• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

GoPro Hero 4 Rumors: 30FPS 4K Video Capture and Touch LCD

Go Pro Hero 4 Rumored to be hitting the market very soon.










  • NEW - Touch LCD screen built in on the back!
  • NEW - Battery latch on the bottom of the camera
  • NEW - Settings button on the side of the camera (Previously where Wifi was)
  • NEW - the LCD on the front of the camera now also has the record and Wifi lights combined into the UI.
  • It looks like the design is in-line with Hero3+ dimensions and should be inversely compatible withe previous mounts and cases.
  • It looks like the design still has the ability for users to add bacpacs to the camera.
This is confirmed by multiple sources having similar images, so it seems pretty legitimate!



  • Hero4 Release dates
Nothing has been confirmed, but an October release was expected, and we could be looking at an announcement as early as Sept. 30. Leaked literature (see below) indicates availability by October 15, though it could vary be region. It should be noted that GoPro has stopped shipping Hero3+ cameras, which is a good indicator of a nearby announcement.


Notable specs from multiple sources.
    • 4k-30 - The images show this setting on the LCD.
    • 2.7k-60 - This was unexpected and is not confirmed yet, but was claimed by the store literature below.
    • 12MP pictures - The rumor was 13MP, but it looks like we're getting 12, hopefully at a better quality.
    • Bluetooth capabilities (See firmware above), unknown if built in or bacpac.
    • GPS, Environmental data logging (temperature, humidity, etc...), unknown if built in or bacpac.
    • Image stabilization (of some sort)
    • Rumored case frame

Yes. I was looking at the Hero 3 at a local store. The salesperson mentioned, off the cuff, that the Hero 4 was coming out next month and that I may want to wait. I asked if a clearance price was in the offing for the Hero 3 and she said she didn't have anymore information. Soooooo....
 
Got an action cam

Still using my replay XD 1080p.

What does interest me photographically speaking, would be trading up my Nikon D800 for the new D810 body. ;-)

That would be awesome, as I couldn't afford to keep them both.

Gopro makes some very decent units and the numerous videos out there proves that.

But it's a very different league than the other I speak of...
I could likely stack 8 or ten gopros in one of my lens cases...
