Hello,

I'm trying to find a red filter for the Gopro Hero basic model, and am finding it really tricky as every search comes up with filters for the 3 and 4.

I know there's at least one out there, as earlier in the year we hired a round red filter where the red lense screwed on to the filter and it worked with the Hero, but stupidly didn't write down the name?

Can anyone recommend one?

Thank you!
Bryony
 
What is the "HERO basic model"? A HERO with the housing like the one below? If yes, keep in mind that this housing will NOT focus underwater, regardless of adding a filter. As a friend described, it's like putting lipstick on a pig. They are still ugly after all.

The solution used to be a few after-market housings with a flat port, which are now probably rare to find, or the HERO "Dive Housing", also rare to find and costing over $100.
 
I could be wrong but I think you are talking about the red filter from PolarPro.
 
Filters that fit the Hero 4 and Hero 3+ in the standard housing will fit the current production Hero and Hero+. Ref: Page Not Found | GoPro Official Website Just be sure and get the ones for the standard housing and not the dive housing.
