HD HERO

Coming from a gopro HD hero 1 (2010-2011) I was in the market for a 360 camera. Insta one rs was the only one that you could assemble as a 360 or a standard 4k camera, so I've gone with it. But even if I was coming from an ancient camera, there were a lot of things that I preferred the gopro way.. If there was a modular camera from gopro I would have gone with them no doubt. 

That’s good info, thanks. I think I’m getting the Hero 13 and see from there. I had the Hero HD 1 ages ago and am curious to see what has changed first hand

dont give gopro anymore $ till they release an actually good product. insta, and DJI out perform them, and they dont DELETE YOUR FOOTAGE FOR NO REASON

i've used action cameras for almost 18 years now? and ive used all the major brands, GoPro more than ANY other. and from the hero -until the 12 black every single one at one point or another simply corrupted/deleted a whole days of videos. I've used DJI cameras from their little cube thing, to teh action 3 (i dont have the latest ones) and ive not lost any video recorded. same with Insta of what ive tested (i cannot speak to the newer 360's or the newer go 3s as ive not had them in hand to test) i will not give GoPro another single $ until they figure out wtf happens where it corrupts/deletes videos. its a useless camera if it cant save a video.

For me GoPro always had the best mic/audio balance. insta always sounded baseless and sucked at eliminating wind noise as well
