Insta360 smashes the GoPro.... They are being left behind.... Are we seeing another Nokia

The mounts with the screws are fine - chest mounts, head mounts, etc - all okay otherwise people would’ve been moaning a lot. It’s a system that has worked well for many years and god knows how many mounts there are out there. Whether it’s a 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8 the mounts are still compatible. However, anything like diving cases, domes, vlogging housings, silicone covers, etc will not be compatible because the GoPro Hero 8’s dimension/shape is a bit bigger than the 7 and that’s annoying for someone like me because I have a diving case and GoPro dome that I would have to sell if I was to upgrade from my Hero 7. The Hero 5, 6 and 7 share the same camera body, but then with the 8 they just had to go and make it a tad bit bigger.

If the budget allows I would go for the 8. Being able to record 120fps with Hypersmooth is a feature which I would love. Of course it depends on what deal you can find on the GPH7B vs deals on the GPH8B. All in all though the 7 is a brilliant piece of kit and I will be keeping mine when the 9 comes out. Will use my GPH7B for time lapses and long recording and the GPH9B for on the go cinematic stuff.

If you have GoPro 7, it’s not worth it in my view. For example: The lens cover is not replaceable in 8 and any scratch usually is not serviceable. I have installed glass screen protectors for my GoPro 8

Good to know, thanks!

This item does not ship to Northern Ireland 😔 have some heat 🔥 great deal.. I need one's for a Hero4 black if anyone has a deal 🤝 🙏🏼

Had £3 credit from when I bought this the other day which takes it to £2.99, and selected no rush for a £1 voucher. Effectively £1.99, unreal, thanks (highfive)

"This is definitely not for everyone". Yep, I must have missed all those thousands of deals that were for everyone.

Credit added to amazon account to be used against future purchases, so worth noting you’ll still pay £6.99. Bargain. Just ordered using the no rush delivery, due Friday (y)

For anyone wondering, here’s the GoPro response to using Hero5 batteries in a Hero8 GoPro Customer Service answer: Yes, about your 1st question, you can use the battery with Blue on the bottom using your old charger. Yes you can use the old batteries of your HERO5 and Hero 7 with the HERO8 but you will not be able to experience the Hypersmooth 2.0., or it is somehow disabled. For some reason, only the Battery with Blue at the bottom will be able to deliver the Hypersmooth 2.0 flawlessly

I’ve not tried, but I’d assume so. The 2018 and hero 5 are exactly the same cameras inside the body. The only difference is that they restrict the features on a 2018 via firmware. How to upgrade GoPro 2018 to Hero 5 2018 and Hero 5 Specs

If you do that can you then use a remote with it ? :/ Thanks

They should give them free with masks.

Great video! What do you use for editing, and what are you using currently to film with?

Good videos, nice editing. You need a Hero 8 Black at least, Hypersmooth is not available for the White.

Thank you

I haven't had many issues with mine, bought recently.

Have the issues with gopro 7 been resolved or does it still suffer from freezing and battery issues? Thanks

I would look at YouTube videos of Action VS Hero 8.

Seems good to me. But I have no experience with GoPro. I would look at YouTube videos of Action VS Hero 8.

This has been £22.99 a few times this year. Not a bad price, but this is about the norm now.

Looks lovely Loxell <3

Good bit of kit, but this is the normal price. Often found for less.

It’s always this price?

A second hand go-pro?

Yes the stabilisation on the campark x20 isn’t great , wasn’t expecting it to be any good, audio is pretty good and the 1080p is very sharp and produces good film . So static on a tripod it’s perfect . On a bike or snorkelling it will be good , just not great for walking around or vlogging.

I bought the same one and went to look at the thread on here but it vanished! I'm still trying to make up my mind on it. I was hoping for a little more on the stabilisation side (as in, I'd like to see some) , but the fact it takes generic batteries is super handy and it doesn't output in a weird file type like my old cam means I think for the money, I'll keep it. I went bother with 4k, 1080p is more than enough

Can anyone recommend the cheapest alternative to a GoPro under £100, possibly below £80?

Think you be better off saving £12.99 (lol)

Like what? Looking to buy one, just want to judge best value for money? Thx

I agree. Get the black version so that you get more features and can swap out the battery

Pay a bit more and go for the black 7. Much more futures

just look better is write clearly ... £329.99£429.9923%Free P&PGoPro Shop Deals

Thanks @PhoneManiacuk Don't forget to include the price and the merchant in the thread title.

Hello, newbie here. Would anyone be able to explain, very simply, what the difference is between the Hero7 black and the Hero8 black is please?

I ordered one a week ago, never received a confirmation email, was charged the price to my bank account. Talked to GoPro customer service and they said they can’t find the order. Really looking a GoPro but so far a bad experience when trying to buy one... still waiting for them to get back to me about what’s happening.

The exact reason I just bought the 7 myself from John Lewis, same price as GoPro direct, you get a 2 year warranty but don’t get the memory card, which is probably about £10 at most.

Thanks for that - shame for anyone who doesn't catch on to this and effectively gives them a free older cam.

No it’s not - I asked their online chat, you get £100 off the list price. So it’s still £279 but you don’t get the sdcard. It’s on old deal they haven’t updated or removed.

Why is this cold? I have the Max and looking for the charger. It's £65 at Gopro, has anyone found it cheaper before I order it?
