Ben, you're giving us ALL the feels with this review. Thanks for putting HERO12 Black through the paces + especially for loving Max Lens Mod 2.0 as much as we do! Can't wait to see more 🤝
Thanks so much!
You know you've made it on TH-cam when GoPro comments on your videos😃 we started our channel with just a Gorpo 11 and media mod. Image quality beats all the other action Cams... Every day of the week😁
Why can’t you just TURN OFF GPS???
Bring back 4:3 resolution so we can get more FPS in 2.7 k 😢, or make 8:7 4k 120fps 😮
Anything else you want ?
Ok, right off the bat at 01:00 the 1/4-20 receiver, bonus! Wind noise reduced over 10 &11 - nice. Longer run-time without aux-pwr pack. No significant HDR improvement... and I don't want gps anyway. Don't want the max lens. I like your review, but something none of the reviewers touch on that is important to me - What is the closest focal distance with the GoPro Cameras? I need to know what the closest the camera can be to the subject and have it in focus. Thumbs up, wish you all the best. Thanks.
Great review and compare versions🎉 I hope lot of people learn from you how to do it 👍🏻 thank you
This is a great review!! Thanks!
Thank you. I feel like I can trust your video and look forward to the next video comparison between brands. Looking to get my first camera
Your videos are so cool! Thanks for all the work you do. Plus, you're really easy on the eyes 😍
Bravo! one of the best reviews i've seen! Thank you for all that work!
This is the first tutorial that kept me hooked from start to finish! Just bought my GoPro today, and I'm so excited to try out all these awesome tips and tricks. Thanks, everyone, and happy GoPro adventures! 🌟📸✨
Exactly what I needed man thank you
Outstanding review! Thanks.
You are such an awesome creator, you always make the best tech videos!
pretty cool how you are answering all my questions, thanks!
Der beste Vergleich, den ich jemals gesehen habe. Danke!
Great video. Which batteries do you suggest? Also, is there way to have the GP12 plugged in to AC power?
Good review thank you! 😊
Great video! At 8:23 you are selecting mic channels. What software are you using when you do this?
Amazing video!!! Love your detail on the overheating time difference
Beautiful video. Thank you!
Hi Ben, great video!!! I’ve got a question. I’m new to go pro and am pretty tech savvy but did you have problems with your GoPro 11 not charging?
Amazing review, man, you rock it! Thank you so much!!
Thank you for this review! really clean and organized comparison, I appreciate it! Will look into your other videos following this.
@2:10 whats the make and model of the scooter you are using with the two wheels in front with the "off road" looking tires?
Great review man😄
I've been using my trusty old hero 4 for years now, it's probably time to upgrade. Great review!
excellent review, really nice job Ben. thanks a lot
You covered a LOT of good and relevant stuff! A+
Great review❤
Dzięki za film 😁👍👍👍
What a great review, thank you!
Awesome video!!! 👏
Still rocking my 10 for scuba diving. I’ll wait for the 13 this year to upgrade probably.
thanks for the review man, going to pickup a hero 11 today after work
Thank you for the video! I definitely don’t see the need for the 12 I just use it to record my rides and don’t do too much extra stuff nor do I plan to. I think ima go with the 11 just because it’s not much more expensive than the 10 atm, and just want to be able to use the media mod so I don’t have to tape the little 3.5mm mic adapter to the side of my helmet. Like it did with my old helmet.
Would you say its worth upgrading to the hero 12 + max lens mod 2.0 from the Hero 9 + max lens mod for skiing pov? I only use my gopro for skiing and some other occasional videos but skiing is the focus. Some of the other features on the Hero 12 sound fun to mess around with too so what do you think? I also have the GoPro subscription that I forgot to cancel so its only $380
amazing video, however I want to ask, will it have 8:7 aspect ratio and HDR under 4K/60fps when gopro 12 mounted with max lens mod 2.0?
This is very helpful!! Thank you🇯🇵
Very informative.
