Not sure if this is the correct place to post this, but here goes nothing. So, I am looking at upgrading my current GoPro which is the original HD Hero 1 Motorsports Edition to the latest Hero 3+, but I cannot decide or figure out which one I should get, either the Black Edition or the Silver Edition. So, my question is who all has the Silver Edition Hero 3+? How do you like it? Besides the savings of $100 over the Black Edition, what made you decide on the Silver Edition and not the top dog (Black Edition)? I am looking at the specs comparison on GoPro's site and some of it is gibberish to me at the moment. However, some nice features on the Black Edition are Burst Photo rates of up 30 in 1 second compared to the Silver Edition's 10 in 1 second. Another is Continuous Photo shooting on the Black Edition whereas the Silver Edition doesn't have that capability. Still few other features of the Black Edition that seems nice is the SuperView, Protune and Auto Low Light adjustments that the Silver Edition doesn't have. Other than these mentioned features built into the Black Edition camera and coming with the WiFi Remote there doesn't seem to be much difference in the two edition. But I am wondering how much of these features are used on a daily basis or on average. I mean I am no professional photographer and don't plan to be one. I just want to be able to film my trips down the road on two wheels and such. So, I am wondering what others went with and how well it meets their needs and if they regret not going with the Black Edition instead. Thanks in advance. OhioBob
