GoPro Hero Session
The GoPro Hero 4 Session is a powerful and very compact piece of kit. At half the size of the Hero 4 cameras and weighing in at just 74g this is a low profile cam to fit almost anywhere you can think of. There is no waterproof casing needed as the Session is fully waterproof to a depth of 10m.
GoPro have left the old rectangular design behind in favour of a cube. Your session comes with two frame mounts, a standard upright and a new tighter mount that can fit close-up against any surface. You can fit the Session to more unique and exciting places on your frame. Aero conscious riders still wanting to capture their rides will find the lower profile a real benefit.
When mounting, whichever way you position the Hero 4 Session will auto adjust to film the right side up. Front and rear mics provide excellent audio quality. If you’re riding into the wind, the rear mic kicks into gear. These mics are also built to drain water quickly so swimmers and triathletes coming out of water can catch crisp audio.
Battery life is very impressive for its size. When the Session isn’t recording the camera is fully powered off. Over the course of a day this can really save battery.
GoPro created the Session for ease of use. You simply pick the camera up and head out on a ride without having to worry about how or where you’re going to shoot your footage. All previous GoPro mounts are compatible and they are developing a new range specifically for the Session so you can get more creative.
