Unlike analog cameras in the past, a good majority of cameras these days are digital and as such, have software that helps power it and gives it features as well as process images. This also means that camera manufacturers have the ability to issue firmware updates that will give cameras new features and improve on existing ones.
In GoPro’s more recent cameras, the company introduced a front-facing display. However, these displays mostly only displayed information like battery life, recording time, video settings, and so on. We’re sure that there are some users who might prefer if that display could be used for recording as well.
Due to the coronavirus pandemic, more people are working and studying from home, and as such, video conferencing software is on the rise. While most of us have webcams, they aren’t necessarily the best in terms of quality, but thankfully, camera makers have since released software that turns their cameras into higher quality webcams.

In the past month or two, leaked photos and FCC filings have revealed that GoPro might have a couple of new cameras in the works. One of those cameras is the GoPro Hero 8 while the other is the GoPro Max. For those wondering about either camera, wonder no more as GoPro has officially announced both devices.
One of the selling points of the GoPro is that it is small. This means that taking it with you on the go is pretty easy as it is small enough to fit in your pocket or bag. However, the small form factor also means that you would need to compromise on certain things, but that could change with the GoPro Hero 8.
Just the other day, specs of GoPro’s upcoming Hero 8 camera was leaked. However, as it turns out, the Hero 8 might not be the only camera in GoPro’s lineup because according to the folks at Photo Rumors, they have stumbled across photos of another GoPro camera which will apparently be known as the GoPro Max.
If you’re in the market for a new action camera, then you might be interested to learn that the folks at GoPro could actually have a new camera in the works. This is according to a report from Photo Rumors who claims that the GoPro Hero 8 camera is in development and that it could actually be announced as early as next month.
GoPro has long been the gold standard for action cameras. It tried to encroach on DJI’s domain with a drone but that didn’t really work out and GoPro gave up on its drone ambitions. It’s DJI’s turn now to shake things up a bit. The recent leaks were accurate, the company today unveiled its new Osmo Action camera. It has been developed to compete with GoPro’s Hero line.
DJI is a company that many might be familiar with as a company that specializes in making drones. GoPro, on the other hand, might be more known as a company that specializes in action cameras. However, we have seen in the past that GoPro has attempted to develop its own drones, and now DJI could be looking to do the same with action cameras as well.
The ongoing trade dispute between the United States and China threatens even the U.S. companies that have their products manufactured in the People’s Republic. Their products could end up costing more if tariffs are imposed on more products that are made in China, a move some fear would raise iPhone prices noticeably, for example. GoPro is taking a pre-emptive step by announcing that it will move almost the entire U.S.-bound […]
When it comes to action cameras, it’s safe to say that GoPro is more or less the default brand that comes to mind. That being said, it seems that GoPro is set to announce new cameras soon because thanks to B&H Photo (via The Verge), it looks like the company accidentally leaked a bunch of GoPro HERO7 cameras ahead of their official announcements.
It appears that GoPro will soon be announcing a new action camera. The company is best known for its action cameras and despite some its troubles recently, it continues to do what it does best. The GoPro Hero 7 hasn’t been officially announced yet but a store display that has gone up early has essentially confirmed that it’s coming soon.
Have you ever wondered what it looks like from a Hot Wheels perspective? If you’ve ever been curious, then you might be interested to learn that Mattel has unveiled a new Hot Wheels car (if you can call it that) called “Zoom In” that actually comes with a mount designed to fit a GoPro action camera.
GoPro really wants you guys to buy their cameras, so much so that the company has recently launched its “TradeUp” program. As it name suggests, this is pretty much a trade-in program (except that GoPro is framing it like you’ll be upgrading your camera) that will accept any old camera that will go towards the purchase of a new GoPro.
Earlier this year it was reported that GoPro had put itself up for sale. It seems that the company isn’t doing so well and is looking to sell itself off. However what’s interesting is that according to a report from The Information (paywall; via Bloomberg), one potential candidate to buy GoPro comes in the form of Chinese smartphone giant, Xiaomi.
GoPro’s business has had a tough couple of years even though it’s synonymous with really good action cameras. CEO Nick Woodman has previously said that the company will reset expectations this year and its new product is certainly the first step in that direction. GoPro today launched its promised entry-level action camera that’s simply called GoPro Hero. It costs $199.
