outsourced overseas, I was able to get my problems resolved.First and most important, this camera's Write/Read speed is far greater than my old 3+ Silver. That said, the micro SD card from my old camera IS NOT COMPATIBLE! This is important because it will sort of work, but not really and you lose most of your video. Go to the GoPro site and find a listing of the few SD card that are compatible. I got a 64MG Lexar for less than my old SanDisk 32MG and it resolved 100% of my "function" issues. Save yourself tons of aggravation and get the "right" card from the start. Many of the one star reviews are because of this issue alone I believe.Secondly, the video quality was on par with the very first digital camera's first produced. Splotchy, and like filming through water drops that were moving. I would say it was about 1/10th the quality of my old 3+ Silver and That was a deal breaker for me. I then took the camera into a bright light area and tried to inspect the lens as best I could. I realized that the inside of the housing and the camera lens itself came from the factory filthy. Once I figured out how to open the lens cover, it appeared someone with oil on their fingers put this camera together. I methodically cleaned both the lens and the housing, it was disgusting. It has made all the difference in the world as I think the sensor was trying to focus on the closest item, the dirty lens.I have now taken film inside of a building of people showing dogs at a show, outdoor film of dogs running and jumping, inside the house dog play, and films from my dash while driving my truck. The quality of everything is what I had heard I should have and I am very pleased.I have noted that this new camera, even though it doesn't need a housing, has extremely poor audio pick up. I may have to keep looking for a setting that might improve this. Also, if you leave the back LED on while filming, your battery will only last about 30-45 minutes of film time. There is a setting where it will turn off after 60 seconds which seems to about double the battery life. Also, I found that if I use the USB that came with the camera to charge the battery in the camera, it take 6-8 hours to get a full charge. I therefore bought the $50 dual fast charger and two more batteries, so I have three batteries every time I go out...and no surprise, the old batteries are NOT compatible with this new camera.Many of the touch screen commands are far superior to the old Menu system. That alone makes this a better camera. But, they also encourage you to download and use their new QUIK program, and I will never figure out why. I am glad I kept my old GoPro Studio. Oh yeah, my PC wil recognize that the 5+Black is attached, but it will not download or play anything from it and I'm using WIN10. If I remove the SD card and plug it in direct to my PC, everything works and I can download/play/transfer/etc. all. My 3+ did the same thing, so no big deal.I hope that once the GoPro folks get through this massive trade in program, that they then will go back to a Tech Department that is responsive to questions and problems. To date they have never tried to answer any of my inquiries except to send me a survey after I finally talked to their outsource tech folks. When they do that, I may give this camera a 5 Star.

I had an adapter just like this but from a different manufacturer and had been using it for probably over 7 years to connect a second monitor. The other day, my second monitor started going back and forth between having a signal and displaying, then losing signal and showing "No Signal" on the screen. It would go back and forth between these two states. After checking all the connections for the second monitor, I bought this to see if it was the old adapter that was going bad. And sure enough, it was the old adapter. Plugged in this new one and I'm back in business. Never realized how much I utilize my dual monitor set up, until after not having it for a day. One interesting thing that happened, when I plugged it in. Was that afterwards my sound stopped working. It picked up the connection of the HDMI and changed audio to the computer instead of my speaker set up. Just a simple selection change and my sound was back. This $6 fix made me very happy.

This backpack is really comfortable. It took a little while to work out the straps as there is an extra strap to keep it in place which I could not fathom out. It slings over the right shoulder which was a bit odd for me as I would have though it should be over the left shoulder but I got used to it very quickly.This comfortably holds my Canon EOS 500D with 3 lenses, a 'nifty fifty', the kit 17-55mm lense and a 55-250 canon zoom lense. It also holds the charger, a large Speedlite flash unit, compact flash cards and would have enough room for a small bottle of water or a couple of packets of sweets.The things I like about this are the fact that I can put the camera back in with the zoom lens on without switching back top the kit lens. My previous bag, a fabulous Lowepro was a little too small and I cracked my prevous Tamron zoom lens because the lens glass was too near the bottom of the bag. The other excellent feature is that you can access the camera and lens without taking the bag off your back. Swing it to the front and you can open the zips and change the lens. You can safely balance the camera on the bag itself to switch lenses.It is quite a big camera bag but I am really excited to take the camera on safari this summer in this bag. I think it will be perfect for this purpose.Well done Amazon Basics!!

The phone holder sent was not the one in the picture and only has the threaded adapter on one end instead of on both the end and the back.

Some of the lights won’t go back on.4 of them. Just finished my bar n put them on last night n some won’t go back on. 10/4/2020

This arrived new, and it was just what I thought I needed. However, when I got the adapter my HDMI ports decided to start back working so to keep this would be pointless, BUT if it goes out again I'm coming back to this sellers!!
