I remember when H7 was released and their hypersmooth seemed just as perfectly as the H8 shows in this video, which makes me wonder whether the author of this video had been paid to edit/unset this feature on this video - to promote the sellings of H8 instead. Somebody else here said that Gopro might have released a firmware update that downgrades H7 Hypersmoort capabilities. Whatsoever, it just shows you that something here really stinks
I don't think the hyper-smooth was activated on Hero 7. Should have done Hero 7 hyper-smooth on & off as well like you did in hero 8 boost turned on and off.
Hypersmooth was witchcraft on the 7 at release. Now it looks like trash. I feel like it's been handicapped in the firmware so the 8 looks better. I feel like I'm being extorted.
Whoa interesting point. That would be fucked... There was an update in August I did do it I didn't notice anything. What sucks is we probably won't be getting any of the new firmware updates that I'm sure can work perfectly fine on the 8. Dissapointed with gopro brand
You can still do that in post. Imagine this level of stabilization in your camera and you can use it for dolly shots and stuff. It's all about the use case..
But have they addressed their audio issues that have plagued them? What about stuff like picking a focal point? You know all the basic stuff my phone does. Who give a crud about stabilisation when I can't hear what you're saying.
@@corremorre i sold my hero 3 a few years ago to some kid who bought it for $120. the actual value of hero 3 black after depreciation is $40. feels good man
I think the Hypersmooth improvement for the Hero 8 is pretty decent, enough to upgrade if you're into such types of shooting where you need good stabilization. With this, I am seriously considering selling my Hero 7 Black and Gimbal (as I bought an 8 anyway)... (Of course I mainly use my GoPro for hiking in national parks and other areas of interest.) It is too bad that they got rid of the removable front lens cover but luckily they still do offer a case that will cover the front lens cover element to prevent it from getting scratched.
TH-cam did a terrible job compressing the video during the hyperlapse. I bet it looks amazing on your computer though. Great video! The stabilization is impressive
What’s the point of the 2.0 stabilization. Its an action camera, don’t you want to see what it feels like going over bumps or the motion of stuff your doing? The hero 8 it’s too smooth, I get if your vlogging but if you bike, wakeboard anything really it will look like the cool stuff your doing isn’t actually as cool as it is.
I searched for quite a while reading specs about the differences in stabilization and was about to buy a used Gopro 7 - not anymore!!! Thanks for your helpful video.
Do you feel the upgrade to the hypersmooth is worth not having access to the battery? I HATE being out someplace using the camera and the battery die without having a replacement on me. Since the battery is built in, you cant just swap the battery out. I don't hear anyone mention this...
Really disappointed in 8. Stabilization looks exactly the same as the 7. Did side by sides test with hyper smooth on at 2 k 30 frames. Absolutely zero difference.
....I watch your videos faithfully - and half the time I’m usually confused. (Mom of boys here and love tech but clueless on most of it - LOL). Your videos are the BEST! They are so concise and to the point without all of the dramatics like in other videos! Keep up the good work! 👍🏽
So the GoPro 8 is listed on GoPro’s website for $299 right now...Does that mean that if I tradeup I’ll save an additional $100? (On a side note, how is it that when I bought my hero7 the stabilization was as good as it is now on the 8? But now the 7 looks like crap? Planned obsolescence?)
I love it but at the same time me personally, I’m not sure why I would need a go pro to be stabilized at that level. I use mine for car Vlogging mostly. What I’m really waiting for is a sensor upgrade. That’s when I spend the money.
...but you don't have interchangable lens cover on hero 8, that will make it paperweight in case of falling down or in crash and suddenly why in all videos hero 7 footage starts appearing "shaky" while it was very smooth at time launch....may be those firmware updates did some trick on all hero 7 that exists...
I got out of the GoPro race after #3 or #4...looks like it may be time to jump back in with the 8...would love to see some footage of one strapped to a Harley, don’t know if anything can compensate for HD vibration.
I don't understand.. You're video is saying night and day difference in boost mode from 7 to 8.. But you don't state whether this is with hypersmooth turned on or off in each scenario? Correct me if I'm wrong? Maybe boost on *implies* Hypersmooth on??
Per some of my previous comments I was not going to upgrade, but just maybe now ... BTW Would you please provide a link to that dual testing case in the next video?
im sorry but are you even using 1080p hyper on the go pro 7 :') seriously cant be that exteme, cuz it was extreme from the 6 to the 7black for the hyper on
So with the 7 I could use on my dash in my truck for hours cause I could keep it plugged in with the USB port on the outside of the camera. Is that possible with the 8 cause the Ian port is in with the battery now and has open the cover to get to it. Won’t the battery fall out or can it be used by removing the battery and plugging it in while on my dash
Ok, ok, I’ve changed my mind now, having already dismissed the hero 8 due to the built in lens glass, I am blown away by the stabilisation! Yes it crops in a fair bit but it needs to to obtain a clean frame path, but the shake test and R/C chassis test were incredible. I have attached various GoPro’s to R/C cars in the past and have been nothing but disappointed with the footage, this is superb and I’ve just ordered one!
