Need info on GoPro Hero 3Black

Offered a 2nd hand item as in title.  Anyone here use this video camera for golf swing vids and if anyone can give a use review, much appreciated.

I was considering getting one, but it's not really the best for golf swing analysis. It distorts the image which makes it less useful for golf. Plus, you have to get the backpack to replay your videos, which is both inconvenient and tiny. I know @Beachcomber has one, @iacas doesn't use his for golf, and I think @rkim291968 has one. I asked this question late last year. You can start reading here: [URL]http://thesandtrap.com/t/39036/comprehensive-camera-for-filming-your-golf-swing-thread/180#post_1075306[/URL]

I use it to view slow mo of my swing (currently to see if my hand is flipping at impact).   Check if the camera already has an updated FW released by GoPro to support 720p/250FPS.   That's the mode I use to tape my swing.   I don't have an app that can replay the video frame by frame - am too lazy to search for one.   If you have such app, that'd help analyze your swing much easier.
