The GoPro HERO3 is smaller and lighter than its predecessor. It's also Wi-Fi enabled. The HERO3 is designed for recording action sports and it comes with a rugged housing that is waterproof down to a depth of 197' (60 m). The camera captures 4K Cinema, 2.7K Cinema, 1440p and Full HD 1920 x 1080p MP4 video. It also captures 960p, 720p and 480p video as well. Plus, it supports NTSC and PAL, and it can record up to 240 fps. For still images, the HERO3 supports 5, 7 and 12-megapixel photos.

I have been happily using GoPro Hero3 files with Avid Media Composer 5, but GoPro Hero3 files with MC6 lost start-time and it’s not ideal for editing work.

However, if you have got one Hero3 and want to imput the recorded HD movies to Avid Media Composer for editing, you are likey to meet the similar errors like the above user.

While, if you've transcoded Hero3 MP4 videos to DNxHD, you will easily get file to Avid for smoothly editing.
