We know the GoPro Hero11 Black launch is imminent, but apparently, there will also be a GoPro Hero11 Black Mini action camera. It appears to be slightly smaller than the standard model, yet should still be compatible with all of the Hero11 Black, Hero10 Black, and Hero9 Black accessories. One downside to being this small is a reduced capacity battery, which should be under 1720mAh (Hero10 Black).
NanoAvionics has captured the world’s first 4K satellite selfie in space using a basic consumer camera, mounted on a selfie stick above the Great Barrier Reef, complete with an immersive view of Earth. More specifically, a GoPro Hero 7 was used to take 12-megapixel photos and 4K video clips of the company’s MP42 microsatellite flying 550 km above the Coral Sea.

Victor Čech, a nature photographer from Slovakia, set out to make a video journal about foxes, but discovered that his GoPro Hero 9 Black was not in its original spot. So, he removed the memory card and reviewed the footage, only to find that it was just a group of curious baby foxes that may have confused it for food.
When DJI’s FPV Combo is combined with GoPro’s new HERO10 Black Bones, cinematic footage ensues. This is the lightest action camera yet from the company and designed specifically to be the ultimate FPV (First Person View) drone camera. Featuring GoPro’s high-performance GP2 processor and HyperSmooth 4.0 to deliver the same amazing image quality as HERO10 Black, but in a lightweight enclosure for FPV use.

New Zealand’s Fiordlands is home to the Kea parrot species, and those who have encountered them probably already know that they are mischievous by nature. One of these birds proved that by snagging the Verhuel family’s GoPro camera when they weren’t paying attention, as they were taking a break from a hiking trip along the Keplar Track. The device was placed on a fence to capture video of the wildlife, that is until…it went on a short journey.
Wingsuit flying is dangerous enough when you’re out in a wide open field, but imagine buzzing the Pyramids of Giza? Considering there are typically no parachutes, just a wetted area on the diver’s body to generate increased lift, flying this close to a natural wonder of the world is death defying to say the least. However, that’s exactly what Fred Fugen, Vincent Cotte, and Mike Swanson decided to do.
After a summer of rumors, the GoPro HERO10 Black is now official, and the upgrades have mostly been internal, starting with the high-performance GP2 processor. This new chip delivers far improved image quality and quick video frame rates that enable it to capture ultra smooth 5.3K video at 60 frames per second, 4K video at 120 frames per second and 2.7K video at an a silky 240 frames per second.

GoPro action cameras have been around in 2004, and since that time, many rumors have been circulating about Apple acquiring the company, but none have come to fruition. If the iPhone maker did make their own action camera, it might look something like the AirCam, which sports an Apple Watch-like display up front for taking selfies.
