Its good and all, but honestly TH-cam kind of limits the quality of video where you cant really see the difference. That being said, when you look at raw footage straight from the camera to your pc; It looks a whole lot better.
Good comprehensive and honest review! Just as an FYI, if you turn sharpening to low in protune it helps the look of the 240fps. Also in Quik if you go into the clip settings of any individual video clip there's a duplicate button which will copy the clip over. Lastly I might expect some of that purple fringing look to be fixed in software update in the coming weeks. Heard there may be some minor tweaks coming in a small update.
Thanks Abe! It's always great hearing the comments - because I only have a limited time with the product, so I can't investigate every nuance. I'm learning a lot more about the product through everyone's comments and hopefully the other viewers are as well. Thanks again!
Hey, I'm using Quik for over a year now and you can split videos easily and then re-arrange to cut between two videos. The cuts are based on the music, and after a couple of edits you know how to mangle it to get a decent result. You can also mix in non-GoPro Video. I love it to do preview cuts of something I might want to edit further ... and the time for a Quik video is for me about half an hour ... while doing the same in Premiere takes me 3-4 hours (yes with abetter result) but sometimes you want to share quickly
Thanks for your insights, Frank! I was told that Quik was a new feature, and had never heard about it before. Great that you were able to figure out how to get the most out of the app. Certainly it's baked in transitions are a huge timesaver. It's a great app, and I hope your comments/insights reach our viewers.
I've just got done filming with the Hero6 and comparing it to the Original Hero HD, Hero3 Black, Hero 3+ Black, Session (H4), Hero4 Silver, Hero5 Session, and the Hero5 Black. I also filmed with the Hero5 Black and Hero6 in the Karma Grip and also with both with the GoPro Color and Flat profiles. Obviously I have a lot of footage and editing to do but hope to have some videos up soon. Looking at what I've got, the Hero6 is clearly in a class by itself. It's soooo good.
So would you recommend hero6 with karma? or is the karma grip unnecessary anymore, because hero6 has its internal stabilizer? Or would hero5+karma grip do the job?
all the gopro's had a base ISO of 100 as well, not just the hero 6. It's just that you can choose a minimun ISO in the hero 6, but you couldn't choose that before.
have they sorted all the software issues, I stopped using GoPro altogether as the WiFi connection to the Phone is super unreliable and often requires an Internet connection to use it at all (when GoPro decides to log you out randomly) this cost me a lot of footage as we often don't have internet connection for days
THANKS GUYS FOR THIS EPIC AND AWESOME VIDEO!!! 💗💗AND FOR EXPLAINING IN PERFECT EASILY-UNDERSTANDABLE TERMINOLOGY! I FEEL SO MUCH REAL GRATITUDE BECAUSE I REALLY APPRECIATE ALL OF YOUR WORK SO MUCH! 😍😍THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
The right arrangement of exposure compensation, ISO and WB is touchy between Hero 4 and Hero 5. So I expect some of the unexpected color discrepancies you mention at minute thirteen are explained in the combination of these parameters between Hero 5 and Hero 6. I harmonize with Steve Hutchesson who wrote this above "tweaking the gamma in post editing up to 1.3 solves the contrast range so all in all, the Hero 5 black works OK if you massage it slightly" Yes massaging the images can get you there. Also I swear the Gopro studio software, when converting the the Cine format, alters the color as well.
when I first look at the new Hero 6 I asked myself "where is the optical image stabilisation?where is the 100mbs bitrate?and may a larger sensor.." I am glad to see from your video that the GoPro,for the first time after the Hero4,has made improvements.At last..thanks for the vid.
Hi Tippy. I don't know - but I will say the stability in this video was all done handheld - no external stabilization. So if you didn't find it stable enough, then get the grip. If you found it stable to your liking, then you don't need the grip!
I have a Hero5 and Hero6. For the H5 the Karma Grip is a must. For the Hero6, you can get away without the extra stabilizer. The stabilization on the Hero6 is amazing.
Sad to say I have just bought a Hero 5 Black but I am very pleased with the linear mode for 2.7k and 1080. Stabilisation is so so but I aim to get a wearable gimbal. A polarising filter improved the "white out" effect in very bright sunlight and tweaking the gamma in post editing up to 1.3 solves the contrast range so all in all, the Hero 5 black works OK if you massage it slightly. 4k looks great but the file size kills it for posting on the internet as many don't have the bandwidth to watch it. Thanks for the revue, useful and informative.
Great review. I use gopro for photographing electrical storms in places I cannot put my dslr. Can you do raw timelapse with the hero6? Also What is the best quality ISO for the hero? Usually I would assume 100 but I understand the gopro maybe normalised around 400 iso?
Would you then recommend hero6 + karma grip? or is hero6 stable enough that it doesn't need the karma grip? Or will hero5+karma grip do the job? Is the additional $100 worth it?
Awesome video,I ride dirtbikes and upload videos onto facebook what would you recommend 1080 at 24 30 or 60 fps or 2.7 at 24 30 or 60 only reason why I ask is I did some tests and found 1080 at 660frs look very clean and stable compared to 2.7k at 30fps,
I agree with you, on every point actually. The 240fps could be better, but GoPro really did have to move away from being limited to cropped 720p at 240fps. I think GoPro is finally moving forward, and taking the right steps.
You're welcome! They really are! If GoPro keeps the 2x increments per year, by 2019, we could see up to 1000fps video! The 1000fps video would most likely be aliased, but that is still really good! We could even see 1080p at 480fps as early as just next year, with better 1080p240 and stabilization. I do wish the microphones were a bit better on this camera as well, but for a camera this cool, it's ok with me.
Thanks for the review. Did you capture that sunset scene on the Hero5 as well? I think similar scenes on my Hero5 look better than that image from the 6. I would love to see the comparison. Also, was there purple fringing in the same spots on the Hero5 or just the Hero6? I have never noticed it on the 5. Thanks, again!
Hi Rory, Thanks for your comment! I did shoot the same shots on the 5 - but didn't bother posting because from my position the photos looked pretty much identical (in the RAW). So it seemed like it would add unnecessary length to the video when I can just say "Hero 5 photos looked the same."
Vistek | Your Visual Imaging Experts Thanks for clarifying. That's weird. I've never noticed the purple fringing on the 5 and thought it handled scenes like sunsets better than the clips you showed. We'll see how the 6 does, but so far it doesn't seem like the smash hit that GoPro needs.
