So you’ve decided life is worth filming a little more, but how do you ensure quality footage when you can’t even see what your GoPro is aimed at? Enter the Removu R1+.
Many of us are getting into the action cam thing, especially when we’re hitting the ski slopes, the trails or travelling. But the best footage is often captured when your action cam is placed somewhere that’s not readily accessible, creating a problem of control. There’s nothing worse than risking life and limb only to get the composition completely off.
Skip the smartphone apps and go straight to the Removu R1+, a water, dust, and dirt-proof GoPro remote made for active lifestyles. Building on the popularity of the R1 remote, the R1+ adds a 30 minute, one-meter waterproof factor, which is handy if you’re hitting the surf line but doesn’t help much if you’re doing much more than doggie paddling.
However, there are a few other features you might like, from a self-timer for perfect selfies, and direct wi-fi, meaning you can leave the smartphone behind, to three-hour battery life.
The remote allows you full access to your GoPro’s controls, from mode settings to composition via a live view monitor. You can even ensure you’re taking great footage with instant playback at the press of a button. All you have to do is ensure you look great for the camera.
