The first major design for GoPro's camera since the 2007 release. It's available for purchase starting next week. You can check out a nice review of it here:
man I love GoPro, can't wait til their drone comes out. This thing is waterproof up until 33feet btw, that's awesome!
Oh my goodness! It's miniscule and they've managed to get 2 hrs battery life, which is an improvement. I haven't owned one previously, but I'm very tempted now!
I'm really digging the aesthetic changes, this looks slick, whereas before they still looked kind of dorky.
It really seems to be pretty much the same camera as The Polaroid Cube.
for 4x the price, it doesn't make any sense.
I don't get the price... lower specs and the same price of the Hero4 Silver.
Built in battery is not good for pro use as people off the grid and on the fly can't just swap batteries and go. They needed a more simple consumer camera with an easier toggle menu and this looks like the right fit.
WIRED writer Brent Rose did a review of the Hero4 Session and compared it heavily against the Hero 4 Silver. His conclusion was that the Hero 4 Silver is the way to go because it has much better colors, among other things. The linked video gives some good camera comparison shots that show the Hero 4 Silver pulling ahead.
Hey Phillip, thanks for letting me know. I'll check it out.