I want to buy the hero6 but heard it has terrible noise in low light (worst than the hero5). It's a common issue people are talking about. GoPro claims they will fix it in a update in November. Any news about this?
its misleading since both cameras can record at the same setting and also where your doing the shoots around 4.19 youre not saying which setting are you using in both cameras. Idk bro , thanks anyway. peace
Hi CK - I think I did them both in 1080p for when I'm walking and talking. I wanted them to both be stable and the same resolution. The bike stuff was shot in a tonne of random frame rates and resolutions. If there was no caption then the shots were Hero 6, but I didn't bother mentioning frame rates. I didn't want to unnecessarily over-caption the video.
Very interesting test, especially the parts where facing the sun. In some resolutions, my Hero5 Black fails badly and blows out the whole image. Could you please tell us about the HEVC and the Gopro app? gopro.com/help/articles/block/hevc If we record in HEVC, there will be no live preview in the gopro app - even on most recents smartphones? I'm already unsure whether my Galaxy Note 4 would handle the H265 files but if I were to get a Note 8 and still be unable to get a live preview in HEVC, that would be a bit of a drawback.
Vistek - Great job on this video! It has all the topics I was looking for explained thoroughly. My largest question would be how does the H6 handle on dusk-night adventures? Such as hikes, bicycling, and motorcycle riding? How does the different ISO limits hold up n those kind of low light, high action/input scenarios?
Thanks John! I was quite impressed with it's dusk performance (as you can see in the video during the high ISO test section). I would probably stick to 24/30fps though. You're likely going to to lose dynamic range at higher FPS, and of course the ISO will bump up because it will need much more light to gain exposure.
Hi J, I was hand holding the two GoPros. They were attached to an articulating arm. Mostly it was footage from the 6, unless they two screens were up detailing which camera was which.
Thanks for your most informative and honest review, I am intrigued by the GP Hero 6 - I have a 4 black and am disappointed in the 1080 at 120fps for the same reasons you mentioned now in the 6...ugly aliasing especially when the light is not great. The 3 black and 4 black both seem to be optimum at 1080 x 60fps... and the push to higher was overdriving the capabilities...where does the Hero 6 sit in your opinion...Can we make the call that the video 1080 at 120fps is optimum or equal to the quality of the 60fps on the earlier GoPros? Would love to hear your thoughts..thanks. :-)
Hi Jolious, I'll be honest, I have limited experience with GoPros. I used the 3s and 4s when I worked in television for in car stuff, and always found them annoying. It wasn't until the 5 (and the review I did) that I actually spent enough time with one. So, i dunno - maybe I'm too easily impressed with the 6. I really think it's a big leap - especially with stability. I quite liked the 120fps quality. I'm sure if you pixel peep, there is probably some artifacts there, or if you did it in low light - but in 99% of situations I personally think it's great.
Can the GPS stuff in the Hero 5 be switched off, and is it possible for someone to track it even when off, just like on a mobile phone? Because I've seen some soldiers wearing these and if the GPS can give their location away...not worth it.
If you could get a lightly used GoPro 5 for $150 or a new GoPro 6 for $399, which would you choose? The enhanced image stabilization in the 6 would be nice, but is it worth $250?
I'm deciding on getting a GoPro but i don't know if i should get the HERO 5 or 6; this video definitely helped a lot. I'm basically using it for marching band, just recording myself on the drum set, and casual videos like family trips. I don't know if it's worth it to spend the 100 for the HERO 6 but I'm tempted too because the audio and the stabilization is better and i feel like that would help with what i using the GoPro for. What do you think is better for me?
Hi Chitchard - I think that depends on how much vibration your marching and drumming is going to cause. You might benefit greatly from the new stability. If the camera is not attached to you, but just a tripod - then perhaps the new features aren't nearly as important.
I thought the same thing when I had it on the timeline, but when I looked closer - the footage is correct. The videos are not swapped. Maybe that addresses some additional color shift at higher ISOs. Dunno. Kinda surprising.
Thanks - great footage. Finally a great cam, but $500 for a cam which is at about same level as SJ6 legend while the GoPro 5 for $400 is way behind the SJ6 legend? The most I hate at my GoPro 5 is the poor stabilization and so much '"fog' in the corners compared to the SJ6.
Seems Hero 6 has an enormous annoyng stability software issue. When you try to keep the holding steady it's extremely good, but once you pan, slide or you make slow movements image twiches violently. What do you think?
Hi Matteo - I never experienced any of those issue, except I may have noticed the pan glitch a couple times. I think there is something happening there - but it only seemed to happen in isolated moments. I found that I could mostly pan without it happening. There are several shots in the video of controlled pans without the issue. I think it requires more testing to see what brings out this effect. Thanks for your comment/question!
I want to get a go pro but I'm not going to be trying to make movies or commercials but film family videos, with that said should I just get the 5 instead of the go pro 6?
No. The 5 is not good. Image stabilization was lousy. I don't think it will be good for your purpose (I'm not sure the 6 will be either - though it's reportedly better...I'll know better when mine arrives tomorrow).
I did briefly, but I wasn't happy with what I shot, and it looked identical (pretty much) to the stuff I pulled out of the 5, so I didn't bother putting it in the video or even mentioning it.
Hey nice useful video… i have read all the reviews of all go pros 5,6 & sony action cams …just wanted 2 clear some doubts …if u may 1. Is there any Image (photo ) quality difference between hero 5 session vs hero 5 black vs hero 6 blk vs sony as50 vs fdrx3000…..yes video n features diff is world apart but what about photos only (image quality)…did not find any review or comments on this. 2. Wts ur take hero 5 session vs Sony hdr as50 ..again 1st photo image quality advise then overall
Hi Sumedh, I did a review of the 5 vs the Sony - I encourage you to look for that on our channel. As for photo quality - I didn't see any difference in the 5 vs 6. I also find the image quality of the Sony vs GoPro comparable. I'm not familiar with the as50 though.
This is a great review! Would love your opinion ... do I buy the hero 6 sometime soon or do i wait and see how Sony responds to their competition? (clearly the little RXO is going to be killing go pro anytime soon). Do you think a new FDRX 4000 or something along that line will be coming out in 2018?
