About this deal

It would have been nice to see some low light and battery life performance improvements and, for the cost, current Hero 9 and 10 owners may struggle to justify upgrading. Those looking to invest in the best, however, can end their search here. The camera is also compatible with GoPro’s smartphone app. In fact, you’ll need to first pair it with your smartphone before you can complete the initial setup process. Available for Android and iOS devices, the app allows you to control the camera remotely, edit your footage on the go and upload your clips directly to social media. The GoPro Hero 11 is, of course, just as robust and watertight as its predecessor. Immerse yourself in water, mud or snow. It's all possible, down to a depth of 10m. Plus, the camera features a scratch-resistant lens cap for even more protection. The cap can be easily replaced as and when necessary. The updated Enduro battery included with the GoPro enhances the camera's performance. It now lasts up to 38% longer in cold temperatures. It is also faster-charging, giving you more time to immerse yourself in the snow. Given GoPro is renowned for point-and-shoot simplicity, this feature is therefore a little niche. It's also slightly at odds with the fact that GoPro doesn't offer any desktop editing software, and is instead funneling everyone towards its Quik app instead. But it's definitely something that'll please pro shooters who are looking to drop GoPro footage into a timeline shot by more advanced video cameras. Camera Case: the 600D polyester shell (spill-proof) with polyester mesh interior provides durable storage and travel solution for your GoPro and accessories. Dimensions: 8.8in x 4.1in x 2.5in (22.5cm x 11cm x 7cm), Weight: 4.8oz (135g)

The revamped GoPro also features the tried & trusted power tools. Never miss a golden moment with HindSight. With this, up to 30 seconds worth of footage is captured before you even start recording. Set the GoPro to Scheduled Capture. This ensures the GoPro automatically powers on and records a time-lapse video up to 24 hours in advance. Record video clips lasting 15s to 3hrs with ease, with Duration Capture.

The new HyperView view mode is also very interesting. Squashing the full 8:7 sensor image into a standard 16:9 frame, this mode is able to create videos with an ultra-wide feel, compressing the vertical plane and giving the impression that the horizontal plane has been stretched. While this won’t work for every shot – the distortion is quite noticeable on people and faces – it does add to the intensity of fast-paced action. As part of this mission, whenever we review a product we send the company a series of questions to help us gauge and make transparent the impact the device has on the environment. I will note, however, that it would be nice to have some in-camera 16:9 grid lines to overlay whilst filming in 8:7. As it is, GoPro only offers some basic rule of thirds guides, which leaves you guessing as to how to frame your shots. The selected option is currently unavailable in the ZIP Code provided. Please select another option for additional availability.

The benefit of this approach is that, rather than taking a crop from a horizontal frame, you still maintain very high image quality with the vertical exports. For example, if you shoot in 8:7 and export a 9:16 vertical video from that footage, its resolution will be about 20% higher than 4K. So this feature is certainly a big boon for social media creators, particularly those posting on platforms that are stylistically different like YouTube and TikTok. Control the GoPro to your liking. The options are two-fold: point & shoot or full camera control. With full control you can make manual adjustments to the modes and settings. The point & shoot option is configured with versatile recording settings that are suitable for the majority of recordings. Select an angle, press the button and the camera does the rest. video shot at maximum quality at 60fps took between 25 and 28 minutes before recording stopped, while 120fps content lasted a little shy of 14 minutes. All these tests were conducted with no airflow, in other words, when the camera was stationary. Action recording will take longer to overheat as movement promotes air circulation.Choose between 8 or 10-bit colours when capturing your adventures. The GoPro Hero 11 features in excess of 1 billion colours, and with 10-bits you can create enhanced colour depth, smoother gradations and more realism in your photos and videos. This GoPro-exclusive lens takes the 8:7 aspect ratio footage captured by the new image sensor and delivers it as a wide-angle 16:9 shot to create ultra-immersive POV videos. There’s also a new HyperView mode, designed to take full advantage of the Hero 11’s taller sensor. HyperView takes the full 8:7 image and squeezes it down into a standard 16:9 frame in-camera. The result is a super-distorted, super-wide view that GoPro is marketing as “ultra-immersive” with an “epic feel”.

You can also benefit from hours of enjoyment with the new nighttime effects. Three new time-lapse modes have been added. With Star Trails you can capture the light trails in the sky. With Light Trails you get the same effect, but with vehicles. With Light Painting you can create brush stroke effects with moving light. Running with LCD screen tech, while it isn’t as inky as the AMOLED on the DJI Action 2, it’s bright and easy to view outdoors which is always handy for an action cam.Rather than using GoPro’s classic 4:3 native aspect ratio, the Hero 11 comes with a nearly-square 8:7 chip. Combined with the camera’s high-resolution 5.3K recording options, this should allow creators to cut landscape and vertical videos from the same take. The sensor’s near-square native aspect ratio enables horizontal and vertical clips to be easily cropped out of the same shot. While I’d still recommend shooting a little wide to maximise your framing options, the camera’s super high resolution 5.3K recordings give you plenty to work with. Plug in your HERO11 when connected to your home Wi-Fi and automatically upload your footage to the cloud. A highlight video is sent to your phone and can then be edited with beat-synced music and effects. The face of the camera houses the lens, which is compatible with GoPro’s ultra wide-angle Max Lens Mod, a microphone and a 25 x 25mm front-facing, non-touch colour LCD. A second microphone sits adjacent to the shutter button atop the device while a third is built inside a special water-draining inlet beneath the side power/mode button. If GoPro just made an 8:7 sensor, that would have been smart, but it’s gone one step further. The GoPro Quik app for iOS and Android makes cropping your videos as easy as cropping your photos. Now the game really has changed.
