GoPro has this week added a new action camera to their range called the GoPro Hero+LCD, that will provide a mid-range camera priced at $300.
Features and Specifications
As the name suggests, the new GoPro Hero+LCD action camera is equipped with a touchscreen LCD, making it easier for users to navigate settings and review footage on the go. This feature is particularly useful for those who are new to action cameras or prefer a more intuitive interface. The camera is capable of capturing 1080p video recordings at 60 frames per second (fps), ensuring smooth and high-quality video playback. Additionally, it can take 8-megapixel still shots, which is ideal for capturing crisp and clear images during your adventures.
The GoPro Hero+LCD also comes with built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth capabilities. These features allow users to connect the camera to the GoPro smartphone and tablet companion applications. Through these apps, users can control the camera remotely, view live previews, and share their content instantly on social media platforms. This connectivity makes it easier than ever to share your experiences with friends and family in real-time.
Just like the entry-level GoPro cameras, the new GoPro Hero+LCD is equipped with a non-removable waterproof case. This durable case enables the camera to descend to depths of 131 feet (40 meters), making it perfect for underwater adventures such as snorkeling and scuba diving. The waterproof case also provides protection against dust and shock, ensuring the camera remains functional in various extreme conditions.
New Video Editing Features
In addition to the hardware upgrades, GoPro has announced the release of a new video editing feature that enhances the user experience. This feature allows users to trim longer videos down to shorter clips directly on the camera. This is particularly useful for creating highlight reels or sharing specific moments without the need for extensive post-production editing. The ability to quickly and effectively highlight the action makes it easier to share your best moments on social media platforms like Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube.
For example, if you capture a long mountain biking session, you can quickly trim the footage to showcase the most thrilling parts of the ride. This feature saves time and effort, allowing you to focus more on your adventures rather than spending hours editing videos.
The GoPro Hero+LCD is designed to be user-friendly, making it accessible to both beginners and experienced users. Its combination of high-quality video and photo capabilities, along with the convenience of a touchscreen and built-in connectivity, makes it a versatile choice for capturing a wide range of activities.
