Priced at $499.99, the Hero4 Black is the most professional-grade model in GoPro’s new product lineup. It also features a redesigned audio system that captures high-defenition audio at two times the dynamic range of previous models.
The Hero4 black also has improved image quality and low-light performance, as well as highlight moment tagging and an improved user interface. Capture modes also include 2.7K video at 50 frames per second, and a new “4K Superview” mode with ultra-wide field of view at a cinematic 24 frames per second.
Like previous models, including the GoPro Hero3+ Black Edition that AppleInsider tested last year, the new GoPro Hero4 will include Wi-Fi connectivity to allow it to be controlled and for content to be viewed from a connected iPhone or iPad. This year’s model also adds a Bluetooth radio for even more capabilities, and connection speeds and power management are said to have been improved.
HERO4 Silver delivers the same professional image quality as HERO4 Black less some of the higher performance video capture modes including 4K30, 2.7K50 and 1080p120. HERO4 Silver includes a brilliant built-in touch display for those who value convenience and ease-of-use over the no-holds-barred performance of the HERO4 Black.
The new HERO4 line will be available October 5 on GoPro.com and at select retailers.
