As some of you may have seen, the GoPro Hero 3 is now out. Especially the most expensive model (black edition) is a major upgrade from the Hero 2. And all are wifi enabled, which is of course very convenient if you mount the camera on the outside of your aircraft. (But is possibly illegal, so you did not hear this from me...)
But there is one other thing I noticed. In the promo video at the GoPro site and YouTube there are a few shots of aircraft and helicopters, and that annoying prop artifacting that is always present with the Hero & Hero 2 is no longer there.
I'm not sure whether this is because they are now using new sensor technology, or whether they are using ND filters or maybe a super slo-mo frame rate for those shots.
Anyone with more technical knowledge about sensor technology than me, cares to take a look at the specs, to see if they are indeed using better sensor technology to prevent prop artifacting?