The RXO is a very different product with a different market, but interesting none the less. I can't answer your question - because it would require speculation, which I'm not in the business of doing. Chasing technology is a tough thing. I always believe that you should buy the thing you need now. Hope that helps! -D
funny cuz i just bought the hero 5 black mainly cuz i couldnt afford the 6. but now im considering taking it back and paying the balance to get the newest one. Seems like its got a nice look to it, but then again i dont really focus on 4k. my edit software doesnt really do good in 4k and ontop of that i dont have the best internet so uploading 4k video would take along time. maybe just the 5 is fine.
You said it doesn't stabilise at 4K 60 and 1080 240 but does it stabilise at 4K 30p? I know you mentioned it does it at 24 but does it shoot 30 frames stable ?
Thanks for all the good info. I almost bought a Hero 5 until they released the 6 model. I watched some videos like yours for quick research to save time answering personal questions. I am buying within two days, thanks. I still have concerns of water intrusions into the lens cap and side cover when using the camera bare, (without the super suit). Other people have reported water leakage in still water, (in home fish tanks, etc...), with the Hero 5. I will be surfing, scuba diving for lobster and spearfishing. The good action is 30 ft deep or less and at the surface, (so to speak), with surfing. With all the other improvements, I will compensate for in the water issues that may come up. I am going 4K on my pc soon and will utilize all the features. I also am a youtuber and will be showing my sports endeavors online. Sincerely, CapnStevo.
If you are going to be dunking the gopro and in saltwater as well, get another case. It is waterproof out of the box, but i would recommend extra protection for dunking.
AUDIO QUESTION. Hero5 black had terrible audio and did they work on it? Is it better? Did you record directly in your HERO6 with the ugly Gopro Audio-Adapter, or something different?
Hi Pedro. The audio seemed identical to the 5. I did an audio test in my Hero 5 review, so I saw no need to do one for the 6. That said, audio will likely remain marginal on all action cameras. It's just simply a limit of the technology and the end-use. This is why I recorded separate audio during the walk/talk.
ohhh dammn. So many problems with gimbals and Hero5. Terrible noise. How did you record the audio? Just totally off the cam with a recorder? I did that, but you have to synch.
All audio not on the walk/talk was off the camera. All audio during the walk/talk was a lav mic into an H4N. So yes, had to sync audio. Not the most difficult thing to do as long as you don't have to sync lots of clips. I recorded everything in the walk/talk in one take - so it was easy for me.
Thanks Ice. Yeah, sorry about that - actually - it is in there... just hidden. The clip with the purple fringing is 4K 60p (downres'd to 1080). The 60fps is nice, just not stabilized.
The only real stabilization is when you use a Gimbal. The only difference I see is more contrast on the hero6 but that's not necessarily always a good thing since shadows are darker. What is more important is accurate color reproduction.
Sony FDR-3000 simply destroys any gopro camera at stabilization and external microphone, but especially at the stabilization. To bad that Sony has issues with the image focus.
Hi Nick. Yes you are correct. I chose to not upload a 4K version to youtube. I have my reasons for doing this, which I explained in another comment. I encourage you to seek that out below for a more indepth response.
Yi 4K+ $339.98 Hero6 $499. Hardy half the price for a camera that doesn't have all the features of Hero6. Yi 4K+ requires a waterproof (audio coffin), doesn't have as good color profile or Protune. If you scratch the lens on Yi 4K+ you're screwed. On Hero6 the protective lens comes off easy and is cheap to replace. Hero6 has auto on voice activation, GPS, is waterproof WITHOUT a case, auto cloud updating, responsive and bright rear LCD, RAW and HDR photo, amazing image stability, night photo/ night laps, Selective Spot metering/ light balance, Protune audio and Stereo or Wind Resistance, Protune video and photo with adjustable ISO and shutter, and Quik Story. Yi 4K+ is a good camera but it's not nearly as good as Hero6 and not that much lower in price.
Hi Video Active. It's Elena Fariselli and the song is called Bounce. It's licensed through Artlist. I found the music video for the song here: th-cam.com/video/XeS1NYncZw4/w-d-xo.html
I haven't seen too many videos on Hero6 and its features being tested on Android or PC. I heard there were some compatibility issues, can anyone confirm this? I am looking to buy one soon.
You're correct. I didn't notice the smudge in the top left corner until I started editing and it was too late to re-shoot. I did put up a caption at one point alerting people to it.
Not only top left, but this is what I notice on most of the Hero 5 videos on YT. Most users seem to have this problem. Hence no grease or dirt I think ....
Thanks for the vid, you forgot to show us the zoom capability and the image quality when zooming. I heard is a digital zoom so i dont really expect too much of a quality but im just curious.
There's a zoom function? Hmmm... I wasn't aware. It's not surprising considering it's easy to do with 4K output. That said, the zoom function wasn't in any of the literature I was given, and not noted in the menu or app.
I tested it on my Hero 6 today, there's a zoom function! It's digital zoom, but in 4k it doesn't desecrate the quality too badly. Still would recommend staying fixed zoom though
The video mentions that the 6 has some color fringing has nothing to do with blooming, these are 2 totally seperate aspects. Color fringing does occur in the 6 and NOT in the 5 as can be seen in other comparison video's here on TH-cam. Also, to my humble eyes it doesn't look like the 6 actually has a higher dynamic range at all. It seems to be no more than just a slightly different tweaking of brightness & contrast or exposure as this video shows in the parking lot scene : the grey cars at the right at 4m21s become almost black with the 6 while the 5 renders these more acurately grey. I don't see any proof of a higher dynamic range...?
Oh by the way color fringing is usually due to optical distortion (lens quality?). So either the hero 5 has the same lens but uses software correction to reduce/eliminate color fringing OR the hero 6 simply has a lens that is of lower optical quality compared to the hero 5. Either way : the problem is not visible in the 5 while it is clearly visible in the 6.....that's not improvement.
I'm saying that where there was a clear difference you went with side by side and where they were both bad you went with quick cuts and edits to confuse the viewer.
Hi S LeBleu, I'm sorry to hear that you felt my editing was done to confuse or mislead the viewer. I had like, a day to edit this. When you have a day you don't have the luxury of a fine-tuned edit. My first question that I ask myself is "is this watchable," and I'll be the first to admit this video straddles the line of that. No edits were done with any narrative attempt to hide information or mislead the viewer. In my opinion there is nothing to hide - it's a $500 GoPro camera, why do I care if one camera looks bad or not? Cutting between the two was done when I felt that what I was talking about merited the comparison, going to one was used when I felt like it wasn't. Every time I go to a single, it's a HERO 6. This is functionally a HERO 6 video. So if you see a single shot filling the frame, it's a HERO 6. I hope this answers your question and clears up any confusion viewers may have. Thank you.
