The new camera is also only $400-a full $100 cheaper than the previous Hero4 Black. Also, it will be fully compatible with GoPro's forthcoming Karma drone. Given the new features and the excellent image quality, the Hero5 Black is the best action camera you can buy. Other enhancements include faster wireless data transfers, RAW photo capability, on-board software to eliminate lens distortion, and decent electronic image stabilization. When it's charging it can auto-upload your videos to your GoPro Plus cloud account, GoPro's new subscription service (more on that later). The Hero5 Black now uses USB-C for charging and data transfer, which worked nicely and quickly. That's a definite improvement over the Hero4 Black's one hour and 37 minutes, but it's still behind Sony's action cams which exceeded two hours.
#GOPRO QUIK SUCKS 1080P#
I did a standard rundown test at 1080p and 30 fps (no GPS, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth) and recorded one hour and 56 minutes of video. This does, however, mean your old batteries won't work with the new camera. The battery has been slightly upgraded from 1160mAh to 1220mAh, which you'll want if you have GPS and voice control turned on. It's almost impossible to tell if you're rolling or not when you're looking at the camera in bright light. Also, GoPro replaced its bright LED recording indicator lights with teeny little dinky ones. It's nice to have that option for when you're surfing or snorkeling and can't use the touchscreen.
But fret not! Pressing both buttons together still lets you change all the granular stuff while just looking at the small LCD screen on the front of the camera. Now there's just a side button for toggling power and modes, and a button on top to start and stop recording. Gone is the button of the front of the GoPro, a staple since the first generations. It's a shame they missed it for the launch, since other cameras offer this. You don't get any fancy overlays on your video that show your speed or elevation, though GoPro says its working on a software update. This is the first GoPro that has built-in GPS, but all the GPS can do is geotag the photos you take. If it takes a dunk, the mics eject water extremely quickly. The GoPro's audio is much better that the Virb, though, especially since you don't need to put it inside a waterproof case in wet conditions. Personally, I give 1080p performance more weight because that's what I shoot 90 percent of the time, but if you know you want to be shooting a lot of 4K, that's a compelling case for the Virb. At 1080p and 2.7k, the image is much sharper than the Garmin, but the edge goes to Garmin when shooting at 4K.
