Photography Skillset

Keeping it simple - For someone who is not too bothered about technicalities, this GoPro device works!

Video skill level

Just a beginner - Whether you're just starting to develop some expertise or you only record videos from time to time, then the GoPro Hero will satisfy your needs..

Video Scenarios

Streaming video live is a great way to share your experiences and this camera from GoPro provides a couple of connectivity options to help you with this.

Recording every moment of the day's events is precious and this device certainly delivers. 

Its always great to capture moments of delight at home or while spending time with family and friends on an outing. For this, the GoPro Hero is a great companion to have.

Rough and Tumble - It's rugged and built for the outdoors. As such you won't have to worry about getting splash of water on it nor if it gets the odd bump now and then.

Other Video needs

Slow motion recordings add an extra dimension of fun and entertainment. This camera comes with an in-built setting that enables this mode.

Breathtaking transitions such as rolling clouds or city lights can captured as a time-lapse using the GoPro's in-built intervalometer

Low light recording can be tricky, however this camera has got what it takes to help you through that. This is because its minimum aperture number combined with it's maximum ISO sensitivity can produce crispy images with minimal noise.

Capturing photos and video from your perspective while in action is always something special. There's no substitute for people seeing things they you experienced it. Which is why the GoPro Hero is a good fit as it's shape and size makes POV shots a breeze.

Photo Scenarios

If you're looking to simply use your camera to point-and-shoot everyday moments with an item or person as the subject matter, then the Hero is an easy recommendation for this.

Its important to ensure the celebrant (or special guests) are in clear view in every photo taken. Keeping them in focus while they're moving about is one of the great features that comes with the Hero.

Sea-life is always breathtaking. With this camera from GoPro, you can expect to produce vivid images that showcases the unique tone that are found with photographs taken underwater.

Sometimes while on sightseeing or on a tour, you can only observe things from a distance. Which is why the zoom capability on this camera comes in handy in that situation.

If you've got requirements to take photos of a variety of landscapes, then the presence of multiple scene modes on a camera is helpful in order to setup quickly and start shooting. This model from GoPro has got this capability making it a suitable option for your needs. 

Other considerations

During wet weather, not all cameras can cope with the odd splash or two. Fortunately, this device from GoPro is sufficiently resistant to water to protect it from rain and drizzles.

With this model, you no longer need to worry about carrying cables for data transfer all the time as it comes with Wi-FI.

As it comes with a waterproof depth of up to 10m m metres, this camera ticks the box for underwater use.

Style

The Hero comes in an unconventional package that stands out from the typical greys and blacks that are common with such devices.

Boasting clean lines and premium looks, the Hero showcases your refined taste in mobile cameras. Guaranteed to make your friends green with envy.