You know when a action camera is so good that you can clearly see fish in the water whiles going zooming along. looks like grass carp or something surface grazing @8:59 👍🏻
To me this is just worth the little extra,, the mic is excellent compared to the other two and overall clarity and almost lack of wind noise i really like. I would like to know what close up is like as wanted to use this as a bird camera, but i bet it is excellent. Good review
great job with the review. honestly I don't see it being much different idk if its worth the upgrade
Thanks so much for this real review
Thanks for the video helps a lot 👍🏼
Very Good Review ❤❤❤
Thanks you for sharing.
I do a ton of time;apse at night . I have a Brinno TLC 200 That is fantastic. But it stopped working so I upgraded to the TLC 300. Bottom line for night time lapse it sucks. Great in the daylight. I use the Go Pro hero 8 and have some semi good to sometimes great results. Cant wait to get the Hero 12 . Looks like some really great features. Do you have any recommendations for the best camera set up for night time , time lapse?? THX for making the vid.
I’m getting the 11 , thanks!
Thanks for the video. Can you please tell me which microSD card you use in GoPro, size, specifications, speed, etc. ? Thank you.
Really appreciate the review. Espeically the bluetooth audio, was great to see real world testing!
Eagrly waiting for gopro 12 vs action 4 neat & clean review 😊
Hi Ben!
What editing program did you use?
Also thank you for the video!❤
Very comprehensive and informative in many (if not all) aspects.
Im having trouble deciding between the 12, 11, and the max 360 one. I want the GPS overlay but I've also seen that the max may not be worth it. I am looking to record more of action videos while riding through trails on a dirtbike and wanted to see your opinion. Leaning towards the 11 as of now as it is very similar to the 12 and has the GPS overlay for speed
What did you go with
Great video, thank your for the hard work you put into making this video!
I appreciate that
Great honest review, thanks
Great video
Very good review Ben. For me I’m coming from a 7 and I need to set up motovlogs a s I want to be able to have this Bluetooth audio connection but I’m concerned after your review that I might be better off using the external audio port.
Bernie in Sydney
It's going to be a headache to find a good working bluetooth. I tested a bunch of headsets and some of them do a horrible job. Make sure that the bluetooth connection is a microphone next to your mouth, and not a microphone inside the earbuds for example. The feature of the bluetooth (with HDR mode) was the reason why I bought it but I have not been impressed yet with the bluetooth capability. They are gonna have to improve it.
Great review Ben
Thanks so much, Aldryn!
wow thanks for the video.
Dude! This was a wery useful an detailed Test! Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Which one would be best if I’m just looking to get one just to do time lapses?
Keep the good work. Great review.
Amazing review............. THANK YOU. Subscribed.
Great review, but regarding the GoPro plus subscription, you need to be a member for a full year before being able to receive the 100$ coupon
Very wonderful review. Thanks
I want to make videos where I strap the gopro to my chest and go around photographing. I think the FOV on the 10 and 11 is perfect for this, on the 12 is might be too wide. But the 11 and especially the 12 have better battery life. So I guess I'll take the middle ground 11 which also has a mini variant. If the chest thingy supports mini gopros though. Thanks for the review!
Awesome review. Thank you.
Just bought a mint (lightly used) GP10 Black for $239. Fine for my needs.
Thanks for this review. I have the 10 and 11 and was looking into the 12. It looks like I wouldn't get much value from upgrading based on my personal use.
Thanks for this buddy! I started to grab one of the new ones but will wait...Lack of built in GPS or the ability to piggyback off ones smartphone or smartwatch is not for me.... Awesome review!
One thing to mention is the subscription service comes with unlimited cloud storage.
Super review 😊😊
Thanks for the comparison between all the recent GoPro's. Great video.
NICE! Thanks for the great review! Can you please shoot a segment where you scare the alligators back out to the water please...?
Hej Ben! Great review. If I'm considering investing in the first GoPro for sailing, would you recommend the 11 or the 12? 😀
Great video Ben. Whats your thoughts gopro12 v dji osmo action 4?
