Here's a totally unaffected (straight out of the camera) A/B comparison of video from the new GoPro Hero3+ and the Hero3. Both are Black Edition cams. I noted slight sharpness improvement with the plus (but not 33% like GoPro claims). I like the color better - less grayish tint and warmer reds and greens. Audio improvement seems insignificant - maybe a bit more volume with the plus. This was not shot in ProTune mode.
