• After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.

    I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.

    For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.

    From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.

    Sincerely, Jeff D.

Do any of the GP (or competing) models allow the use of a proper external microphone?
The thin audio is bad enough, but the loud plastic rattle so typical of these cameras drives me insane.

Thanks

There's a 3.5 mm adapter you can get for it, but you'll need a housing that you can use to plug it in with, as the standard housing does not have any external connectivity.

The adapter: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/895505-REG/GoPro_amccc_301_3_5mm_Mic_Adapter.html

The "skeleton housing" that, while not waterproof, gives you access to the ports: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=&sku=969900&Q=&is=REG&A=details

They have an accessory called "the frame" that doesn't provide much protection, but it does allow you to plug in the adapter: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=&sku=895441&Q=&is=REG&A=details
