Hello, everyone, today I've got a comprehensive review of the new GoPro Hero Black 11 for you, along with 17 essential facts.
I've been using it for about a month, and this movie is loaded with side-by-side comparison footage demonstrating the advantages and disadvantages of the many new features.
For starters, the price is the same as last year at $399 if you already have a GoPro subscription or $499 if you don't. However, when you purchase for the $399 with a subscription, it doesn't cost anything extra, and there are some new features we'll talk about later on that leverage the subscription that may be worthwhile considering.
Now, the first technical improvement I've made is a new sensor; it's a one over 1.9 at center, which probably doesn't mean much to you. What should mean something to you, though, is the addition of an eight over seven field of view option; that's right, it's a giant ass square, and the idea behind it, which I'll get into in a second, is that you can crop into that so you can have a vertical one and a horizontal image. the gp2 chipset that gopro debuted last year is still in use.
10-bit color is generally good for editing, but it's considerably more useful for editors after the fact to adjust color and conduct color grading soon we'll be publishing a whole video simply to like footage if you want to look at it. Meanwhile, if you read the description below, you'll discover a Dropbox share with some files that are straight from the camera and completely unedited spoken.
Next, GoPro has incorporated a wider digital lens. Digital lenses are how they examine the many angles that you have. The most recent one is called hyperview, not hyperlapse, which is for things like time lapses and such. It basically takes the new 8x7 square and expands it into a 16x9 frame.
The following step is horizon lock. This was previously only available with the GoPro Max lens mod, but now you can do it directly in camera. To kind of illustrate, here's the camera it's essentially like stabilization plus so it always keeps that horizon perfectly level no matter what the camera is doing and here's another perspective right here again the camera going up rotating over back down and it's always level.
The next thing on the agenda is the GoPro stabilization layer, which is currently on version 5. Every action camera has a massive sensor image, which is cropped down to something like to this, and the camera's internal processing is designed to "bounce about" inside that space in order to maintain image stability. The next type of boost is called ultra smooth boost, and it turns a stable road into a dirt road, then gradually begins to crop back in so that the road may remain stable.
It's simply not super clear at first sight hey just a quick note if you are finding this video immediately beneficial now is an incredible moment to pound the like button it really does help at this video and the channel quite a little thanks so much for watching!
Following that, there are these brand-new and incredible night video options. These are really neat, and there are basically three distinct settings to choose from. The first one is a mode for astrophotography, and it creates an effect similar to star trails, if you will. Simply leaving your camera exposed to the night sky for a few hours will result in the formation of the star-like object that can be seen in the image.
In the vehicle trails mode, you place your camera someplace, but for a much shorter amount of time. For example, the short videos that you see right there were taken by me after I placed the camera for about five to seven minutes just on a highway overpass and watched the cars go underneath. Lastly, there is the light painting mode, which allows you to paint whatever message, sign, or thing you want onto the sky at night, and the camera does it all for you automatically. These are three aspects that are extremely challenging to do on your own if you are choosing still photography as your medium of choice.
As a result of Gopro's recent enhancements to its super view feature, which now offer 5.3k60 and 4k 120 frames per second, the latter of which really helps to demonstrate how valuable the former can be. When you don't quite want to go to hyperlapse, it is my go-to mode, if you will, for any mountain biking, skiing, or other activity of a similar nature.
You'll be able to alter the digital lens after the fact if you use the GoPro Quick app, which means you can shoot wide right now and then crop the image to make it linear, get rid of that fish I glanced at, and you're finished. You will soon be able to export your videos in a variety of aspect ratios thanks to a new update that is being released for the desktop application. When you're flying a drone and using the footage it captures, it's a little bit easier to quickly pop them out in a variety of aspect ratios.
They have also added a slate of new burst modes. I'll put them on the screen here because you don't want me to like audibly repeat all those because it would take forever. The megapixel count of the new GoPro sensors has grown from 23 to 27, and they have also included a slate of new burst modes. Given that you're filming at like 60 to 120 frames per second, the great majority of people these days are just utilizing the app to take a still from video. This allows them to avoid the hassle of trying to capture the precise picture given that you're shooting at such a fast rate.
The battery life and performance of the GoPro Hero 11 have been upgraded for use in cold conditions. In comparison to the previous iteration, they claim that it now has an increased battery run duration of up to 38 minutes. A relatively little amount of the claimed gains in battery life are actually being caused by the camera. It was possible for me to start the camera even after putting the battery in the freezer and leaving it there overnight, which is not possible with a conventional battery.
The GoPro Hero 11 includes a new mode called Easy for first-time users, which makes it simpler to operate the camera when it is turned on for the first time. A complete and in-depth beginner's guide is on its way, and it will be available very soon. The tour will take around 45 to 50 minutes to complete, and it will cover each and every feature that will be linked in a short while above, in the gallery.
Gopro has announced two new video modes, which will take the place of the video performance modes that were created a year ago following the debut of the product due to concerns about the camera overheating. The one and only drawback to this, though, is that you no longer have access to the tripod mode, which was actually quite helpful. I utilized the tripod mode on a Hero 10 camera last weekend to record an hour-long movie outside in the sun with a static mount, and the camera did not turn off once throughout that time. I would be thrilled to find out if the feature is still available.
Today, DJI made the public debut of their brand-new action three camera, and the company emphasized the need of ensuring the device does not become overheated. The most important thing is to have a good awareness of which modes should be used in certain situations, and to make sure that you are not simply keeping the device on in the sunlight for 45 to 50 minutes. This is an example of a use scenario. In such situation, you are going to have to cut the frames per second down from 60 to 30, so that it can continue running.
If you are a subscriber to GoPro, you are going to receive a new auto highlight reel for that full day's worth of film. This means that when you take your camera at the end of the day and plug it in, it will sync all of that information over wi-fi and upload it to the cloud. When all of that is finished, it will select up to 75 clips from that day, merge them with the other footage, and then automatically create an edit for you to see.
It also enables you to delete footage from the camera itself, allowing you to start fresh with a clean SD card. Once it is confirmed that all of the footage has been uploaded to the server, you will receive a message after the fax indicating the amount of space that is still available on your device.
