GoPro Hero6 Black: 4K a 60 fps e stabilizzazione senza precedenti si paga 570€ (foto)

Giornata di importanti novità oggi per GoPro e tra queste c'è anche la nuova action cam Hero 6 Black. A poco più di un anno dal lancio della Hero5, l'azienda è quindi pronta con la Hero6 Black che debutta di fianco a GoPro Fusion, rinnovandosi principalmente in termini di feature sotto la scocca.

GoPro Hero6 Black: caratteristiche tecniche, video 4K a 60 fps

Seguendo i passi della concorrenza, GoPro Hero6 Black si aggiorna in termini di capacità video offrendo così la possibilità di girare fino in 4K a 60 fps oppure se si scende a 1080p si arriva a ben 240 fps.

Il tutto grazie al nuovo processore GP1 che gestisce il sensore da 12 megapixel (stessa risoluzione della Hero5 Black) "permettendo il doppio del frame rate, qualità d'immagine migliorata (condizioni di scarsa luce, gamma dinamica più ampia) e stabilizzazione drasticamente migliorata

Il design resta invariato, cosa necessaria anche a conservare la compatibilità con tutti gli accessori compreso il drone Karma (qui le novità per il drone); anche l'impermeabilità senza custodia esterna fino a 10 metri di immersione resta.

Di seguito le feature principali della Hero6 Black:

  • Processore GP1, sviluppato da GoPro
  • Video 4K 60fps e 1080p 240 fps
  • Compatibilità con QuikStories ed app GoPro
  • La migliore stabilizzazione vista su una Hero
  • Funzione touch zoom
  • Velocità di trasferimento triplicata su rete Wi-Fi 5 Ghz
  • Impermeabilità alle immersioni fino a 10 metri di profondità
  • Compatibilità con GoPro Karma e accessori GoPro Mount
  • Gamma dinamica e performance con poca luce migliorate
  • Foto RAW ed HDR photo
  • Controlli vocali in 10 lingue
  • GPS, accelerometro, giroscopio
  • Wi-Fi e Bluetooth
