Restoring Broken GoPro Hero 3+ a Subscriber Sent Me - Action Camera Restoration

Go to nordvpn.com/oddtinkering or use code oddtinkering to get a 2-year plan with a huge discount! This GoPro was sent to me to be restored and repaired by a subscriber who didn't have any use for it. The camera was released by GoPro on 2012.
The camera has some visual damage, the USB port is damaged and the lens has some scratches. When I tested it it wouldn't stay on but it would just keep turning on and off after few seconds. There is also some dust on the sensor which causes dark spots on the video and pictures.
The GoPro was disassembled. And I noticed one of the connectors had gone loose. Probably after falling or lot of vibration. After putting the connector back the camera worked normally. Now I could see what the image was like. There were some dots caused by dust particles on the sensor. I took the sensor off and cleaned it gently with a dry q-tip.
Next I repainted the front cover. I started with sanding and filling all dents with filler. Next it was coated with plastic primer to ensure teh paints stays on. I also remade the logo with a water transfer image that I printed out. Finally everything was clear coated to protect it further.
I polished the lens and LCD screen to remove scratches. Acrylic polishing compound was used for the screen and glass polish compound was used for the lens. I also used a special glass polishing pad because glass is very hard and polishing it by hand would take a long time.
Thank you for watching my video!

  • Note to most people: DO NOT clean an image sensor with a q-tip and alcohol unless you REALLY know what you're doing. For most image sensors you should use a lint-free microfiber flexible swab designed for cleaning image sensors and methanol instead of isopropyl alcohol. Otherwise you run a major risk of permanently damaging the sensor.

    • obviously correct, but we are all here for the spirit of the game. An old GoPro isn't worth all that patience and expert effort anyway. There are plenty good used ones, but this is a restoration channel. And there is no human way to re-apply a correct factory-grade coating on a lens without proper industrial equipment. So degraded as it is, it works and it looks the part, which in a world of disposable equipment and planned obsolescence is worth commending.

That way I can just skip ahead in the video without having to hear or see it (the creator gets paid whether people watch it or not, so skipping it is a-okay).

  • Fun Fact: About 9 years ago, GoPro gave away a GoPro daily, plus all the accessories. People won from all over the world, and the winners posted pictures of the box full of 'goodies'. Sadly, the daily give-away ended. Since you restored a GoPro, someone should send you an MP3 Player. i.e. Sony 20:24 Place a strip of rubber from an old inner tube inside the bracket, to keep the camera from rotating back or forward on the handlebar.

      @nooaiden@nooaiden2 жыл бұрын
    • Yes, it does. I suspect the scratches were only in this coating (anti-reflective coating or AR) which made it fairly easy to polish out. Scratches in the actual glass would be harder to deal with. Without this coating, the images won't be as nice as they would be with it but this way you get a usable image without the scratch artifacts. A nice restoration of a very ruggedly-used GoPro.