@@CineZoneYT I'm still to test it properly, initial thoughts are it's build is not as good as old GoPro's, feels a bit plastic fantastic to me, I hate the built in lens, already ordered a protector but that only protects from scratches. However the stabilisation is the reason I got it and will be testing it tomorrow, got R/C car and my son on his bike/scooter to test. Weather shit here today so just watching the rain fall.
Holy crap! That's pretty amazing. I love my GP 7 but that just blew me away. Is it worth re-investing? For now, probably not. But if I was going from nothing-all the way up to GP6? Absolutely spend the couple extra bones for it. I'll keep my GP7 for now as it is serving me well. Great review, many thanks!
Can someone tell me how soon the price of the Hero 8 be discounted? History has it that after some months, the price falls! After all the hype of when it is just released. I will wait a bit when the current price is like over $100 off.
I’ve uploaded a running video with the Hero8 and head mount. Not 100% happy with the results but still testing. What setting did you use in the boost clips? It would help me.
The point is that the Gopro8 Crops as a hell!! It's no more a wide angle camera... This is not a real stabilizer...it's more Cropping. Look at 1:57 and compare the image with the Gopro7...
People saying that they made the hypersmooth worse on the 7 but be aware because these youtubers are testing the hypersmooth with extreme conditions so we can see the difference
Question. Does hypersmooth affect play back on the rear display, or only upon download? I received my 8 yesterday and with HS 2.0 ON or OFF there was no difference when viewing through playback on rear display. I tried several different resolutions and frame rates.
it's not a fully fair comparison as the hero 7s camera lens position is more to the left than hero 8s camera position is to the right. So when you're shaking the hero 7s lens is moving much more than the 8.
Just found your Ch and great content! Just ordered the 8 as a beginner. Can you make a beginners guide like you did for the 7 and recommend some editing software for Mac user? All settings have changed
Yes I do plan on making a beginners guide hopefully in the next few weeks. As for software for a Mac I am really not sure I’m not a Mac user myself. I edit all my videos on my iPad Pro both for TH-cam and personal
Thanks for the test! The 8 is obviously superior in stabilization, and dynamic range, but when there's a difference in how the blue of blue skies is rendered, I prefer the 7 as it's not artificially turquoise looking (I don't like to be bothered with the extra hassle of colour grading lol). The fact that the lens cover on the 8 is not replaceable is a big deal too, meaning if it picks up a scratch (likely being an action camera!) the camera is basically junk because GoPro do not offer repair for this. Conundrum. Maybe I'll just have to upgrade my 3+ black (lens scratched when it vibrated off the bridge over the Yellowstone river and hit the tarmac face first, so now into the light shots have flare from the scratch), and just keep using my gimbal with the 7.
I was thinking to save some money by getting the 7 black.. I was wonder how big of a difference it will make anyway.. This video made it ultra clear.. Can't even look at the 7 now :) Thanks for the awesome video btw!
Nice to see that comparison, but the hero 8 seems to be mounted closer to rotation center in the frame. Better for handling the movments I asume. So the hero 7 gets bigger movementsbased on that. One question I have, how does the hero 8 handle cold? I have a hero 6 and that didn’t like cold at all. I bought a Osmo action to try to see if it can handle that better. If it’s not better I’m thinking of testing the hero 8 instead.
Why is it when I see comparison videos for the say hero 5 against the 7.. the 7 never moves and is amazing... But now that the 8 is out the 7 looks like the 5..??? I'm completely confused lol
How the heck do you label your custom shooting settings? I see a spot where you can make a new setting but no keyboard pops up where I can rename it with whatever I want. Am I missing something?
Yes it is called the gopole triad. I’ve added a link to it in the description of the video. It’s a handy little rig great for adding lights and microphones or like I use it for mounting multiple cameras
Is this supposed to be an overall comparison of the two? If so it was just about stabilization with a quick take on some hyperlapse feature. As of now the 7 is $329 and 8 is not on sale at $399.
I'm torn between the smoothness on the 8, vs the more immersive wide angle on the 7th. I mainly just want a GoPro to take on travels for walking shots for my own memories, which do you think is better?
I want to go out and buy one today but why should I pay so much for issues like having to reboot the damn thing because it freezes? How can I capture the action if I'm kneeling down re inserting the battery 😂
not anymore the hypersmooth high is the same crop as the hypersmooth 1.0 in the hero 7 and the BOOST stabilization is for those who wants a cinematic shoot
That was great - thank you! I have a Hero 7 Black with Karma Grip - should I upgrade? I don't know if you have access to a Karma Grip, but it would be interesting to see how the Hero 8 Black does relative to the Hero 7 Black in a Karma Grip. The Hero 8 Black is amazingly good - I would not want to guess which is more stable.
The hero seven black is an excellent camera. If you’re happy with it I don’t know if it’s really worthwhile the upgrade. I do find the stabilization 8 When boost is turned on to be exceptional. I finally gets rid of a lot of that up-and-down motion that can be present on the gimbal. When I get a chance maybe I’ll do a side-by-side comparison
Nah! I’ll wait until the gopro11 comes out
u wait until gopro hero 10000
I'll wait for gopro 11 so I can buy gopro 3 lmao

