gopro hero+ lcd waterproof manufacturers

Released in June of 2015, the GoPro Hero+ LCD is covered by a grey waterproof casing with the logos under the lens. The GoPro Hero+ has a latch on top of the device that removes the casing, and allows access to the touchscreen. This camera also has a built in mount and three buttons that allow the user to control the camera without opening the casing. The Hero+ LCD edition came with new additions to the GoPro line such as: built in Bluetooth, WiFi, LCD display, and a touchscreen. The Bluetooth allows the user to use one"s phone or tablet as a remote to have full control over the camera"s functions. After capturing the video or photo, WiFi allows the users to upload their work or art to social media. Please be aware that these capabilities can only be used if the GoPro App is downloaded onto a smartphone or tablet.

GoPro has introduced the Hero+ LCD camera, sharing many features with the entry-level Hero with the addition of a touchscreen. The Hero+ LCD is waterproof to depths up to 40m/131 ft, and adds both Bluetooth and integrated Wi-F with support for the Android and iOS GoPro App. Videos can be recorded at up to 1080p/60, and 8MP still image capture is offered.

The Hero+ LCD"s features include HiLight Tagging for marking notable moments while recording or playing back footage, as well as in-camera video trimming for rapid editing and sharing without the use of a computer. Content can be shared directly to Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. Like the Hero, the Hero+ LCD offers a QuikCapture setting, allowing the user to power the device on and start recording with one button press. The battery allows for about two hours of recording per charge; microSD cards up to 64GB are supported.

The Hero+ LCD will launch in the United States at retailers and online on June 7 for $299.99 USD. The camera will then go on sale internationally on July 12.

SAN MATEO, CALIF. (June 1, 2015) – GoPro, Inc. (NASDAQ:GPRO), enabler of some of today"s most immersive and engaging content, has announced the availability of its new HERO+ LCD camera. Capturing life-like high definition 1080p60 video and 8MP photos, the HERO+ LCD features a convenient touch display for easy shot framing, settings control and access to an all-new in-camera video trimming feature. Like the entry-level HERO, the HERO+ LCD is built directly into its waterproof housing. The simplicity of this all-in-one design now combines with expanded features to make capturing life’s memorable moments easier than ever.

Rugged and waterproof to 131’ (40m), HERO+ LCD also includes advanced features like HiLight Tagging and in-camera video trimming to make it easier to identify and share your favorite moments. HiLight Tagging lets you mark key moments while recording and during playback so you can easily find them later, and the all-new video trimming feature allows you to create short clips in-camera for easier sharing without a computer.

Built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth® connect the HERO+ LCD to your GoPro App-enabled smartphone or tablet for easy camera control and shot preview when your camera is mounted or out of reach. The GoPro App also allows for easy content sharing to Instagram, Facebook, Twitter and more and combines with the new in-camera video trimming feature to form a convenient content sharing solution.

“HERO+ LCD illustrates that even as we push the limits of life capture with bleeding-edge devices like the HERO4 Black, we’re also focused on delivering accessible, high-quality capture solutions to anyone wanting to GoPro,” said Nick Woodman, founder and CEO of GoPro.

Whether you are a first-time user or a GoPro veteran, the HERO+ LCD is an impressive capture solution. It combines GoPro’s famed image quality, versatility and durability with WiFi connectivity, long battery life and touch display convenience in an all-in-one design.

HERO+ LCD will be available for purchase in the U.S. at authorized GoPro retailers and GoPro.com beginning June 7, 2015. International availability will begin July 12.

GoPro’s Hero action cameras are aimed squarely at the entry-level, leaving the more fully-featured Hero4 for serious film-makers. The Hero is still well-equipped and more than capable of capturing quality footage though. There are now three cameras in the Hero range: the GoPro Hero (around £94), GoPro Hero+ (around £169) and GoPro Hero+ LCD (around £199). The Hero+ gains Wi-Fi for pairing with an iOS and Android companion app, but the Hero+ LCD gets an LCD display too.

This gives you a live view for framing your video and photos, and lets you play back recorded clips, but also functions as a touchscreen. The LCD gives you a quick and easy way to adjust settings, as well as providing in-camera trimming so you can cut down videos to easily sharable sizes.

The camera will feel familiar to GoPro users, with the same typical three-button design. The power button is on the front, the shutter button on the top and a settings button the side. The side button is also used for “HiLight” favourites tagging when recording video, making it simple to mark important parts of your footage to make editing easier. You can also mark HiLights when you’re watching back video on the LCD display.

One of the biggest differences from the Hero4 is the non-removable waterproof case. Before the entry-level Hero arrived, every GoPro had a separate, detachable waterproof housing. With the Hero+ LCD, the casing is permanently fixed in place, which you might find a little unwieldy if you plan on using handheld gimbals designed for caseless action cameras.

