![]() The Session is one of the smallest action cameras on the market. Dozens and dozens of mounts to attach it to almost anything imaginable.Wifi and Bluetooth allows you to control the Session via your tablet or smartphone.One Button Timelapse out of the box, easy to adjust via the camera or the GoPro app on your phone.One Button Video Recording - and push it once more to stop recording and turn the camera off.It takes crisp 1080 HD Videos, makes pretty Timelapses and photos from your activities, and lets you easily share them. The GoPro HERO4 Session’s function is summed up pretty easily: Document your adventures, be they skiing in Lyngen, climbing in Greece, hiking in Finland or enjoying the beach with your family. As the Session 5 was just announced last week I felt it is about time to review this wee camera cube (though GoPro wished I’d done it ages ago =). The HERO4 Session arrived in February at Hiking in Finland HQ and has been along ski-touring in Norway, hiking, paddling and caving in Macedonia, bouldering and sea kayaking on Åland and climbing, hiking and watching the sun set in Greece, and comes with me when I am going to South Tyrol next month and most likely also to Mexico in November. TimeĪs usually I put my HERO4 Session through a serious testing period to see how it performs in many different situations. As a Photographer video is usually just a side-consideration for me, but as I am pondering videos more seriously it is nice to have a small, light and good video camera. While my experience with the GoPro Hero 2 was more like Meh and also the Garmin Virb was something I seldom would take along, I have had the HERO4 Session a lot outdoors in the last months. I met GoPro at the ISPO earlier this year and had a nice chat with them, and when they asked if I’d be interested in testing their HERO4 Session I said yes. ![]() Samsung Pro Plus, not the Samsung Pro) are on the GoPro "recommended" list.Small, rugged, ultralight 71 g, waterproof out of the box, can be controlled with your phone and is pretty affordable - with the HERO4 Session GoPro has created a great little action camera for active outdoor enthusiasts! Additionally, only the higher end cards (i.e. I do not want to buy a card with equivalent performance to what I already have. Sandisk Extreme Pro 64GB - Class U3 ($52.00)Īt this point I'm not too enthralled with buying another Sandisk, and my understanding is that the U1 classification on some of these is identical to the "Class 10" of the similar cards, which is what I currently have in my Sandisk Ultra 64GB. Samsung Pro Plus 64GB - Class U3 ($52.99) However, if I do, I want to be absolutely certain that I'm not going to encounter any issues, henceforth. I experienced a similar issue with the Hero 2 and another Sandisk SD card that again, met the requirements dictated by GoPro. Has anyone else experienced this issue? I am having Sandisk replace the card (they asked for proof of destruction), but I am pretty fed up with SD card issues and my GoPro cameras. Again, I am not shooting in 4K (Session maxes out at 1440/1080), so I do not understand why the card I am using is faltering. This card is a Class 10, which meets the requirements of the camera, and I am shooting mainly in 1080 at 60fps. Since the camera was completely frozen, the only way to turn it off was to hold down the buttons for 5 seconds and power it off (in a hard fashion).īased on what GoPro support has said, this is solely a Micro SD issue. It would be unresponsive to button input, and the file that it was recording would be lost. Occasionally the camera would stop recording in the middle of a shoot, and then freeze up. I've had the Hero 4 Session for almost a year, and have had a few hiccups with the camera over the course of that year.
