Back-up the stories of your epic adventures with crystal clear, super-smooth videos. The Black edition is the best-of-the-best and the HERO8 Black is no exception, with smoother, more detailed videos and pictures than ever before. Improved technology allows GoPro to extend their impressive HyperSmooth stabilization to all resolutions, and even offer a new level of stabilization with HyperSmooth Boost. This next tier of stabilization takes the gimbal-like smoothness of HyperSmooth and refines it for professional looking footage from a camera that fits in the palm of your hand. Pre-set shooting modes give you instant access to your favourite settings, so you won’t miss epic air or a silly pet moment while messing around in menus. Strategically placed microphones deliver crisp, clear audio and signals are analyzed and filtered to reduce noise. Voice controls mean having your hands full won't equal a missed shot, all you need to do is say the word. SuperPhoto mode takes digital magic to new heights, producing sharper, more vibrant pictures. When paired with a smartphone or tablet running the free GoPro app the HERO8 Black lets you edit, synch videos, share content through social media and livestream adventures from your phone.
