New GoPro HERO7 Black - Is It Worth It???
Hell yes it is! I just upgraded my GoPro Hero2 to the brand new state of the art GoPro Hero 7 Black. You guys, I've been waiting a decade for gopro to get the image stabilization right and they have done it! And the hyper-smooth image stabilization is just one great thing about it. It's basically a "smart" GoPro. I am so in love with this camera. I can't believe it is only $400 bucks. Seriously. The image stabilization is AMAZING! Very Gimbal-like!

I woke up on a sea cliff this morning on beautiful Vashon Island, Washington so I decided to shoot a little test footage. Check it out. I'll be doing an unboxing and review video soon. I didn't even shoot in 4k, just 1440 HD.

It doesn't seem overly priced @ $400. The quality from the video in the post looks great so if filming is your thing then yeah its probably worth it.

Give us a review about how well the Image Stabilization works in 4k when you get a chance.

There is LESS border area for electronic image stabilization to work on when filming in 4k vs 1080P which is my concern about an upgrade.

Like you I have been using my HERO 2's for a number of years now and have been thinking about an upgrade (I have two HERO 2's since I still do some 3d filming, which they have apparently abandoned - only the HERO 2's and HERO 3's were ever able to be set up for 3d - the 3d effect IS totally amazing)

Oh I didn't know. I've never done any 3d stuff. I'm pretty basic and old school.

So here is the thing. This new camera shoots in 4k but it does not have the hyper-smooth stabilization in 4k. It only has it with 2.7k and 1440 HD. I guess the 4k is for like tripod shots. But the 2.7k and HD is AMAZE BALLS with this hyper-smooth stabilization. I am so impressed and so in love with this camera. Also, it has voice commands and live streaming and all kinds of cool stuff. Pretty user friendly, but you still gotta play with it a little to figure out the sweet spot. ;)

I just posted a thread on this, not seeing what you had posted. How ironic!

If you have any experience with night sky photograpy, I would love to hear any tips you have.

Oh nice. Do you mean with the GoPro or just in general? This new gopro does pretty good in low light. I saw the night shot feature with the still photos but haven't tried it yet. Still figuring it all out.

Thank you

It sure is. I love house-sitting here!

I'm not crazy about the weather either. Lived here a year now and I can't believe summer is already over and another 6-7 months from now until it warms up again. Always cold and rainy, but it sure is beautiful!
