GoPro Hero 8 Black
There's more to like about the GoPro Hero 8 Black because there appears to be less of it!
A GoPro that got in shape
The streamlined design and reimagined shape makes the GoPro Hero 8 Black's more pocketable, and therefore more portable. Meanwhile, folding fingers at the base let you swap mounts quickly, a new side door speeds up the battery changing process, and the lens is two times more impact resistant.
One smooth unit
Hero 8 Black is the smoothest GoPro yet with three levels of stabilization to suit your requirements. Couple that with the widest views possible and your footage reaches dramatic new heights. As a big plus, HyperSmooth works with all resolutions and frame rates, and features in-app horizon levelling.
Let's do the time warp again
TimeWarp 2.0 captures super stabilized time lapse videos and can automatically adjust the speed based on motion, scene detection and lighting. Another neat trick you can play is to slow down the effect to real time and then tap to speed it back up when you're ready.
You'll love LiveBurst
This cool mode captures 1.5 seconds before and after you hit the shutter, allowing you to pick your preferred shot from 90 still images. Or, you can choose to share a 3-second 4K video clip.
Night Lapse Video
This feature makes it possible to shoot amazing time lapse videos at night in 4K, 2.7K 4:3, 1440p or 1080p.
Get the best view every time
It's easier than ever to get the best view regardless of what you're doing. Simply tap through these four lenses: Narrow, distortion-free Linear, Wide and SuperView.
