GoPro now has a one-button solution that not only powers the camera on, but also starts recording as well. According to GoPro, the system also dynamically reduces wind noise to improve sound during windy activities like skiing, biking, and motorcycling. In order to record quality sound underwater and above the surface without a case, GoPro’s engineers designed a drainage system inspired by the human ear to aid in water-clearing post-submersion. I used The Strap to get a “hands-on” perspective of my kill. Sadly, the area had been pretty fished out, but I still managed to nab one for dinner.
