GoPro Introduces HERO4: The Most Powerful GoPro Lineup, Ever
HERO4 Black: 2x the Performance of the Previous Black Edition GoPro, now featuring 4K30, 2.7K50 and Ultra High Speed 1080p120 Frames per Second Video Capture
HERO4 Silver: Professional Quality Capture with Built-in Touch Display Convenience
SAN MATEO, CALIF. (September 29, 2014) GoPro, Inc. (NASDAQ:GPRO), enabler of some of todays most immersive and engaging content, today unveiled HERO4, the highest performance line of capture devices the company has ever made. HERO4 is available in two editions, HERO4 Black at MSRP $499 and HERO4 Silver at MSRP $399. GoPro's Emmy Award-winning imaging technology combines with enhanced ease-of-use and powerful new features such as 4K30, 2.7K50 and 1080p120 video capture (Black) and built-in touch display convenience (Silver), to make it easier than ever for consumers to self capture and share stunning, professional quality content of their favorite experiences.
HERO4 Black delivers 2x the performance of its best-selling predecessor and now captures cinema-quality 4K video at 30 frames per second (fps), 2.7K video at 50fps and 1080p video at a blistering 120fps, virtually eliminating rolling shutter in most scenarios while allowing for time-bending slow motion effects. HERO4 Black also features an entirely redesigned audio system that captures high fidelity sound with 2x the dynamic range of previous models. Additional enhancements include improved image quality, low light performance, highlight moment tagging and an improved user interface that allows for easier discoverability and access to key features and controls. The HERO4 Black is simply the highest performance GoPro yet.
HERO4 Silver delivers the same professional image quality as HERO4 Black less some of the higher performance video capture modes including 4K30, 2.7K50 and 1080p120. HERO4 Silver includes a brilliant built-in touch display for those who value convenience and ease-of-use over the no-holds-barred performance of the HERO4 Black.
The new HERO4 line will be available October 5 on GoPro.com and at select retailers worldwide.
For the past twelve years, our passion has been to make it easy for people to self-capture jaw dropping, professional quality footage of themselves engaged in their favorite activities, said GoPro Founder and CEO, Nicholas Woodman. That passion led us to embark on our most ambitious design and engineering effort ever, and the result is nothing short of the ultimate GoPro the HERO4 Black. We can't wait to see what the world captures with it.
HERO4 Black 2x the performance, yet again.
The flagship HERO4 Black builds upon GoPro's Emmy Award-winning technology to deliver the next level of GoPro image quality, versatility and performance:
Incredible ultra high definition 4K video at 30fps allows for life-like video capture as well the ability to extract 8.3 megapixel video stills to use as photos
Faster* high resolution frame rates of 2.7K at 50fps and 1080p at 120fps
12MP magazine cover-quality photos at burst speeds of 30 photos per second
Updated user-interface with improved discoverability and access to key camera controls
50% faster Wi-Fi* combined with Bluetooth delivers enhanced GoPro App performance and improved power management

A common pain-point is deciding between capturing video or photos of an experience, remarked Woodman. Each frame of4K30 video is similar to an 8.3 megapixel photo. The result is that users can simultaneously capture eye-popping 4K30 video and impressive 8.3 megapixel photo-like video stills at 30 frames per second when using HERO4 Black. It's one of the many wild capabilities of this impressive new device.
HERO4 Silver Professional quality capture. Touch-display convenience.
The HERO4 Silver sets a new precedent for convenience and ease-of-use with GoPro's first built-in touch display:
Brilliant built-in touch display allows for easy camera control, shot framing and playback

12MP magazine cover-quality photos at burst speeds of 30 photos per second
