Would a GoPro be a good choice to use when filming hunts?

Question
Is a GoPro4 or any GoPro clear when you are reviewing the footage on a hunt? And. Can you zoom in and out on the footage on a video? Do you recommend that I buy one if I am interested in recording my hunts?

Alec,

GoPro’s are great at filming wide angle close range events.  They are perfect for filming hunters, etc.  They might be OK to film a bow hunt that’s 20 yards or less.  There wouldn’t be much detail if the critter was more than 20 yards away. They simply aren’t built for that mission.

Enjoy creation,
