Funsportz Sdn Bhd introduces GoPro Hero 3+ at their glitzy launch and training session in Kuala Lumpur
FUNSPORTZ SDN BHD announced the availability of GoPro’s new HERO3+ line of cameras in Malaysia featuring a 20% smaller and lighter design and 30% better battery life than previous models. These upgrades combine with an improved lens and convenient new video capture modes to produce the most advanced and easy-to-use GoPro, yet. The hew HERO3+ line of cameras were launched worldwide by GoPro on October 1, 2013. In addition, Funsportz also announced several new mounting accessories that further enable immersive content capture during any activity. The HERO3+ line of cameras and accessories are now available at www.funsportz.com and at select retailers nationwide.
GoPro is enabling people to capture and share life experiences in a way that was never before possible. Prior to GoPro, it was very difficult for anyone to capture content of themselves doing anything without having the help of someone else to film them. GoPro has enabled a new era of self-documentation whereby people can now easily wear or mount miniature ultra wide-angle GoPro cameras to record themselves doing just about anything, anywhere. The result is a surge of immersive user-generated and professional content made possible by the versatility and affordability of GoPro’s cameras and accessories. An average of three GoPro “tagged” videos are uploaded to YouTube every minute, and GoPro is used by the world’s leading production companies to help produce some of today’s most engaging film and television content.
In addition to being the best-selling camera globally in consumer markets*, GoPro’s HERO3 camera has also been the best-selling camera to professional production companies, on a volume basis. The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences recently awarded the HERO3 camera an Emmy for its contributions to filmmaking and television production.
“We have used GoPro cameras in some of our biggest productions, like Survivor and The Bible. GoPro has allowed us to capture and share fascinating new perspectives that previously weren’t possible or were too costly, which in the end makes for better story telling. We are always excited to see what GoPro is working on next,” remarks award winning producer, Mark Burnett.
