Smart-Rating: 4.9/5 (Click for Reviews)

Is this the best price?

GoPro’s HERO10 Black Edition is one of the top 4K action camera on the market. The big feature is a full color touchscreen in the front window of the Hero10 Black (with live preview. The other huge feature is HyperSmooth 4 image stabilization, which is a breakthrough in stabilization technology. Action cams are made to be in shaky environments, and image stabilization is key. All-new powerful GP2 processor allows new and more powerful features including better low light performance, higher framerates, and higher resolution(5.3k) video modes.

The HERO10 Black also can shoot up to 4K120 video (4K at 120fps). HyperSmooth 4.0 works, even at this high resolution and framerate. For many applications the HyperSmooth will replace a gimbal for stabilization. Another newer feature is Time Warp Video 3 which is a time lapse movie, that uses HyperSmooth to give you a much smoother and less jittier time lapse movie. Both of these technologies are readily superior when compared to prior models. A new Live Streaming application allows you to show streaming live video to social media like Facebook.