Thanks for the vid, really informative and gives some great examples of video quality. I wish you had addressed the audio quality as this is where GoPro is a joke. I'm guessing you were using an external mic or at the very least you were not using the Karma Grip. The audio with the GoPro 5 in the Karma Grip is an absolute joke. We have to pay $450 for the Karma Grip in Australia and only to find out the audio is totally flawed when in the Grip. Are you able to address this in another video please, it would be appreciated. I am not about to fork out $280 more for the 6 (price diff between 6 & 5) if the audio is the same in the Karma Grip. Thanks bud.
Thanks Darren. Really appreciate the comment. I'll be honest with you - there are a couple good reasons I don't address audio. #1 is that save for some radical audio invention - action camera audio will never be good out of camera. Mild improvements, maybe. But "good"... likely never. It's just a matter of how sound capture works, where the camera's microphone is relative to what's driving the sound (voice, etc). It's also a tiny camera that doesn't have the space to fit in proper microphone components, or preamps. At some point the consumer has to understand that there is a significant tradeoff with using tiny cameras. I personally think the audio out of the 5 & 6 is great considering what type of camera it's coming out of. I have noticed a great improvement over older or 1-3rd gen action cameras. The 2nd reason I didn't do an audio test in this video is because I did one in our Hero6 vs Sony X3000 video. The audio in the 5 appears to be identical to the 6 - so, I didn't feel the need to be redundant. As for the Karma grip - I'll be honest, I'm not familiar with it as the other commenters/users are. I'm sure it's a great device - but what makes the 6 so good in my opinion is that it does away with the need for extra stabilizers etc. I never used one on this video - using only the internal stability and hand holding the cameras. I was quite impressed with it - and to just throw the camera in your pocket without any additional gack seems like a pretty big deal to me. I know many people won't agree with me - but grab and go functionality means wide market appeal and I think GoPro is pretty smart this way. I hope I've shed some light on your question, or at the very least ... my rather subjective opinion. - D
I do have a question for whoever can answer it. Does the hero 6 truly have all the features that the hero 5 has but improved and a few extra to go along as well? Even the voice control feature?
Hi There. Yes it's improved in most of it's feature set, but voice control seems to be the same. I don't feel that voice control needed to be improved though. -D
Vistek | Your Visual Imaging Experts ok thanks! I really probably will only use the voice control once to take a video from the inside of a guitar to see what it looks like. Stay Awesome!
I just want to mention that I got a Hero4 Silver and Quick works just fine so not just for 6, downloads the videos and does the edit musc etc just wanted to clarify this.
Sorry, you can't. That's not how slow motion works on any camera. There are some apps like After Effects that can help to fake it, but it's no replacement for shooting at a proper high frame rate.
For a person who has never owned a gopro and looking to buying one, the 6 definitely looks better imo
I don't think that difference between 5 and 6 is worth 200€.
The picture is far brighter with the Hero 5 than 6.
Its good and all, but honestly TH-cam kind of limits the quality of video where you cant really see the difference. That being said, when you look at raw footage straight from the camera to your pc; It looks a whole lot better.
Good comprehensive and honest review! Just as an FYI, if you turn sharpening to low in protune it helps the look of the 240fps. Also in Quik if you go into the clip settings of any individual video clip there's a duplicate button which will copy the clip over. Lastly I might expect some of that purple fringing look to be fixed in software update in the coming weeks. Heard there may be some minor tweaks coming in a small update.
Thanks Abe! It's always great hearing the comments - because I only have a limited time with the product, so I can't investigate every nuance. I'm learning a lot more about the product through everyone's comments and hopefully the other viewers are as well. Thanks again!
Thanks for the tips Abe!
I remember hanging out in your office when my Aunt worked there. Glad to see you're making a presence on TH-cam
Thank you!
Hey, I'm using Quik for over a year now and you can split videos easily and then re-arrange to cut between two videos. The cuts are based on the music, and after a couple of edits you know how to mangle it to get a decent result. You can also mix in non-GoPro Video.
I love it to do preview cuts of something I might want to edit further ... and the time for a Quik video is for me about half an hour ... while doing the same in Premiere takes me 3-4 hours (yes with abetter result) but sometimes you want to share quickly
Thanks for your insights, Frank! I was told that Quik was a new feature, and had never heard about it before. Great that you were able to figure out how to get the most out of the app. Certainly it's baked in transitions are a huge timesaver. It's a great app, and I hope your comments/insights reach our viewers.
True that, I've been using it for a while now with my gopro5. I love it but I wonder if I can use my own music instead
I've just got done filming with the Hero6 and comparing it to the Original Hero HD, Hero3 Black, Hero 3+ Black, Session (H4), Hero4 Silver, Hero5 Session, and the Hero5 Black. I also filmed with the Hero5 Black and Hero6 in the Karma Grip and also with both with the GoPro Color and Flat profiles. Obviously I have a lot of footage and editing to do but hope to have some videos up soon. Looking at what I've got, the Hero6 is clearly in a class by itself. It's soooo good.
So would you recommend hero6 with karma? or is the karma grip unnecessary anymore, because hero6 has its internal stabilizer? Or would hero5+karma grip do the job?
all the gopro's had a base ISO of 100 as well, not just the hero 6. It's just that you can choose a minimun ISO in the hero 6, but you couldn't choose that before.
really awesome rundown.. greatly appreciate the effort guys. Sub'd!
Thank you Scott!
have they sorted all the software issues, I stopped using GoPro altogether as the WiFi connection to the Phone is super unreliable and often requires an Internet connection to use it at all (when GoPro decides to log you out randomly) this cost me a lot of footage as we often don't have internet connection for days
THANKS GUYS FOR THIS EPIC AND AWESOME VIDEO!!! 💗💗AND FOR EXPLAINING IN PERFECT EASILY-UNDERSTANDABLE TERMINOLOGY! I FEEL SO MUCH REAL GRATITUDE BECAUSE I REALLY APPRECIATE ALL OF YOUR WORK SO MUCH! 😍😍THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
Thank you Julie!
The right arrangement of exposure compensation, ISO and WB is touchy between Hero 4 and Hero 5. So I expect some of the unexpected color discrepancies you mention at minute thirteen are explained in the combination of these parameters between Hero 5 and Hero 6. I harmonize with Steve Hutchesson who wrote this above "tweaking the gamma in post editing up to 1.3 solves the contrast range so all in all, the Hero 5 black works OK if you massage it slightly" Yes massaging the images can get you there.
