Action Getting Fierce; GoPro to Chase its Identity in Future

GoPro is the uncrowned king of the action world. The assimilation of big components into small packaging has been the master forte of the company which may quest its place in the near future. The Panasonic and Casio are trying really hard in the adventure camera segment and have crafted some ultra modern snappers to dominate over the segment. Currently, the segment is lead by the Hero series of the GoPro.

The 4K video recording feature of these snappers is looked up as the next generation videography. The great picture size is the biggest plus point of these snappers and it can also be treated as a flaw when the storage is concerned. An average of 10 minute video grabs 4GB of space which is ridiculously high. The GoPro has introduced a $129 camera which is indicating about its inexpensiveness. The equipments required for the same were bonded with a huge size, which is worked upon for better and affordable costs, but the display gadgets to show such a huge image cost above lakh. A middle-class enthusiast can go for the same but in dreams.

Classically, the full HD 1080p videos were cherished as if they are the best one to show the most minute pixel embedded right there. The 4K has opened up the lane for real resembling sterling imaging. But it is not denying that despite having a great output, the market is slow for this category. The beaming side of the same is the action capability of the same. The GoPro robs the accolades in the alleged department as unlike the GoPro, the other firms manufacturing action cameras including Panasonic and Sony are not the dedicated action camera producers and hence the Hero series knows the able-to-furnish key spots to get the polished results out.

If we compare the most suitable rival of Hero 4 with it i.e. Panasonic HX-A500, then the difference in basic equipments and the final quality would leave no disorientation for choosing the right thing. Chattering about the GoPro HERO4, it records 4K videos at 30FPS with its 12 megapixel sensor and is water resistant upto 131 feet. The Panasonic’s virtuoso is not that brilliant with 25FPS recording on 4K with 8.3 megapixel sensor. Notably, the GoPro has dragged the ball in its court and won’t be sensing any hurdle of drowning till the ultra HD imaging is concerned.
