Review on GoPro HERO8 Black Ultimate Bundle - HERO8 Black Camera, Shorty, Head Strap, 32GB SD Card, 2 Rechargeable Batteries by Agata Skoneczna ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Not a bad product, quite normal quality.

The cost was the primary motivating factor for me to investigate Chinese alternatives. There were two Chinese cameras, but neither of them had image stabilization. This is problematic for an action camera because it causes the picture to be shaky, which can be annoying. These cameras could be purchased for up to one hundred dollars. If you shoot in 1080, they did a pretty good job for the money and could even compete with other companies. After settling on the decision, I made the purchase of a reference gopro after watching a video on YouTube. At this point, 10k had been released, and it had a starting price of 30k; however, given that I am not a blogger and that I shoot primarily for myself and friends, I chose not to bother with 10k and instead went with 8k. I have no major complaints about the way the shooting went. Despite the peculiar nature of the assertion, it has been established more than once that the camera has a number of flaws. The functionality of the camera is entirely predicated on the location of the galaxy relative to Orion's belt. I get around on a moped; during the winter, they drove along the shore of the lake; one battery was sufficient for 25–30 minutes of operation at 2.7 or 4k resolution. As we made our way slowly across the field from the lake, we noticed that the camera had intermittent issues even after 5 minutes. despite the fact that the battery was brand new and still warm, just like the camera. Whenever there is a problem where the device, even after being turned off, will not turn back on, the solution is to remove the battery. After testing a few different flash drives, I decided to purchase a Sandisk with 128 GB of storage and 300 MB per second. Due to the fact that the lens cannot be removed, protective glasses were purchased to place over it. If these were not used, the screens and lens would quickly become scratched. To tell you the truth, the software that comes with this camera demonstrates that they have wrung every last drop of performance out of it. concerning software constitutes its own distinct concern. After pressing each button on the program for editing gopro footage, I was prompted to enter my credentials. This was the case regardless of which button I pressed. There is no button labeled "remember." The program will not work properly if you load more than 1-2-3 videos at a time (this can be seen in the task manager). In the end, we were able to locate a solution on the forum, which involved rewriting some of the files with the current date. However, after some time has passed, the program starts up, but there is nothing that can be done on the screen that displays the video loading because it does not appear to load any files. It didn't become apparent until after about a month of use. Aside from that, yes, the camera is cool; it is light, it has protection against water, it shoots well and writes sound, and it has excellent stabilization. It turns out that earlier, when I was reading the reviews, I thought that all of this is not significant and obviously not for everyone, but it turns out that I was wrong.

Pros
  • The video and sound quality, the ability to customize the shooting modes, and the construction quality
Cons
  • FLEXIBLE, lens that is not removable, and battery capacity