Even though the 10 didn't perform as well. I would like you to switch them around so the 10 is at the other end while filming and do this for them all. The 12 seems to be pointing directly at you and the others off to the side a bit. If you look at how far your arm is extended when you reach out on the 12 vs the others. They seem closer to your face. Angle makes a difference. Regardless the 12 is the best option.
Hey Ben, awesome video! Can you tell me about that 3 wheel scooter you were cruizin on in the stabilization portion of the video? I think I need one of those in my life. 😄😄 Thanks in advance!
Good review, helps me with my options.
Awesome review, thanks.
What happens when you put Max Lens Mod 2.0 on a Hero 11? I see no technical reason why it should not work, did GoPro lock it to 12 only?
Great and engaging review! The MLM2.0 seems awesome. However, do you need to take it on and off if you want to change between ultra wide and more linear sort of FOV? Thank you.
Nice comparative review, assisted greatly in the decision as to the 11, or the 12... ty
Always wait for your comparison video, now fingers crossed for action 4 comparison video
Nice Video! I love my Gopro10🎬
is it worth upgrade??? I have gopro6 and wondering if I'll see the difference in a day light if I'll upgrade to 11 or 12
Thank u bro
Thanks for the review. You did an excellent job highlighting the subtle differences. Subscribed!
yo, you're a real one for this video. you have my respect for doing this. we appreciate your time, energy, and dedication. blessings from Los Angeles.
Calm down 😂😂😂
Thanks for the great review. I'm new in the GoPro world and I'm interested to get one. The 12 seems like the best for me but I see a creator edition at $600 which is quite expensive. Do you think it's worth for someone like me that doesn't have any accessories? Also, how does the storage work on these? Sorry if these are very basic questions.
You will need micro SD cards for storage. As far as accessories I would say build out your own based on wants $200+ for accessories sounds kinda crazy but could be worth it depending on what you would use it for!
😢
Thanks for the review! Been thinking about GoPro’s for skateboarding but didn’t like how they looked before. This sold me because of the barrel distortion. Reminds of the Vx1000 with the MK 1 extreme fisheye. The skate clips sold it for me! Thanks again, you have no idea how much this helped me. Keep up the great work! 🙏🏽💯
Great review Ben. Now I'm looking forward to having the GoPro12. Thanks for the insights
Thanks for the review gopro 12 it is
Super helpful. Thanks man.
Been having a great time with the 12 on the Central Coast of CA. Coming from the 8 Pro, I can day it's great.
how has it taken 12 different models of go pro to finally make use of the camera industry standard 1/4 inch connecting jack
1:08 Hi Ben. Regarding the 1/4 20 mount of the new GoPro, I believe the Falcam F22 quick release system could be a good option to look into. Personally, I use the Falcam F22 system to mount my external monitor to my camera. It allows me to mount and remove my accessories in a sec. Now, I cannot live without it. Great video and awesome comparisons as always. Thank you for sharing it with us.
Finally video arrived
Waiting for your video... With this comparison
This was a great video! Thank you so much for the effort this must have taken.
Nice Video - THX! I just checked the 10, 11 and 12 to see whats the shutdown time on Heat is. Best, Tech4Fun
Good job bro
Does the Max 2.0 lens adapter works with GoPro Hero 11? I’m trying to find that answer and I can’t find it anywhere. Big thanks for
for the review video as always, Ben.
It haa been said on their forum that its not backwards compatible. 12 can use both 2.0 and 1.0, but older models only 1.0
Not unless they release a firmware update to the 11. Which is doubtful. The Max Lens Mod 2.0 is a big reason people will upgrade to the 12 (I did)
The Max Lens 2.0 can fit physically, but due to Hero 11 firmware, you will be stuck with Max Lens mod 1.0 specs.
The Enshitificaton of GoPro continues
Super lame of GoPro to brick the 12 by removing GPS and then not allow 12 to have the max lens 2.0 update. Heck I’d pay 100 bucks to update the firmware