Somebody else here said that Gopro might have released a firmware update that downgrades H7 Hypersmoort capabilities. Whatsoever, it just shows you that something here really stinks
Even the colors seem more alive on the H8 side... So I feel like the video was baked to promote H8 sellings...
The fact that he hasn't answered your comment speaks volumes. Yup, I think that you are right!
I've the same thinking about it, since their show that H7 shaky to much like a cheap action cam.
How much 8 black
It's only 60$ difference. I don't think there is a discussion here on what to buy...
I don't think the hyper-smooth was activated on Hero 7.
Should have done Hero 7 hyper-smooth on & off as well like you did in hero 8 boost turned on and off.
Good efforts for this unique comparison. I am still satisfied with go pro 7 because I bought it a weak before launch of go pro 8 😁 Thanks again dear
Royal Soldier 🇮🇳 you are not satisfied actually. You are regret

You r so stupid

I know I'm kind of off topic but do anyone know a good website to stream new movies online?
Hypersmooth was witchcraft on the 7 at release. Now it looks like trash. I feel like it's been handicapped in the firmware so the 8 looks better. I feel like I'm being extorted.
Yeah, DJI has a tendency to do that also. Sucks... but I still want to invest in the 8.

Have to agree, although I've already parted with my money for the 8. It's our own fault!
They can't give ya free firmware goodies....
They gotta make money bruh....
Gopro families need to eat and have a roof on top
Hypersmooth just because the Hero8 Cropping is HUGE... It's no more a Wide Angle Camera. look at 1:57 ...
You need some movement to make things look real. Hero 7 black is staying in my camera case for me!
A good observation. Movement yes! Shake and jitter no
Agreed. As an RCer, I was disappointed in the X Maxx footage with the 8. It took away all of the vehicle motion.
I agree
You can still do that in post. Imagine this level of stabilization in your camera and you can use it for dolly shots and stuff. It's all about the use case..
Nice me to
Actually one of the most useful TH-cam videos I’ve ever seen. Thanks for posting!
I do appreciate the stability it provides but it almost takes away from the scene. Like I want to know the person is on a bumpy trail somewhat.
While the stabilisation is fantastic in the 8 I think the 7 retains that factor of immersion.
I wonder what other improvements GoPro will make on the hero 9.
But have they addressed their audio issues that have plagued them? What about stuff like picking a focal point? You know all the basic stuff my phone does.
Who give a crud about stabilisation when I can't hear what you're saying.
I was happy with my 7 black until watching this!
Hero 7 Is an excellent camera. Some of the tests I did were kind of extreme and you wouldn’t really notice that under normal use conditions.
So true
if you're happy with it don''t worry! then it's good enough. and you can always sell it and get 8 too

The Hero 8 Black is amazingly good - I would not want to guess which is more stable.
The hero seven black is an excellent camera. If you’re happy with it I don’t know if it’s really worthwhile the upgrade. I do find the stabilization 8 When boost is turned on to be exceptional. I finally gets rid of a lot of that up-and-down motion that can be present on the gimbal. When I get a chance maybe I’ll do a side-by-side comparison
Is it me? But on the car when hitting a bump, it looked like hero 8 went digital at the bottom?
What is the name of that mount you have on your RC car?
Nice comparison. What is that setup you have that holds the 2 cameras?
I wonder how long the battery lasts? Is it as weak as in version 7?
