2020-09-16 - 1 serious question about the GoPro Hero9
Season 5 - Episode 25 - 09-16-2020
Casey takes his hair trimmer to shave the sides of his head. Car drive (with parking ticket still attached) with a big gopro box at the back of his truck. HE goes in the forest to find a quiet place with a picnic table to unbox it. Tech review. Every year Casey asks himself "why". Why buy a new gopro when there are already previous generations which are perfectly usable and now he has a cellphone with an ultra wide angle lens and is waterproof. Image quality between a $6000 Sony camera rig (with 12-24 f/2.8) and a $450 gopro. Front facing screen, at last! it is bigger and heavier than the previous version. It used to be the opposite, with the gopro session for example. This time the battery is bigger. Gopro has learned a lot in 9 generation vs the competition. Last year Gopro had a launch event at a water park, this year with the pandemic they just send a box with... a Gopro dune buggy RC car. Casey plays with the buggy in the forest and in his garden and on the street with the kids. Test during a surf session. It has interchangeable lenses. Should you buy one? It depends if you went excellence or just good enough. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nk0aCRuU2qw