The permanent case also increases the overall size, even when you’re not planning any aquatic escapades, but when you do get wet, the Hero+ LCD can survive being submerged to depths of 40m. The case is otherwise very rugged and will stand up to a good few knocks. As a whole, the Hero+ LCD weighs 127g - lighter than the 152g Hero4 Black. You get the usual array of curved and flat adhesive mounts, but the Hero+ range works with all of GoPro’s existing mount range.

Various different backdoors are included for the case, including one that will allow you to still access the touchscreen, but it’s worth noting that the touch backdoor is only waterproof to 10m. A skeleton backdoor can also be used that doesn’t obstruct the microphones as much for improved sound quality, but this isn’t dust or waterproof.

The Hero+ LCD might be more of an entry-level camera, but it’s still well-specified when it comes to video resolutions. It’s capable of up to 1080p video at 60fps, which is excellent for a sub-£200 camera - many are limited to 30fps. Where the Hero+ range is lacking is when it comes to higher frame rate video, which is useful for creating slow motion footage. The similarly-priced Veho Muvi K2NPNG allows for 720p video at 120fps. You’ll have to step up to the Hero4 Black to get 240fps video from a GoPro.

The Hero+ LCD is also capable of capturing 8-megapixel still images, in addition to a burst mode that rattles off 10 frames in 2 seconds. There’s also a time lapse photo mode, with intervals between 0.5s to 60s.

Footage captured from the Hero+ LCD was very crisp, with nice and vibrant colours and decent sharpness when given outdoor lighting. Under low light there’s a reasonable amount of noise, with the auto low-light function adjusting the frame rate dynamically to match lighting conditions. The resulting 8-megapixel still images captured a surprising amount of detail.

Battery life was excellent, matching the Veho Muvi K2 NPNG, which was one of the longest lasting action cameras we’ve tested. Shooting 1080p video at 30fps, the Hero+ LCD managed a fantastic 2 hours 27 minutes - significantly higher than the GoPro Hero4 Black. The battery isn’t removable, however, so there’s no swapping out batteries while you’re in the field.

As an entry-level GoPro, the Hero+ LCD is an excellent choice provided you don’t need the more advanced functionality of the full-blown Hero4. With not much money separating the Hero+ LCD and regular Hero+, the added convenience of a touchscreen display is definitely worth paying extra for.

The Muvi K2 NPNG has more included accessories (and support for GoPro mounts) but the Hero+ LCD has better image quality and a superior companion app. In any case, with both you’re getting very capable action cameras for not a lot of money.

The HD HERO also offered an expansion port on the camera"s rear panel, branded the HERO Bus. Optional accessories included the LCD Bakpac, which offered a small monitor that displayed and played back video, and the Battery Bakpac, which doubled the battery life of the camera.

The HERO3+ camera models claim dramatically improved low light performance and have a waterproof enclosure which is 20% lighter and 15% smaller than the HERO3"s, according to the GoPro website. The HERO3+ camera housing is 20% smaller than the HERO3. The cameras are claimed to have improved image sharpness (close focus down to 7" vs about 3 ft on the HERO3, at the expense of distant focus which is slightly less sharp

In September 2014, GoPro released an entry level camera named simply "HERO", priced at $130, alongside the HERO4 Black and HERO4 Silver. It is built into a waterproof housing, unlike the HERO4 line.

The GoPro HERO (2014) can capture 5mp still images and has a 5fps burst option. It is able to record 1080P at 30 or 25fps and 720P at 60 or 50fps on to a MicroSD card up to 32GB. It has an LCD non touch display on the front and is waterproof down to 40m.

In June 2015, the company started to sell the GoPro HERO+LCD, which provides video recording at 1080p at 60 fps and 8 megapixel photos. The HERO+LCD is also built into a waterproof housing.

The HERO8 Black largely introduced several new functions into the camera. Physically, the HERO8 Black now incorporates the connecting prongs that are used to connect accessories, directly onto the camera. Originally, the cameras would only be able to access the prongs if the cameras utilised either the frames (for cameras HERO5 to HERO7) or the protective cases for HERO4 and before. Moreover, the GoPro logo moved under the LCD screen to make way for extra microphones. More additions to the camera most notably were part of the software aspects of the camera. These included an option to switch between various settings presets, including standard, activity, cinematic and action shots and adjusting on-screen shortcuts of the user interface. Most notably as part of software, was the introduction of the night-lapse video, which similar to the time-lapse video mode, automatically stitches the frames captured by the camera at set intervals, however with the addition of improved low-light performance.

The HERO8 Black also attempts to address vloggers who may wish to use the GoPro in such a manner. As such, GoPro has also introduced an external accessory known as the "Media Mod" which includes a USB Type-C port for supplying power to external microphones and accessories, a micro-HDMI port and a 3.5mm microphone port. Moreover, the accessory includes a mount to connect either external microphones, LEDs or an LCD screen.

