GOPRO HERO9

GoPro is the original action-cam brand – the one that had such a massive role to play in how we capture footage of our adventures. It has created real-life action heroes the world over, from downhill skiers to deep-sea divers, to surfers and mountain bikers. And then let’s not forget other important users, such as those who’ve set them up inside car tyres to see what happens, or those who’ve showed us what goes down inside a dishwasher.

The latest iteration is the HERO9, which has 30 per cent more battery life, a detachable lens, and is waterproof up to 10 m. It can capture 5K video, as well as 4K, 2.7K, 1440p and 1080p. It takes pro-quality stills of up to 20 MP, and the Lens Mod delivers incredible Max HyperSmooth stabilisation and Max SuperView, otherwise known as the brand’s widest-angle yet. It captures up to 240 frames per second, and TimeWarp 3.0 will have you making mesmerising time-lapse videos in a flash. HindSight enables you to capture up to 30 seconds of footage before you even start recording, meaning you’ll never miss the shot, even if you think you’ve pushed the record button too late.
