shootr Posted December 28, 2013 #26 Share Posted December 28, 2013 (edited) I dont see a problem with it even if they are trying to make some "uber cool video". Its their cruise, everyone enjoys it in a different way... That being said, the thread kinda got hyjacked... lol Where are the videos? Show us... Show us... lol Gotta wait to mid March - nothing but practice for now - in the DESERT! (Doesn't quite jive with the thread goals :) ) ***To deviate back to chargers/bricks/etc - I found this on eBay after a lot of looking. 4 USB outlets that are all high powered at 1A each or better when used simultaneously. Most multi-outlet usb bricks split 1A or less, this way all devices charge at their peak ability - and with a simple euro plug adapter for 3.00 more, it can plug into the Magic's euro outlet, freeing up the other one. http://www.ebay.com/itm/301026713480?var=600172748806&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649 Edited December 28, 2013 by shootr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
admitchell97@aol.com Posted January 22, 2014 #27 Share Posted January 22, 2014 We are definitely bringing out GoPro onto the Carnival Dream February 15-23. Going to take lots of footage of the process, the ship, our excursions, etc. since my partner is in the audio, video, technical, satelite and production business, when we get home and he works his magic, we will be more than happy to share. We LOVE our GoPro !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shoppingfever Posted January 22, 2014 #30 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Subscribed and looking forward to seeing more videos. I am itching to get a gopro and often see them on craigslist brand in package. The GoPro2's are going for $100-$150 and the GoPro3 HD from $300-upwards.

admitchell97@aol.com Posted January 22, 2014 #31 Share Posted January 22, 2014 The problem with GoPros are all the added accessories, batteries, mounts, and other delectable toys you can add to make things more professional and easy to catch those incredible shots. But trust me, you will love it. Waterproof case is invaluable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shoppingfever Posted January 22, 2014 #32 Share Posted January 22, 2014 So for a newbie Gopro'er, is the Hero2 an okay option? The prices I am seeing for those are much more doable before our cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are all capable cameras and any of the HD Hero models will do great video. The higher end models are good if you need higher frame rates or shorter timelapse intervals, but an HD Hero2 is still a very good camera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does broadcast work in house for the Detroit Red Wings, shows for Ford Motor Company, and satellite work for the Detroit Tigers. He just said the HERO 2 is an exceptional GoPro for it's cost and what it does and will be great for a novice up to a professional Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbreeze Posted January 22, 2014 #36 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Here is my first GoPro video from my December cruise on the Freedom. I am new to GoPros and editing and I have a lot to learn! But the camera was a blast to use on the cruise. I loved taking it snorkeling and horseback riding on the beach! I have a silver hero 2. Looking forward to taking on my February cruise on the Dream! http://youtu.be/aCIFQ78pbRI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
admitchell97@aol.com Posted January 22, 2014 #37 Share Posted January 22, 2014 That's cool! Which cruise are you taking? Ours is 15th. Maybe if the same we can meet up and compare notes. Jeff is a master at it and can give you some great pointers. Let us know. We are on Dream 2/15-2/22, cabin 9206 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boarding Valor on Feb. 19th. and will be hunting my new GoPro while on the cruise, as soon as I can..Duty Free somewhere! . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cbreeze Posted January 22, 2014 #40 Share Posted January 22, 2014 That's our cruise! Dream 2/15. I would love to get some pro tips!

JKCamara Posted January 22, 2014 #41 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Here is a link to the video that my husband created of one of our Carnival Paradise cruises to Cozumel. It was shot with a GoPro Hero 3 Black Edition. Hope you guys enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamac56 Posted January 22, 2014 #42 Share Posted January 22, 2014 OMG! thank you all for making me want to go buy one TODAY. My daughter bought her hubby one for their cruise on the dream last thanksgiving and when they went scuba diving the videos were off the charts!!!!! Soooooo..... I booked the entire family of 6 for a cruise march 2 on the legend which DD and SIL along with hubby will be scuba diving, I was not sure whether we should buy one so he can get his own videos or not and watching all the videos on here tells me I should, if nothing else I will attach it to my great danes collar and get some dog footage!!!!! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugar67 Posted January 22, 2014 #43 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Where is the best place to buy one in St Maarten and roughly how much are they? My hubby has been oogling these for a while and this would be an awesome present to bring home for him....he was nice enough to let me go off to the Carribean and leave him home in this terrible Canadian winter!

It was shot with a GoPro Hero 3 Black Edition. Hope you guys enjoy! Wow, really cool. What was that wand thing you held the camera with to get those shots? I haven't seen that as an assessory. How's the audio if you didn't want to play a song over your shots? Sorry, I know this is a thread to see the videos, but these are amazing and I want to know more about the Go Pro. The Hero 3 white edition looks right up my alley!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hero 3 white edition looks right up my alley!!! Thanks! It is called a quik pod. It has been a wonderful tool to have. The audio is not great with GoPros mainly due to the waterproof case that is around it. There is a skeleton case available more for sound type shots.
