GoPro HERO5 cameras

GoPro HERO5 Black and Session have stepped up their game in a several areas.

GoPro has pulled out all the stops in this long-awaited sequel the Hero4 camera. Instead of developing a mere successor to the line, GoPro has developed an entire ecosystem which includes a drone, a cloud-based storage solution, gimbals, and much more.

After the riding the seemingly endless wave generated by its brand and POV category creation and dominance, GoPro is now faced with stiff competition and a core customer base that is somewhat saturated. Gone are the days of releasing more resolution at $ 500 price points. The euphoria has declined and customers are now looking for real solutions for shooting, editing and sharing videos.

HERO5 Black is the most powerful, easy-to-use GoPro, ever. Features include:

2-inch Touch Display + Simplified Controls
Video Resolutions up to 4K at 30 Frames per Second
Professional Quality 12MP Photos
Auto-Upload of Photos and Video to Cloud when Camera is Charging*

Compatible with Existing GoPro Mounts, Including Karma
Stereo Audio Recording and Advanced Wind Noise Reduction
Professional-Grade Electronic Video Stabilization

Are these cameras enough to get the core customer back to the GoPro brand? Certainly not but there is much, much more in this GoPro release included the much-awaited Karma drone. That and the other solutions certainly get us excited once again.
