GoPro HERO4 BLACK

Product Information

If you are into shooting video of the 4K variety, don’t overlook this tiny but powerful little camera. There are two different lengths of clip, plus two link extenders that rotate the pointing direction by 90 degrees, and can be used together to create a pivot arm. Once you start jumping around and adding major vibration to your recordings, you might as well just shoot in 1080p and save yourself some disc space. The action camera market is expanding at blinding speed, and the best known name in this sector is GoPro. However, using Wi-Fi and the app reduces the battery life by a quarter, to a rather measly 50 minutes in 4K.

If you’re recording dirt bike adventures in 4K you’ll not see much of an improvement over upscaled 1080p footage.

If you need to track fast moving vehicles or animals then the Solo is potentially going to be your best bet – add to that the stamina of an Ox and you have a top photography drone. There's a flat Log profile that you can shoot in when you're planning on performing color correction during editing—it gives you the most latitude to adjust contrast, exposure, and the like.Next down the quality run is 1440p, which is available in Ultra Wide only at 80, 60, 50, 48, 30, 25, or 24fps.

Other new features include Bluetooth support, not just Wi-Fi, and the ability to tag your best footage as you shoot it.If you simply want to cut footage together without worrying about color correction, leave the default GoPro Color setting enabled. And on the right hand side of the body the old direct access Wi-Fi button now becomes the settings button – and if you hold down for a couple of seconds it will still enable you to toggle Wi-Fi on and off. You can switch out the AC adapter for another power source, such as a USB power brick or USB power hub.
