This is by far, the most professional review of the Hero 5 I have seen.
i like mine.
Best review i have seen
Did anyone noticed the issue when you try to record when the usb port is open? The audio gets really muffled and pretty much unusable.
the best review of hero 5, ty!
Hi I know this is a lot to ask but can you please send me a GoPro hero 5 I have been wanting one for ever and I know it’s a lot to ask but please can you send me one
Nice camera gopro hero 5
This has been a HUGE jump up for me from the Hero2. Voice activation is amazingly helpful !
Bravo GoPro !!!!!
I’m having quit a few freezes and other problems with my Hero 5. So far, my Yi 4k has been my go to action camera. I basically use my Hero 5 for anything with water. The only good thing is I don’t need an extra housing unit.
1st
Great review!! Thank uou.
is this a good camera for someone who wants to vlog and is only a bigginer
Doesn’t make me want to upgrade from my Hero 4 Silver, still more than happy with it.
OUTDATED USB??? No… noo….
no battery back pack. deal breaker!
Is there a touch screen protection I mean is it scratch proof like our new age mobiles
Nice vid
I’m late to the party, but I’m getting my first Gopro (Hero 5 black) this Christmas & I’m very excited. It’s nice that as newer Gopro models come out, those of us with a modest budget can benefit from the discount on older models and still get a great action camera. Thanks for the information!
The best and the most comprehensive Go Pro tutorial. Thank you!
I bought the Hero 5 and it’s been unopened in my room for the past week because I had second thoughts… Not anymore!!
is thier external audio via bluetooth conectivity via helmet comms ie sena s20 without the additional back plate?
Will the SD card from a hero 4 work in the hero 5 ? Thank you.
Lol the touchscreen is badd. Xiaomi Yi is better
does the frame cover up the top mic hole?
THE BIGGEST HEADACHE I GET WITH MY NEW HERO 5 IS LEAVING THE STANDARD 1/4 INCH MOUNTING HOLE SO I COULD MOUNT IT ON ALL MY TRIPODS AND OTHER MOUNTING EQUIPMENT.PLUS THEY COULD HAVE DESIGNED IT TO OPERATE ON "AAA" BATTERIES. MY PENTAX HAS A SQUARE RECHARGEABLE ALONG WITH AN ADAPTER TO LOAD 4 "AA" BATTERIES. THIS IS A BIG DEAL WHEN NEED TO TAKE PHOTOS AN YOU’RE STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE WITH A DUD BATTERY THAT DOESN’T FIT ANYTHING ELSE OR ANY OTHER MODLE. I WILL KEEP THIS HERO 5 BLACK AND I’LL HAVE TO GO SHOPPING FOR THE 10 MORE CAMERAS THAT I NEED FOR NEXT SPRING BUT I DOUBT IF THEY’LL BE GOPRO’S.
Great review. It would be nice to see comparison with Garmin Virb Ultra 30 🙂
Yi 2 4K still better dollar per dollar to gopro hero5 black coz cheaper by half but very high quality images and video. gopro hero5 better coz no housing required for recording under water
Batteries never seem to migrate between version releases. The bump in mAh is finally VERY welcomed.
Which sd card is the best for GoPro Hero 5 Black ?
Great video, thanks!
Am I the only one who hates the "new" design. I added quotation marks because it reminds me of the GoPro Hero. Not my cup of tea, however I do like the USB C port.
Have you tested it with an external microphone? Fantastic Review!
IFTI, I FINALLY DID IT. THIS WAS IT FOR ME. FINALLY, A NEW GOPRO THAT ”I” HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR. I ORDERED ONE!
BUT AM KEEPING ONE OF MY HERO 2’S, AS A SECONDARY CAMERA. AND SELLING THE OTHER TWO I HAVE. I ALSO ORDERED THE Remo (Waterproof Voice Activated Remote) TOO. A ACCESSORY I CAN REALLY USE.
I bought this camera on 2016 boxing day which was attracted by a description on best buy website "night vision". However there is no night vision option on this camera. I purchased a memory card to use it on Hero 5 Black, according to the description given on the gopro website. Unfortunately card stop working after 17 minites continuous shooting. I noticed following defects on Hero 5 back which are given below
1. Lens portion of camera is heating up after 15 minits continuous shooting.
2.There is no good video quality for 4k video (my canon 6D have better quality on 1920*1080 video shooting than Gopro)
3. Misleading information on remaining battery charge information.
4. camera stop working after exactly 17 minits shooting..
So which better i buy? Help me please
And now at an affordable price. Can’t believe people are buying gopo white 7 over hero black 5. I been doing my homework. ; }
Excellent review:)
I’ve waited for your review on the Hero 5. Again a great video! I’m using a Hero 3 and 3+ black for motovlogging and I’ve never had the need to change settings on the fly. Therefore I couldn’t care for a touchscreen. Only drains the battery.
I complain about the video stabilization. EIS or Gyro is not so good it’s a bit jerky and I am using firmware 2.60
I just got one yesterday
Phenomenal camera! I have one and it is much better than my old Hero 4 Silver.
Has anyone had the burst photo camera glitch? 😦
My Sony a6000 mirrorless camera has a massive ASP-C sensor so it’s got better image and video quality than this. I still have the GoPro Hero 5 Black. I’ll use it for action shots. It struggles to pull in light when it’s dark due to a smaller sensor than the a6000. I can put those GoPros in places that big mirrorless camera can’t go though when I’m filming activities that I’ll do. Anyways, it’s still a great camera, it’s just not in the a6000’s league. The GoPro was designed to be a POV action camera.
