Linear mode is available in all resolutions up to 4k (previously only up to 2.7k). The lowest resolution now starts at 1080p which means the LIVE streaming also starts at higher res. The new GoPro Hero8 has dropped the 720p and 960p resolutions but who uses those anyways. GoPro has also improved the wind noise filter and promises an even better lifelike sound. Hero8 has new, redesigned mics and now features three powerful microphones. As low light videos and photos have always been the enemy of GoPro cameras there are high hopes on this feature. The sample provided by GoPro does look stunning and the low light performance looks crisp and with very little noise. Or, share a 3-second 4K video clip Night Lapse Video This guarantees you can get you shot as it allows you to pick the perfect one out of 90 still images. It captures images 1.5 seconds before and after you press the shutter button. LiveBurst is a completely new feature and is very similar to the iPhone Live Photo feature. The HDR function delivers a bit better results although I have never been a fan of in-camera HDR. The new algorithm delivers better photos in difficult conditions.
There are small upgrades to the photo editing of the camera and the GoPro Hero8 promises improved quality and more vivid colors. Instead of digging into the menu you can just drag the slider to see the changes in realtime.
It’s nothing new, it’s just much easier to switch between the different fields of view. You can toggle between Narrow, distortion-free Linear, Wide and SuperView. Digital Lensesĭigital lenses mean that the FOV selection has been made easier for you. The Time Warp function also got an update and you can now automatically select the speed or slow down the speed with a tap.It was a pain figuring out the best settings before so now its so much easier – a very welcomed update to the function.
The HyperSmooth feature does not completely replace a GoPro Gimbal though, but it`s a huge step towards it. You can pick between Off, On, High and Boost (The Boost setting crops the most out to stabilize the image). You also have the ability to choose the level of stabilization. It`s not only better than before but now it’s now available in every frame rate or resolution, including slo-mo modes. It offers multiple stabilization settings and an in-app horizon leveling. The digital stabilization of the GoPro called HyperSmooth has been completely revamped and the 2.0 is even better than before. The new Hero is also 14% lighter than the Hero7. You will no longer have the option to replace the lens if you happen to crack it, but GoPro claims the new lens is 2x tougher. It is no longer removable so all your polarizer lenses and your ND filters are useless on the new GoPro Hero8.
