  • Hi all

    I'm getting my wife a GoPro for Christmas, the Hero + LCD, can anyone tell me if it's essential to have a mount of some sort to use with it and which is the best value in your experience? She will mostly be shooting footage by hand.

    Thanks

    What will she be shooting footage of? Will she want to shoot whilst moving? If stationary, then any hand grip will do. I would really only recommend a gopro for shooting sports or underwater. For general holiday videos, a camera with a narrower field of view would be better. The gopro is very wide angle and anything further than a few meters away appears very small on the picture.
