Features

Introduction of GoPro's Exclusive Stabilization Technology "HyperSmooth"

While stabilization technology was available in GoPro HERO6, HERO7 introduced the more advanced stabilization technology called "HyperSmooth." By utilizing advanced scene analysis and roller shutter correction algorithms, it predicts motion frame by frame to achieve remarkable stabilization.

With "HyperSmooth," capturing stable footage as if using a gimbal becomes possible, enabling cleaner shooting even in more significant action scenes.

Introduction of Live Streaming Feature ("Black" Model Only)

The top-tier model of HERO7, "HERO7 Black," introduced the "Live Streaming" feature, usable for live broadcasting on social media platforms for the first time.

With the ability to live stream during action scenes or before/after shooting, it transforms the camera into a versatile tool for live broadcasting on social media platforms.

Three-Model Lineup for Versatile Options

Until HERO4, GoPro offered multiple grades within a series based on specifications. However, from HERO5 to HERO6, only the top-tier "Black" model was available.

With HERO7, the lineup expanded to include "Black," "Silver," and "White" models, offering a range of choices to suit various preferences.