Also I swear the Gopro studio software, when converting the the Cine format, alters the color as well.
Where/how did you mount it at 2:03?
Hi Louis - it's been a while, but I think it was just a clamped articulating arm with a 1/4 20 adaptor.
Wow, didn't expect an answer, much less so fast - THANKS!!
Does anybody know when there will be a GoPro 7?
just now
lol
I am just a bit surprised they didnt release the Hero6 Session... I really love that tiny design packed with amazing technology!
Doesn't change the fact I still can not decide which gopro to take :D Life's hard..
6 color looks better
Yes it does
when I first look at the new Hero 6 I asked myself "where is the optical image stabilisation?where is the 100mbs bitrate?and may a larger sensor.." I am glad to see from your video that the GoPro,for the first time after the Hero4,has made improvements.At last..thanks for the vid.
Thanks for the video. Would you recommend getting the Karma grip or just the 3 way if the stabilization is good enough. For paragliding videos etc.
Hi Tippy. I don't know - but I will say the stability in this video was all done handheld - no external stabilization. So if you didn't find it stable enough, then get the grip. If you found it stable to your liking, then you don't need the grip!
I have a Hero5 and Hero6. For the H5 the Karma Grip is a must. For the Hero6, you can get away without the extra stabilizer. The stabilization on the Hero6 is amazing.
Honest and great review. I cant wait to see the 360 cam review!
Thanks Daniel! That's what I was hoping for. Gonna try to get my hands on the Fusion!
Feels like the Sony x3000 is still better in every way except the terrible external mic pre amps.
...and Sony AS-300 as well.
Sad to say I have just bought a Hero 5 Black but I am very pleased with the linear mode for 2.7k and 1080. Stabilisation is so so but I aim to get a wearable gimbal. A polarising filter improved the "white out" effect in very bright sunlight and tweaking the gamma in post editing up to 1.3 solves the contrast range so all in all, the Hero 5 black works OK if you massage it slightly. 4k looks great but the file size kills it for posting on the internet as many don't have the bandwidth to watch it. Thanks for the revue, useful and informative.
Thanks Steve!
Great review. I use gopro for photographing electrical storms in places I cannot put my dslr. Can you do raw timelapse with the hero6? Also What is the best quality ISO for the hero? Usually I would assume 100 but I understand the gopro maybe normalised around 400 iso?
Good afternoon,
I would like to ask a question regarding GoPro hero 5 and 6.
What is the angle of view in degrees?
Would you then recommend hero6 + karma grip? or is hero6 stable enough that it doesn't need the karma grip?
Or will hero5+karma grip do the job?
Is the additional $100 worth it?
Awesome video,I ride dirtbikes and upload videos onto facebook what would you recommend 1080 at 24 30 or 60 fps or 2.7 at 24 30 or 60 only reason why I ask is I did some tests and found 1080 at 660frs look very clean and stable compared to 2.7k at 30fps,
which should i go for SJ star or gopro hero 6 cuz hero 5 was not good than sj 7? Should i wait.for my budget & get these Hero6
I agree with you, on every point actually. The 240fps could be better, but GoPro really did have to move away from being limited to cropped 720p at 240fps. I think GoPro is finally moving forward, and taking the right steps.
Thanks POVHER! Yeah, I wish it was better too. That said - I agree with you! They're finally doing some really great stuff.
You're welcome! They really are! If GoPro keeps the 2x increments per year, by 2019, we could see up to 1000fps video! The 1000fps video would most likely be aliased, but that is still really good! We could even see 1080p at 480fps as early as just next year, with better 1080p240 and stabilization. I do wish the microphones were a bit better on this camera as well, but for a camera this cool, it's ok with me.
How is the audio on the 6? I have the hero 4 and purchased the hero 5. I returned it because it had horrible audio. A constant hiss in the background.
Hi YHB - do a search in the comments. We covered this. Thanks!
I have heard the Hero 4 have better audio then both Hero 5 and Hero 6
Thanks for the review. Did you capture that sunset scene on the Hero5 as well? I think similar scenes on my Hero5 look better than that image from the 6. I would love to see the comparison. Also, was there purple fringing in the same spots on the Hero5 or just the Hero6? I have never noticed it on the 5. Thanks, again!
Hi Rory, Thanks for your comment! I did shoot the same shots on the 5 - but didn't bother posting because from my position the photos looked pretty much identical (in the RAW). So it seemed like it would add unnecessary length to the video when I can just say "Hero 5 photos looked the same."
Vistek | Your Visual Imaging Experts Thanks for clarifying. That's weird. I've never noticed the purple fringing on the 5 and thought it handled scenes like sunsets better than the clips you showed. We'll see how the 6 does, but so far it doesn't seem like the smash hit that GoPro needs.
I want to buy the hero6 but heard it has terrible noise in low light (worst than the hero5). It's a common issue people are talking about. GoPro claims they will fix it in a update in November. Any news about this?
Great review, but we see 240fps 1080p is shit. How is 2.7k at 120fps - does it suffer the same way as 1080p?
@vistek what would be your honest opinion on the difference and quality between a modified ribcage backbone hero5pro vs the stock hero 6
Hi there - I have no personal experience with the ribcage product. Perhaps one of the other viewers can comment. Best of luck!
A good honest review thanks for your effort.
Thanks Kym!
M confused... which one I should buy gopro 5 or 6??????? M buying for first time..
Why is the image distorted at the edges? Can we avoid this with some presets?
hey bro thanks for the video , why are you recording the first part of the review with the hero 6 in 4k an the 5 in 2.7?
its misleading since both cameras can record at the same setting and also where your doing the shoots around 4.19 youre not saying which setting are you using in both cameras. Idk bro , thanks anyway. peace
Hi CK - I think I did them both in 1080p for when I'm walking and talking. I wanted them to both be stable and the same resolution. The bike stuff was shot in a tonne of random frame rates and resolutions. If there was no caption then the shots were Hero 6, but I didn't bother mentioning frame rates. I didn't want to unnecessarily over-caption the video.
What gopro should i buy?
I never had a camera and im doing parkour now i want to film pov i like slowmotion and stuff any tips?
congrats guys, you finally got a video over 100K, awesome review BTW, I think I want a Hero 6
Thanks Gary!
Very interesting test, especially the parts where facing the sun. In some resolutions, my Hero5 Black fails badly and blows out the whole image.
