Tencent Digital (compilation: statement) Hero5 Black is GoPro's latest flagship sports camera, and basically can be seen as the best sports camera on the market. Compared with the previous generation, Hero5 Black is not only more compact, but also adds many new features. First, Hero5 Black, like Hero 4 Black, supports 30fps/4K ultra-high-definition video capture, and adds touchscreen display, enhanced waterproof features, and improved recording. In addition, GoPro finally joined the electronic image stabilization system, and also has voice control and GPS positioning capabilities. So it can be said that Hero5 Black has become the best sports camera on the market. Design and accessories Regardless of personal opinion, in Hero5 Black, GoPro seems to have undergone a very radical design change. The style of the entire fuselage has been greatly changed. Of course, such changes are both good and bad, but obviously the benefits outweigh the disadvantages. Hero5 Black retains our familiar rectangular design style and is wrapped in a very popular layer of rubber material with rounded corners. In addition, the change in the overall body size of Hero5 Black means that most of the original accessories and bases are not compatible. For example, the hand-held pan/tilt used on the Hero4 Black before and now can't be used with Hero5 Black. This makes me a bit depressed. Due to the addition of a waterproof shell, Hero5 Black's body is slightly larger than Hero4 Black. The greater change is the thickness, especially considering the protruding lens design. However, the reason for the thickening of the body is understandable, because the addition of a touch screen, and the corresponding Touch BacPac accessories and become incompatible products, need to buy new talents. In addition, the previous generation of Hero4 Black needed to be photographed underwater with the waterproof case fitted, and Hero5 Black itself supports the waterproof feature. Hero5 Black can shoot underwater at a depth of 10 meters. If you need to go deeper, Hero5 Black has to be equipped with a waterproof housing. In order to add water resistance, GoPro not only increases the battery capacity, but also does a better job of sealing the various interfaces. The Hero5 Black is equipped with a USB Type-C and micro-HDMI interface, but to find them, it takes a lot of effort and is covered with a thick layer of waterproof cover and needs to slide open. That's right, this time it finally changed to the USB Type-C interface on Hero5 Black instead of the previous micro-USB interface. And this is a welcome change. Now in the field of smart phones, USB Type-C has become a trend, and even Apple's new MacBook Pro only provides this standard interface, so in Hero5 Black's body Appearance is also reasonable. Removed the extra waterproof case and solved many problems in most scenarios. This is not only convenient, but also ensures that the compact body does not cover the microphone outside, so it can further improve the recording results. Like Hero Session, Hero5 Black is also equipped with dual microphones, one on the front and one on the back, so in the case of wind, different channel recordings can be selected to ensure that noise is filtered out. For example, when we are riding a bicycle, we can choose to turn off the front microphone and turn on another back wind. In terms of weight, Hero5 Black is also 30 grams lighter than its predecessor, so if you install it in a helmet or hang it on the body, it does not really feel. Of course, Hero5 Black does not need to use an additional waterproof case this time, so it will become lighter if it cooperates with the base. In addition, Hero5 Black is also equipped with a new framework that can play a fixed role and is compatible with various third-party accessories. In addition, this framework is actually quite useful in everyday charging, shooting, and time-lapse photography. Compatible with the base, Hero5 Black is quite kind, some of the previous tripods and standard heads can be used, after all, in this standard Hero5 Black and Hero4 Black remain consistent. Overall, I still have a positive attitude towards the design and changes of Hero5 Black. The rubber case is waterproof and corrosion resistant, and I felt for the first time how wonderful it was to shoot Hero5 Black directly without a protective case. At the same time, Hero5 Black's own work is also very good. Operation and screen Another of the most significant changes in the Hero5 Black is that the typical three physical buttons now all disappear, leaving only one shooting mode switch, power button, and shutter button at the top. At the same time there is still a monochrome LCD display on the front, which can quickly display the current status. On the back is a 2-inch touch screen, but the border looks a bit thick. The brightness of the screen is quite enough to see the content outdoors, and the design of the menu and system has also been completely changed, more intuitive than the original, and the touch operation has been added. Basically used feelings and smart phones are a bit similar. For example, swiping from top to bottom can connect a smartphone via Bluetooth or enter preferences. At the same time, you can also choose to lock the touch screen to prevent misoperation when shooting underwater. Swipe left to reveal the media library. All captured content will be presented in a grid. Tap once to go to full screen, switch left or right. The entire operation process is intuitive and smooth, and sliding down can return to the shooting interface. In the shooting interface, swipe to the right for quick shooting settings such as the video stabilization system, ProTune, and adjusting the light. In addition, ProTune mode is now also simplified, providing overall automatic options. For advanced users, including white balance, ISO and color correction, further manual adjustments can be made. The addition of the touch screen makes it easy to change the shooting mode, switching from video and photo shooting to changing the shooting resolution and frame rate. Hero5 Black's menu is now familiar with a few minutes and is more intuitive and efficient than the older models, especially with the Hero4 Black's small screen and button operation. However, the only problem is that the system operation of Hero5 Black will be a little slow and