The GoPro Hero3 Black, introducing a new 12MP sensor, was released in 2013 and, at the time, was the highest end GoPro model with 4K UHD video capture. The Hero3 brought a 30% smaller and 25% lighter action camera.

Artifacts on video in low light

My GoPro Hero 3+ Black edition is showing artifacts on videos. No way to solve this issue with gopro support team. I need to repair the camera by myself.

How bad is it? It might be that the sun/other bright things have slightly damaged the sensor and burned it. (kind of like burn in on amoled screens)

I see there are many sellers from which I can buy a new sensor. My question is: Is that a solution ?
