In 2015, we finally get the smaller GoPro we&#8217;ve been waiting for. Here are the details.<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">After years of <strong>GoPro<\/strong> videos taking us to places unseen, we&#8217;ve come to the point where <strong>GoPro<\/strong> videos are underwhelming.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/PjGkVCAo8Fw?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The <strong>GoPro Hero4 Session<\/strong> is exactly the GoPro we wanted in 2011 when the <strong>GoPro HD HERO2<\/strong> was released. A smaller camera with the same punch.\u00a0GoPro has (allegedly) been working on a smaller cube camera since 2011, but they have already since been passed in size by similar action cameras like the <a title=\"Polaroid Cube\" href=\"http:\/\/www.polaroid.com\/cube\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">Polaroid Cube<\/a>. The Cube came out last year, and, with a <strong>$99 price tag,<\/strong> it was aimed towards average consumers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Starting at <a title=\"GoPro Hero4 Session $399.99\" href=\"http:\/\/shop.gopro.com\/hero4\/hero4-session-surf\/CHDSS-101.html\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">$399.99<\/a>, the <strong>HERO4 Session<\/strong> offers one button control video rates at <strong>1440p30, 1080p60 and 720p100.<\/strong> Still photos actually take a step back to\u00a0<span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>8MP with 10fps bursts<\/strong>. The current full size HERO4 offers <strong>12MP<\/strong>.

One on the front of the camera and one on the back. When filming in windy conditions, the camera will automatically switch to the mic best-suited for capturing audio.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span style=\"color: #222222;\"><strong>GoPro<\/strong> mentioned that the\u00a0Session will mount on the company\u2019s <a title=\"GoPro drone announcement\" href=\"http:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/multi-rotor-gopro-drone-to-be-unveiled-at-ces\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">upcoming\u00a0drone<\/a>, which\u00a0should be coming out\u00a0next year. Other drone manufactures, like DJI, have already attempted to ditch <strong>GoPro cameras<\/strong> in favor of their own cameras. DJI introduced their <a title=\"DJI Camera\" href=\"http:\/\/www.bhphotovideo.com\/bnh\/controller\/home?O=&amp;sku=1117422&amp;gclid=CIKo6OCAx8YCFQGqaQodmx8LTg&amp;is=REG&amp;m=Y&amp;A=details&amp;Q=\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\">4K camera and gimbal<\/a> with the Inspire 1. <strong>GoPro<\/strong> certainly has come catching up to do.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-59055 size-full\" title=\" GoPro Hero4 Session in hand.\" src=\"https:\/\/pbblogassets.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2015\/07\/GoPro-PB-Hand.jpg\" alt=\" GoPro Hero4 Session in hand.\" width=\"755\" height=\"401\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/GoPro-PB-Hand.jpg 755w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/GoPro-PB-Hand.jpg?resize=300,159 300w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/GoPro-PB-Hand.jpg?resize=277,147 277w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/GoPro-PB-Hand.jpg?resize=359,191 359w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/GoPro-PB-Hand.jpg?resize=543,288 543w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/GoPro-PB-Hand.jpg?resize=560,297 560w, https:\/\/vip-go.premiumbeat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/GoPro-PB-Hand.jpg?resize=150,80 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 755px) 100vw, 755px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">It&#8217;s easy to assume that <strong>GoPro<\/strong> may have been feeling pressure from partners\u00a0to finally release a smaller camera. The <a title=\"NHL Home\" href=\"http:\/\/www.nhl.com\/ice\/news.htm?id=750014\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">National Hockey League<\/a> partnered with <strong>GoPro<\/strong> in January 2015. If they truly seek their goal of referees (and someday players) wearing the cameras in game, we are still a ways off from seeing that happen.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\">Overall, the<strong> HERO4 Session<\/strong> is a much needed update to the <strong>GoPro<\/strong> line. The camera should help them stay atop the action camera market.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Check back here on the\u00a0<\/span><a style=\"color: #c3a16c;\" title=\"PremiumBeat Blog\" href=\"http:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">PremiumBeat blog<\/a><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00a0for more\u00a0news about <a title=\"Filmmaking Content on PremiumBeat\" href=\"http:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/category\/video-production-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">filmmaking<\/a>, <a title=\"Video Editing Content on PremiumBeat\" href=\"http:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/category\/video-editing\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">editing<\/a>, and <a title=\"Motion Graphics Content on PremiumBeat\" href=\"http:\/\/www.premiumbeat.com\/blog\/category\/motion-graphics-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">motion graphics<\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><strong>Have thoughts on the latest from GoPro?
