[ad_1] It’s not certain when the Hero 9 Black will ship or how much it will cost, provided the leak is accurate. GoPro has timed recent launches for late summer or early fall, however, so it may just be a matter of weeks before a new model arrives. This could be a particularly important launch. […]

GoPro Labs gives users access to experimental features
[ad_1] “These features may never make it to a camera release, but they’re cool enough and cooked enough to give you a taste,” GoPro wrote. GoPro acquired ReelSteady in March. The software gained notoriety with the drone crowd, which used it to better smooth out their flight videos. Now, the GoPro Labs firmware optimizes the […]
GoPro lays off 200 employees as sales hit hard by coronavirus
[ad_1] GoPro has announced that it will lay off 200 employees or around 20 percent of its workforce due to the coronavirus pandemic. It aims to reduce expenses by about $100 million by switching the majority of its business to a direct-to-consumer model. The company said that Q1 revenue will be less than half of […]
GoPro’s Max gets much-needed 360 time lapse features
[ad_1] With the new firmware, you’ll finally have some form of slow motion in 360 mode, albeit just 60fps (2x). There is a trade off in resolution, too, as you’ll have to shoot in 3K. This might sound a lot, but given Max is essentially two cameras, it’s a relative step down from the standard […]
GoPro’s Media Mod is an upgrade for vloggers on the go
[ad_1] If you ever used GoPro’s Karma grip, the Media Mod will give you deja-vu. Aesthetically, it’s similar to the part that housed the camera. Including the fact you’ll have to remove the GoPro’s battery cover to connect to the USB-C port. That makes sense, but it also means you don’t have easy access to […]
GoPro’s fix for grounded Karma drones is coming ‘within a week’
[ad_1] Numerous operators have been unable to fly since 2020, with the Karma reporting GPS signal and compass calibration issues. One user found a temporary workaround by resetting the controller and disabling the GPS. While the problem at first seemed like a GPS and GLONASS clock rollover issue, GoPro wrote that the issue was related […]
GoPro Karma drones are unable to fly due to a possible GPS flaw
[ad_1] The company told Engadget that “engineering is actively troubleshooting” the problem, but didn’t have more to share. This might be a product of the GPS rollover flaw that has affected numerous devices. Some hardware will reset its GPS date when the associated clock hits 1,024 weeks, throwing off timing and thus location-finding abilities. GoPro […]
GoPro’s first Hero 8 Black ‘mod’ is a light for vloggers
[ad_1] The first to make it out the gate is not the Media Mod (which I am particularly eager to try). Instead, it’s the $50 Light Mod. It might not be quite as exciting as the Media Mod with its built-in shotgun mic, or the LCD Display Mod, but it does give us a (well-illuminated) […]
Can DJI compete against GoPro in the action camera arena?
[ad_1] If you own the DJI Osmo Action, what would you score it? Did it serve your needs? Did you appreciate that front-facing display? Were you also frustrated by the lack of GPS or an HDMI port? Tell us (and your fellow readers) all about this outdoor camcorder with a user review on our Osmo […]
How GoPro makes you want a GoPro
[ad_1] It’s mid-July, and GoPro is shooting its promo for the Hero 8 Black camera that will launch a few months later (that’s today). I was offered a behind-the-scenes look at how the company shoots its most important video of the year, the one it hopes will inspire millions of people to pay $399 for […]
