Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “GoPro LCD BacPac Unboxing & Overview”.
What’S up guys it’s time for some more vicarious consumption? Today, we’ve got the GoPro LCD BacPac, which is an LCD screen for your HD hero cameras. And if you don’t know what those are then you suck at life, not I’m just kidding they’re, basically incredibly cool little miniature cameras that can endure life in extreme environments. They are specifically suited for extreme sports applications and they shoot in a wide angle and in high definition, but one of the only downsides of them is that to this point there was really no way of playing back the footage you took at least on the fly And that’s what this product here sets out to sort of squash is now it’s gon na be more like a traditional digital camera, and that you can, you know, review what you just shot anyway. What we’re looking at here are some new backdoors for your different, durable enclosures that you’re used to putting your GoPro into, and the reason that there’s so many is because each one has a sort of different function. As you can see on the side here, you’ve got waterproof door standard, waterproof door for the wrist housing non, waterproof door, etc, etc. Next we’ve got the user manual and it’s hard to get excited about user manuals. But one thing I did notice right away is that you’ve got white text on black paper.
I don’t know if they guess anybody else excited, but anyway, maybe maybe I won’t lose it now. Maybe yeah, maybe you’ll, say hey it’s that little black book over there there’s the manual, but who cares? You probably won’t need it now that you got this LCD because the GoPro just got a hell of a lot less complicated to use anyway. On the back here, we’ve got our male attachment. That’S the part, that’s gon na plug in to the GoPro and interface with it.
We’Ve also got a speaker and now that we can play back video, let’s get closer so see here, you’ve got the different connectors. The speaker closer up, you got the play button now, which makes sense. I mean it’s a tiny little LCD, but it’s a tiny little camera see what I’m saying. Let’S get it hooked up here.
You’Ve got this little sort of hinge piece here. It just sort of sits, sits in this Cove and spins down and clips. So I suppose that in the event that you want it to be super durable, you could still shoot without the LCD attached. It does make it a little bit fatter.
So if we power on a device, we see that right away boom, we got video now no more wondering what you’re looking at you could actually frame a shot. Now this to me, this is a huge improvement. Like I mean I used to take a look at the GoPro sitting over there and be like wow: do I want to use it? Don’T want to take it out with me today? I’M gon na have other cameras too, and I you know I would decide based on usability and now, with this this new LCD, the use abilities gone through the roof.
I mean we have a legitimate battery meter rejoice, but we’ve also got a much more usable Settings. Menu, that’s a big one, so let’s go ahead and insert the camera into the waterproof housing. So you can get a sense for just how big it is when it’s all hooked up and as you can see, the LCD remains clear.
Even you know, through the enclosure, and we’ve got a different button attachment here to deal with that new button. We got anyway if you were unsure about buying a GoPro before now is the time. My friends, it’s attachment completely changes the game. It’S way easier to use more fun to use and I’m gon na go ahead and totally recommend you. Do it anyway check out our Channel .