Could you please tell us about the HEVC and the Gopro app? gopro.com/help/articles/block/hevc
If we record in HEVC, there will be no live preview in the gopro app - even on most recents smartphones?
I'm already unsure whether my Galaxy Note 4 would handle the H265 files but if I were to get a Note 8 and still be unable to get a live preview in HEVC, that would be a bit of a drawback.
Hi CA, I can't speak to the HEVC. Perhaps another viewer can chime in.
Great video. Thanks from France!:-)
Merci!
Vistek - Great job on this video! It has all the topics I was looking for explained thoroughly. My largest question would be how does the H6 handle on dusk-night adventures? Such as hikes, bicycling, and motorcycle riding? How does the different ISO limits hold up n those kind of low light, high action/input scenarios?
Thanks John! I was quite impressed with it's dusk performance (as you can see in the video during the high ISO test section). I would probably stick to 24/30fps though. You're likely going to to lose dynamic range at higher FPS, and of course the ISO will bump up because it will need much more light to gain exposure.
Hey Vistek, what kind of camera were you using for the "walking the streets while talking" shots? Great video by the way, very helpful!
Hi J, I was hand holding the two GoPros. They were attached to an articulating arm. Mostly it was footage from the 6, unless they two screens were up detailing which camera was which.
Thanks for your most informative and honest review, I am intrigued by the GP Hero 6 - I have a 4 black and am disappointed in the 1080 at 120fps for the same reasons you mentioned now in the 6...ugly aliasing especially when the light is not great. The 3 black and 4 black both seem to be optimum at 1080 x 60fps... and the push to higher was overdriving the capabilities...where does the Hero 6 sit in your opinion...Can we make the call that the video 1080 at 120fps is optimum or equal to the quality of the 60fps on the earlier GoPros? Would love to hear your thoughts..thanks. :-)
Hi Jolious, I'll be honest, I have limited experience with GoPros. I used the 3s and 4s when I worked in television for in car stuff, and always found them annoying. It wasn't until the 5 (and the review I did) that I actually spent enough time with one. So, i dunno - maybe I'm too easily impressed with the 6. I really think it's a big leap - especially with stability. I quite liked the 120fps quality. I'm sure if you pixel peep, there is probably some artifacts there, or if you did it in low light - but in 99% of situations I personally think it's great.
Thanks mate..agree a big leap for GoPro...exciting times.
Can the GPS stuff in the Hero 5 be switched off, and is it possible for someone to track it even when off, just like on a mobile phone? Because I've seen some soldiers wearing these and if the GPS can give their location away...not worth it.
I have no idea. Maybe someone in the community can respond to this. - D
If you could get a lightly used GoPro 5 for $150 or a new GoPro 6 for $399, which would you choose? The enhanced image stabilization in the 6 would be nice, but is it worth $250?
Great! These colors, the angle. Omg cool!
Thanks for your comment xmotoJane
I'm deciding on getting a GoPro but i don't know if i should get the HERO 5 or 6; this video definitely helped a lot. I'm basically using it for marching band, just recording myself on the drum set, and casual videos like family trips. I don't know if it's worth it to spend the 100 for the HERO 6 but I'm tempted too because the audio and the stabilization is better and i feel like that would help with what i using the GoPro for. What do you think is better for me?
Hi Chitchard - I think that depends on how much vibration your marching and drumming is going to cause. You might benefit greatly from the new stability. If the camera is not attached to you, but just a tripod - then perhaps the new features aren't nearly as important.
Are 6400 ISO the videos swapped? I can tell by the WB wrong on the ISO 6400 7:00?
I thought the same thing when I had it on the timeline, but when I looked closer - the footage is correct. The videos are not swapped. Maybe that addresses some additional color shift at higher ISOs. Dunno. Kinda surprising.
Great video 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks Kengra!
Thanks - great footage. Finally a great cam, but $500 for a cam which is at about same level as SJ6 legend while the GoPro 5 for $400 is way behind the SJ6 legend? The most I hate at my GoPro 5 is the poor stabilization and so much '"fog' in the corners compared to the SJ6.
Thanks for your comment!
What about the "in-line" mode that cuts barrel distortion in-camera?
Hey guys, nice review. I’m recording baseball games and equipment reviews. Can ya’ll recommend a camera? High price, low price, mid range. Thanks
Seems Hero 6 has an enormous annoyng stability software issue. When you try to keep the holding steady it's extremely good, but once you pan, slide or you make slow movements image twiches violently. What do you think?
Hi Matteo - I never experienced any of those issue, except I may have noticed the pan glitch a couple times. I think there is something happening there - but it only seemed to happen in isolated moments. I found that I could mostly pan without it happening. There are several shots in the video of controlled pans without the issue. I think it requires more testing to see what brings out this effect. Thanks for your comment/question!
I want to get a go pro but I'm not going to be trying to make movies or commercials but film family videos, with that said should I just get the 5 instead of the go pro 6?
No. The 5 is not good. Image stabilization was lousy. I don't think it will be good for your purpose (I'm not sure the 6 will be either - though it's reportedly better...I'll know better when mine arrives tomorrow).
Have you done any testing on the Time lapse side of things eg does it do Time lapse in Raw??
I did briefly, but I wasn't happy with what I shot, and it looked identical (pretty much) to the stuff I pulled out of the 5, so I didn't bother putting it in the video or even mentioning it.
Hey nice useful video… i have read all the reviews of all go pros 5,6 & sony action cams …just wanted 2 clear some doubts …if u may
1. Is there any Image (photo ) quality difference between hero 5 session vs hero 5 black vs hero 6 blk vs sony as50 vs fdrx3000…..yes video n features diff is world apart but what about photos only (image quality)…did not find any review or comments on this.
2. Wts ur take hero 5 session vs Sony hdr as50 ..again 1st photo image quality advise then overall
Hi Sumedh, I did a review of the 5 vs the Sony - I encourage you to look for that on our channel. As for photo quality - I didn't see any difference in the 5 vs 6. I also find the image quality of the Sony vs GoPro comparable. I'm not familiar with the as50 though.
TY SO MUCH !!
This is a great review! Would love your opinion ... do I buy the hero 6 sometime soon or do i wait and see how Sony responds to their competition? (clearly the little RXO is going to be killing go pro anytime soon). Do you think a new FDRX 4000 or something along that line will be coming out in 2018?
