GoPro Action Camera Hero (Electronics)

Customer Review

The battery is integrated and can not be exchanged. The whole camera can not be taken out of their thick plastic housing. It is light, but also cumbersome. Without handle it is like a small lump in her hand, but because behind it a certain resilience seems to hide, it is cool again.

Because they simply called HERO, it is troublesome to find accessories. The "Red GoPro Dive filter" would be useful, for example, because the camera is waterproof up to 40 meters, but does not seem compatible. Also, the battery pack. Also an external microphone does not seem to be connected. An accessory there is - except fortifications - seemingly nothing.

If the HERO is clear and good light prevails the image quality of 1080p30 is useful, but it is moved are 720p60 better choice. That's enough to tell good stories. The post-ride smoother and faster. 720p60 are at least 1080x720 pixels @ 60 frames / sec (see. DVD PAL 720x576 @ 25 frames / sec). The resolution is sufficient, but it is still just because you can not curtail the material with no visible quality loss.

The missing display this HERO is no shortage as it takes a wide angle fixed focus with. The picture is therefore always sharp, and at angles of between 130 ° and 170 ° have been rather difficult not to get the picture.

This cheap camera works surprisingly well and is straightforward. But much more important than the features of the camera are well received ideas and a complete workflow for post production.

An alternative to the HERO is his SJ4000, as you change the batteries when you and the camera can take out of the case the QUMOX. I bought it as well. It is small, not waterproof, but I personally like better.

UPDATE 3 months:

So an action cam is initially exciting and turns out to be specially ordered for. You have to turn a lot of material and a lot of editing experience have an exciting minute to turn from the first-person view. The solid angle is too little of the environment in which one was. Since worth looking at the new camcorder generation, for example, the Sony HDR-PJ330 (Full-HD, 30x optical zoom, built-in projectors, 215 grams, less than 400, -.).

For parachute and Skischanzenspringer, downhill rides by mountain bike, the car, the motorcycle, or pure documentation purposes at the helm of cavers or firemen ... like so a Actioncam be perfect. For the majority of applications more than one perspective is simply asked. On top of that we are very spoiled by films and always some sensation expect does not come then. After 1 minute, the most rapid downhill ride by MTB's even boring. Only with a camcorder you're practically grown any situation and can involve the environment. In the medium term it will perhaps give the camcorder Actioncams connect via Bluetooth, who knows?