Today GoPro announced its latest action camera, the GoPro HERO+ LCD.  This marks the first time GoPro has done an ‘off-cycle’ release of a new camera product, as the company has historically released new action cams in the September/October timeframe.  It also bookends a rather busy week of announcements for the company.  Last week they announced both their intentions of launching a drone early next year, as well as their crazy 6-camera spherical mount system.  And that’s all before we talk about an apparent upcoming software update to start cloud sync of GoPro files to some sort of still unannounced internet service.  And don’t forget that even more crazy 16-camera virtual reality mount they built for Google.

The new GoPro HERO+ LCD is sorta exactly as the name implies: It’s the 2014 GoPro HERO…plus…an LCD screen.  Well, and connectivity over WiFi and Bluetooth Smart.

You’ll likely remember that the entry level GoPro HERO was $129US, and had a non-removable external case.  That meant that you couldn’t take it out of the case, which in turn meant you couldn’t add in any additional rear-attaching accessories such as the extra battery packs or LCD screen.

They also added in the WiFi and Bluetooth Smart compatibility.  Not for sensors, but rather for connecting to your mobile phone. This connectivity allows you to transfer photos and videos over to your phone, and then up to the interwebs.  Further, the HERO+ LCD includes the remote highlight tagging, which wasn’t available on the lower end model.  This means you can use the remote control to tag highlights so you can find them quicker later on during editing.

Finally, the camera has an internal editing capability, allowing you to slice the clips a bit better before transferring them.  This helps reduce the time to transfer video clips to your phone, making the process a little bit quicker.  This is planned to come to the HERO4 Silver later this summer, and the HERO4 Black as well (if you have bought the additional LCD back touchscreen).

The Hero+ LCD unit includes a few different back doors, so you can use it in wet environments and still touch the screen, as well as using an open door too.

Definitely an interesting market for sure.  For those curious about my recommendations – for 95% of folks it’ll likely shift from the Hero4 Silver to the HERO+ LCD, assuming there are no issues with it.  The reason being that if you’re using it for cycling and such, you can actually use your Garmin Edge device with the GoPro, inside of Garmin’s free VIRB Edit software suite – thus getting all the benefits of data overlays there (I suppose Garmin is probably happy you’re buying their device).  It’s really only if you’re doing direct to camera sensors and don’t already have a GPS device for speed/distance/pace/altitude that I’d recommend looking at the Garmin X/XE lineup.

Note: You can now order the Hero+ LCD via both Amazon and Clever Training.  While both sites help support the site here and all the work I do, by using Clever Training you’re also going to save 10% on your order with DCR Reader Coupon Code DCR10BTF – further, you’ll get free shipping within the US!

GoPro announced a quadcopter droneand two separate virtual reality camera rigs in the span of less than 24 hours last week. This week? It’s back to action cameras. Today GoPro has announced the Hero+ LCD, a new low-end option in the Hero line of action cameras. The camera goes on sale this Sunday, June 7th, and retails for $299.

The Hero+ LCD isn’t going to wow users with the ability to shoot extreme slow motion or 4K footage, but the specs are slightly better than what’s found on the relative bargain bin $129 Hero. The new camera shoots video up to a resolution of 1080p at 60 frames per second and photos at 8MP, and has an LCD touchscreen on the back — all improvements on the entry-level version. The rest is basically the same: it’s waterproof up to 40m (131’), has built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, and supports microSD cards up to 64GB.

While the price isn’t necessarily cheap, it fills the one obvious hole in GoPro’s line of products. With the Hero+ LCD, GoPro now sells its Hero4 line of cameras at prices of $129, $299, $399, and $499. Companies like Sony have tried competing with GoPro at the high end to mild success, but the best weapon for the likes of Garmin, Xiaomi, and even HTC, has been price — until now.

Full details are up on GoPro"s site. The Hero+ LCD is priced at $299.99 and will be available in the US on June 7 with international availability starting July 12. There were no details on price for the UK and Australia, but the price converts to roughly £200 and AU$400.

The GoPro HERO+ LCD expands upon the all-in-one design of the HERO model by adding the convenience of a built-in touchscreen LCD. Like the HERO, the HERO+ LCD is waterproof to depths of 131" without requiring a separate housing; simply secure the Touch Backdoor in place for a watertight seal. The camera also sees a boost in its imaging capabilities by offering 1080p video at up to 60 fps and 8MP still photos in single-shot, time-lapse, and 5 fps burst modes. Built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth lets you connect the camera to the GoPro Smart Remote or to the GoPro App on your mobile device for shot preview, complete camera control, and easy content sharing to social media sites.

In addition to a Touch Backdoor, a Skeleton Backdoor is included for use on dry land, which features cutouts for improved audio capture using the built-in microphone. Also included with the HERO+ LCD are flat and curved adhesive mounts for surfboards, helmets, boats, and other smooth surfaces, as well as a quick release buckle that clips in and out of them. Apart from these, the camera can be used with a range of separately available mounting hardware for adaptation to just about any scenario.
