Huge space is for ipad air.

Cannot fault the Go Pro Black + Awesome!!!

What sort of clamp do you use for that? Looks like it's attached to a Gardiners quick loc.

Also what are you using as a monitor?

Clamped on a normal wfp using this http://grippatank.co.uk/vacuum/high-level-vacuum-poles-kits-spares/survey-camera-kits/3082/gopro-roll-bar-mount-detail.html

Moniter is my iPhone or iPad

The camera has it's own wifi and using the GoPro app I can see what's in the gutters and record

So why are the gopro white so much cheaper than the black?

I know nothing about them but could use one on my cycle rides too.  :)

You get more bang for ya buck with the black.

Wifi
£80 wifi remote.
Mega pixels are higher.
Other stuff as well.

I use a roll bar mount and a Gardiner quick lock angle adapter. I also have a lanyard on it. As simon from concept recommended that.

I use an iPhone or my ipad. The idea was everyone has iPhones at work. So can they use their own :)

Interesting thanks. Are you sucking with the camera attached or do you use a camera pole? Do you mount your iphone to the base of the gutterpole?

I don't do the gutter vac work but you can use it while using the gutter vac as I made an attachment for that as well.

Usually check gutters before and then after. Record if needed.

Last job I was on camera and had my dad on vac. VERY quick way to work!

Bought mine a black 3+ about a month ago and over the moon with it.
Much clearer than others I have used :)

So all you need is a Go Pro white or black, a mount to secure it to a pole and an Ipad/tablet or smart phone with wifi. Is that it? Sorry for being 'uneducated'.

Yeah the camera puts out it's own WIFI.

SO you can even link it to the customers phone lol.

As long as phone has wifi or tablet you are ok.

You get a free APP as well.

I would look at the silver or black. But having used the black I would really recommend the black.