The RXO is a very different product with a different market, but interesting none the less. I can't answer your question - because it would require speculation, which I'm not in the business of doing. Chasing technology is a tough thing. I always believe that you should buy the thing you need now. Hope that helps! -D
funny cuz i just bought the hero 5 black mainly cuz i couldnt afford the 6. but now im considering taking it back and paying the balance to get the newest one. Seems like its got a nice look to it, but then again i dont really focus on 4k. my edit software doesnt really do good in 4k and ontop of that i dont have the best internet so uploading 4k video would take along time. maybe just the 5 is fine.
I love my Hero 5, no it’s not perfect but still, and the stabilization alone is a huge improvement. Thanks for the review
Thanks for the comment Isaac!
You said it doesn't stabilise at 4K 60 and 1080 240 but does it stabilise at 4K 30p? I know you mentioned it does it at 24 but does it shoot 30 frames stable ?
Yes, I believe it does.
Thanks for all the good info. I almost bought a Hero 5 until they released the 6 model. I watched some videos like yours for quick research to save time answering personal questions. I am buying within two days, thanks. I still have concerns of water intrusions into the lens cap and side cover when using the camera bare, (without the super suit). Other people have reported water leakage in still water, (in home fish tanks, etc...), with the Hero 5. I will be surfing, scuba diving for lobster and spearfishing. The good action is 30 ft deep or less and at the surface, (so to speak), with surfing. With all the other improvements, I will compensate for in the water issues that may come up. I am going 4K on my pc soon and will utilize all the features. I also am a youtuber and will be showing my sports endeavors online. Sincerely, CapnStevo.
Thanks for your comment CapnStevo! Good luck with whatever you go with!
If you are going to be dunking the gopro and in saltwater as well, get another case. It is waterproof out of the box, but i would recommend extra protection for dunking.
Good review, Thank you!
AUDIO QUESTION. Hero5 black had terrible audio and did they work on it? Is it better? Did you record directly in your HERO6 with the ugly Gopro Audio-Adapter, or something different?
Hi Pedro. The audio seemed identical to the 5. I did an audio test in my Hero 5 review, so I saw no need to do one for the 6. That said, audio will likely remain marginal on all action cameras. It's just simply a limit of the technology and the end-use. This is why I recorded separate audio during the walk/talk.
ohhh dammn. So many problems with gimbals and Hero5. Terrible noise. How did you record the audio? Just totally off the cam with a recorder? I did that, but you have to synch.
All audio not on the walk/talk was off the camera. All audio during the walk/talk was a lav mic into an H4N. So yes, had to sync audio. Not the most difficult thing to do as long as you don't have to sync lots of clips. I recorded everything in the walk/talk in one take - so it was easy for me.
did you had the low light on the 5
Nice video mate :) would be nice to watch for some 4k 60fps footage.
Thanks Ice. Yeah, sorry about that - actually - it is in there... just hidden. The clip with the purple fringing is 4K 60p (downres'd to 1080). The 60fps is nice, just not stabilized.
That was a long walk! Im surprised your not sweating
I don't sweat easily.
how is the digital stability compared to the sony optical ??
Seems on par, which is shocking.
Is it just this new GoPro Hero 6 that has the feature of sharing the videos through the app to the phone ? Or the GoPro Hero 5 can do this too ?
I don't know the answer to that, but I wouldn't be surprised if it did work now with the app upgrade. Worth trying!
Thiago Gomes you can share videos to your phone on the hero 5 I have one
great details. very useful for me thanks
Thank you Emr!
Both GoPro 5&6 can also use under water?
Hi Daniel. Yes!
The only real stabilization is when you use a Gimbal. The only difference I see is more contrast on the hero6 but that's not necessarily always a good thing since shadows are darker. What is more important is accurate color reproduction.
Thanks for your comment Razvan
Good review. I think that it is the gopro that will replace my 3 black. EIS looks pretty darn good. I am disappointed with 1080@240 thou.
Thanks 1980bmi! Yeah, I wish the 240fps was better myself.
Sony FDR-3000 simply destroys any gopro camera at stabilization and external microphone, but especially at the stabilization. To bad that Sony has issues with the image focus.
How come all the fences and walls are bent
Isn't the gopro 6 able to do 4k 60fps? And yet this is in 1080p.
Hi Nick. Yes you are correct. I chose to not upload a 4K version to youtube. I have my reasons for doing this, which I explained in another comment. I encourage you to seek that out below for a more indepth response.
Thanks for review! Seems like you can get almost all of this features in YI4k+ and two times cheaper.
Thanks Gleb!
Yi 4K+ $339.98 Hero6 $499. Hardy half the price for a camera that doesn't have all the features of Hero6. Yi 4K+ requires a waterproof (audio coffin), doesn't have as good color profile or Protune. If you scratch the lens on Yi 4K+ you're screwed. On Hero6 the protective lens comes off easy and is cheap to replace. Hero6 has auto on voice activation, GPS, is waterproof WITHOUT a case, auto cloud updating, responsive and bright rear LCD, RAW and HDR photo, amazing image stability, night photo/ night laps, Selective Spot metering/ light balance, Protune audio and Stereo or Wind Resistance, Protune video and photo with adjustable ISO and shutter, and Quik Story. Yi 4K+ is a good camera but it's not nearly as good as Hero6 and not that much lower in price.
Do i need to buy karma grip with hero 6 for stabilization ??
Nope, not at all. Unless you find the stability in this video to not be adequate. Then yes, the grip will give you more stability.
Vistek | Your Visual Imaging Experts thnx 4 ur help bro
inSenSibLe _q8 you use prodad mercalli 4 to ad more stability to your video.
Excellent review, excellent camera
Thanks S.I.M.!
An so with the gopro6 i don't need the gimbal for stabilization?
I didn't use a gimbal for any shots.
It’s electronic stabilization. It’s not great.
It's night and day. My karma grip is amazing.
Karma grip is awesome. I have the drone and the grip and video quality is amazing for a consumer product and easy to use.
should i upgrade from hero 5 to hero 6?? i'm not fully convinced. please help
You're not the only one. I dunno which one to take.
Jules DA just stick with the 5 bro the 6 is not worth the extra cash in my opinion and they are very similar in quality
Hey! great review. Whats the song from 3min?
Hi Video Active. It's Elena Fariselli and the song is called Bounce. It's licensed through Artlist. I found the music video for the song here: th-cam.com/video/XeS1NYncZw4/w-d-xo.html
Can you turn off the fisheye effect on the 6?