delayed, and the touch response is not as sensitive as I thought. Sometimes this delay can even make people mistakenly thinking that there is no point in the secondary operation. However, I believe this is not a bottom-level issue. It is just a system optimization problem. I hope that it can be resolved through system updates in the future. Perhaps the current touch operation is still a bit complicated for Hero5 Black hardware. The new voice control is full of new ideas. Hero5 Black supports seven different languages. This is a bright spot. We can operate with basic voice commands such as "GoPro start recording", "GoPro pause". However, in a noisy outdoor environment, if you want to use voice control, you have to increase the volume a bit. In addition Hero5 Black also provides an optional voice remote control, which can be more convenient in some scenarios, but I still hope that Hero5 Black can improve the sensitivity of the microphone. On the front of the Hero5 Black monochrome display, we can check the battery capacity, remaining body capacity, and shooting mode. There is also a red LED above as a shooting instruction, and there is also one on the back. With the voice prompts, we can identify whether it is in shooting mode in most scenes, but I still hope that GoPro can add vibration haptic feedback function on Hero5 Black. Especially in some special scenes, the buzzing tone is not easy to hear, but if you shake it on the helmet, you can basically feel it. Finally, Hero5 Black also supports one-touch control and delayed shooting. Press the shutter button to start shooting immediately, and press and hold for 3 seconds to start time-lapse shooting. App and post-processing GoPro developed a smartphone app called Capture for its products that can be linked to a smartphone or tablet via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi. In the case of a Bluetooth connection, which has been continuously connected in a low-power state, and direct Wi-Fi connection, even remote control is possible. This application is quite good when used with Hero5 Black. It is not only intuitive, but also an easy choice to directly edit Hero5 Black's internal videos or photos. At the same time, it also supports capturing pictures directly from 4K ultra-high-definition video as photographs. The live stream function is also very good, although there will be a little delay, but a lot smoother than Hero4 Black. At the same time, it is also possible to remotely change the setting mode of Hero5 Black through the App, and in the App we can choose to quickly stitch the existing video, but currently only supports the iOS platform. The quick editing function allows us to process the video on the phone, including adding background music, adding filters, and selecting different style templates. GoPro also performed better on social media sharing of videos and photos. The types of social networks supported are very rich and can even be shared directly on Instagram. In addition, before sharing, you can further process photos and choose any one you like. Video quality and sound effects Hero5 Black and Hero4 Black both support 4K video capture at 30fps frame rate, 120fps at 1080p, and 240fps/720p slow-motion video capture. As a flagship sports camera, these features are all expected. . The main change in Hero5 Black is the addition of an electronic image stabilization system, but only in 60fps/1080p mode. Above this resolution, the stability feature is automatically turned off. Fortunately, 1080p is enough, and the video effect is also very stable. Hero5 Black is also in place for shooting still images, so in addition to shooting video, Hero5 Black is also a pretty good camera. Hero5 Black not only supports RAW format photo shooting, but also supports HDR dynamic mode, and performs satisfactorily in shadow and detail processing. At the same time, Hero5 Black also supports a little wide-angle shooting mode, but the picture is somewhat unnatural, so it is best to use the post-processing to improve the quality of the photo. Life and charge The battery capacity of Hero5 Black is slightly larger than that of the previous generation. Considering the addition of features such as GPS and touch screen, there is nothing wrong with this. In addition, due to design changes, Hero5 Black's battery is also not compatible with Hero4 Black, so they have to spend money to buy it. In terms of endurance testing, Hero5 Black insisted on 1 hour and 45 minutes shooting at 30fps/1080p quality, which was slightly better than Hero4 Black's 1 hour and 30 minutes. Of course, including Wi-Fi, GPS and electronic stability systems are all turned on. If you disable some features, the battery life should be longer. In the 4K video shooting mode, it is approximately 1 hour of shooting time. It should be noted that Hero5 Black will automatically turn off the display to save power if it takes a long period of continuous shooting, and this design is absolutely very intimate. Of course, if you have an extra spare battery, you can take longer. For charging, as we mentioned before, the Hero5 Black is charging faster via the USB Type-C interface. to sum up Compared with the old models, Hero5 Black has become the best sports camera on the market after adding a series of new features. And the improvement of waterproofness and new design, together with the addition of electronic image stabilization system, make this product capable of shooting excellent quality videos and photos become the first choice for everyone. Another thing worth noting is that Hero5 Black actually costs slightly lower than Hero4 Black when it went public. It costs only 350 pounds (about 2,956 yuan). This is an era when everyone is looking for an excuse to increase prices. Real numbers are rare. advantage Excellent image quality; Increase the electronic image stabilization system; Dual microphone works well; Add 10 meters waterproof function; Photo enhancement; The design has been greatly improved; insufficient Not compatible with old equipment batteries; Electronic image stabilization does not support 4K mode; Source:trustedreviews Back Seat Headrest Pillow Phone Holder Back Seat Headrest Pillow Phone Holder,Samsung Tablet Car Holder Back Seat,Car Back Seat Organiser With Tablets,Car Back Seat Tablet Holder Ningbo Luke Automotive Supplies Ltd. , https://www.nbluke.com
