3 the caMera<br />

To get the camera fully operational fi rst you<br />

need to insert the battery and then a mini SD<br />

card. You can buy one from 2gb capacity right<br />

up to 64. The slot in the side is clear enough.<br />

Through the USB cable you can charge the<br />

battery by hooking it to a computer, wall adapter<br />

(like most iPhones now have) or even a car<br />

adapter. It will take at least an hour for the battery<br />

to be 80% plugging into the ‘mains’ and<br />

don’t worry if you are running low while recording;<br />

the GoPro saves your recording before<br />

powering <strong>off</strong>.<br />

A size comparison of the camera to an iPhone<br />

shows you the relative small piece of technology<br />

you’re dealing with. There are three principal<br />

buttons and two lights. The small circle on<br />

the side activates the Wifi capabilities enabling<br />

sync with the remote control or the free, downloadable<br />

iPhone App from the website. Then<br />

there is the power/mode button on the front of<br />

the camera – where the metal housing nodule<br />

makes contact through the housing – and a<br />

shutter/select button on the top.
