I used mine Memorial Day weekend for the first time. GoPro brand suction cup worked great.

Not sure I care much for the GoPro Studio software. It was a little "clunky" to use - and the built in templates are a little "restrictive".

Best software is Adobe Premier. Take a little effort learning but worth it.

Pretty stoked, I just bought a GoPro Hero3+ Black edition, and will be posting Q's. 1st Q is what SD card does everyone use?..#2 Does this suction cup mount come with the camera, or do I have to buy that...., #3 DId you buy extra batteries?
Thanks,
Dean

Suction cup will have to be bought separate, they are about $30-$40. For the sd card you will want to get a class 10 with at least 32gb but 64gb would be better. A larger battery or extra batteries is a must if you plan on doing prolonged videos.

Get an extended battery, for us they last a whole Poker Run. If you use the remote your battery will deplete down very fast, so piggyback battery is a must. Always remove the second battery when charging, I know that some are pass thru charging but for some reason you do not get a full charge with both hooked together on the camera. Use the mobile app to connect to the camera once every so often and it will automatic load updates.

the app on your phone can also doubles as the remote if u don't want to buy one and the view shows up on the phone so u know what the camera is getting in the shot. I also set my camera up to shoot in 720p it is a good video and saves on space on the sd card. here is one of mine I put together