I haven't seen too many videos on Hero6 and its features being tested on Android or PC. I heard there were some compatibility issues, can anyone confirm this? I am looking to buy one soon.
I'd like to hear about the HEVC preview on Android phones. The gopro site says it won't work: gopro.com/help/articles/block/hevc
Did you cleared the lense on Hero5 ? I don’ think so.
You're correct. I didn't notice the smudge in the top left corner until I started editing and it was too late to re-shoot. I did put up a caption at one point alerting people to it.
Not only top left, but this is what I notice on most of the Hero 5 videos on YT. Most users seem to have this problem. Hence no grease or dirt I think ....
Thanks for the vid, you forgot to show us the zoom capability and the image quality when zooming. I heard is a digital zoom so i dont really expect too much of a quality but im just curious.
There's a zoom function? Hmmm... I wasn't aware. It's not surprising considering it's easy to do with 4K output. That said, the zoom function wasn't in any of the literature I was given, and not noted in the menu or app.
Yeah, they mentioned about the zoom at the press conference / presentation. Its a touch screen feature while recording.
Would have been nice if they told me that... sigh... :)
I tested it on my Hero 6 today, there's a zoom function! It's digital zoom, but in 4k it doesn't desecrate the quality too badly. Still would recommend staying fixed zoom though
Why doesn't it shoot 720p at 480fps?
The video mentions that the 6 has some color fringing has nothing to do with blooming, these are 2 totally seperate aspects. Color fringing does occur in the 6 and NOT in the 5 as can be seen in other comparison video's here on TH-cam.
Also, to my humble eyes it doesn't look like the 6 actually has a higher dynamic range at all. It seems to be no more than just a slightly different tweaking of brightness & contrast or exposure as this video shows in the parking lot scene : the grey cars at the right at 4m21s become almost black with the 6 while the 5 renders these more acurately grey. I don't see any proof of a higher dynamic range...?
Oh by the way color fringing is usually due to optical distortion (lens quality?). So either the hero 5 has the same lens but uses software correction to reduce/eliminate color fringing OR the hero 6 simply has a lens that is of lower optical quality compared to the hero 5. Either way : the problem is not visible in the 5 while it is clearly visible in the 6.....that's not improvement.
So where they both sucked is where you went to a single vision instead of side by side?
Hi there, I'm not sure I understand the question. Perhaps you can clarify.
I'm saying that where there was a clear difference you went with side by side and where they were both bad you went with quick cuts and edits to confuse the viewer.
Hi S LeBleu, I'm sorry to hear that you felt my editing was done to confuse or mislead the viewer. I had like, a day to edit this. When you have a day you don't have the luxury of a fine-tuned edit. My first question that I ask myself is "is this watchable," and I'll be the first to admit this video straddles the line of that. No edits were done with any narrative attempt to hide information or mislead the viewer. In my opinion there is nothing to hide - it's a $500 GoPro camera, why do I care if one camera looks bad or not? Cutting between the two was done when I felt that what I was talking about merited the comparison, going to one was used when I felt like it wasn't. Every time I go to a single, it's a HERO 6. This is functionally a HERO 6 video. So if you see a single shot filling the frame, it's a HERO 6. I hope this answers your question and clears up any confusion viewers may have. Thank you.
Could you compare the Sony RX0 and GoPro Hero6 Black????
Thanks for the request - I'll look into maybe doing that!
I would think the RX10 quality wise leaves the gopro for dust. I considered it but the lens is not wide enough for what I use it for.
Thanks for the vid, really informative and gives some great examples of video quality. I wish you had addressed the audio quality as this is where GoPro is a joke. I'm guessing you were using an external mic or at the very least you were not using the Karma Grip. The audio with the GoPro 5 in the Karma Grip is an absolute joke. We have to pay $450 for the Karma Grip in Australia and only to find out the audio is totally flawed when in the Grip. Are you able to address this in another video please, it would be appreciated. I am not about to fork out $280 more for the 6 (price diff between 6 & 5) if the audio is the same in the Karma Grip. Thanks bud.
Thanks Darren. Really appreciate the comment. I'll be honest with you - there are a couple good reasons I don't address audio. #1 is that save for some radical audio invention - action camera audio will never be good out of camera. Mild improvements, maybe. But "good"... likely never. It's just a matter of how sound capture works, where the camera's microphone is relative to what's driving the sound (voice, etc). It's also a tiny camera that doesn't have the space to fit in proper microphone components, or preamps. At some point the consumer has to understand that there is a significant tradeoff with using tiny cameras. I personally think the audio out of the 5 & 6 is great considering what type of camera it's coming out of. I have noticed a great improvement over older or 1-3rd gen action cameras. The 2nd reason I didn't do an audio test in this video is because I did one in our Hero6 vs Sony X3000 video. The audio in the 5 appears to be identical to the 6 - so, I didn't feel the need to be redundant. As for the Karma grip - I'll be honest, I'm not familiar with it as the other commenters/users are. I'm sure it's a great device - but what makes the 6 so good in my opinion is that it does away with the need for extra stabilizers etc. I never used one on this video - using only the internal stability and hand holding the cameras. I was quite impressed with it - and to just throw the camera in your pocket without any additional gack seems like a pretty big deal to me. I know many people won't agree with me - but grab and go functionality means wide market appeal and I think GoPro is pretty smart this way. I hope I've shed some light on your question, or at the very least ... my rather subjective opinion. - D
v nice and informative video! subbed!
Thank you Panos! Welcome aboard! :)
when i will get the goPro6 android smartphone?^^
I have hero 4 skip 5 want hero 6 X2 and session 6 😇
Nice and helpfull.videos
Thank you for the comment!
I do have a question for whoever can answer it. Does the hero 6 truly have all the features that the hero 5 has but improved and a few extra to go along as well? Even the voice control feature?
Hi There. Yes it's improved in most of it's feature set, but voice control seems to be the same. I don't feel that voice control needed to be improved though. -D
Vistek | Your Visual Imaging Experts ok thanks! I really probably will only use the voice control once to take a video from the inside of a guitar to see what it looks like. Stay Awesome!
I just want to mention that I got a Hero4 Silver and Quick works just fine so not just for 6, downloads the videos and does the edit musc etc just wanted to clarify this.
Can u add slo motion after recording normal video?
Sorry, you can't. That's not how slow motion works on any camera. There are some apps like After Effects that can help to fake it, but it's no replacement for shooting at a proper high frame rate.
