The larger sensor and processor also enable higher resolution still frame grabs.įor instance, if you shoot at 5K in 4:3 ratio you can export a still 19.6-megapixel frame. What's more useful is that it can shoot 4K at up to 120fps, versus 60fps on the Hero 9.

While the Hero 9 could record 5.3K video up to 30fps, the Hero 10 can shoot that resolution at 60fps. What that means is that - thanks in part to the new GP2 processor - it can shoot at twice the frame rate. When it comes to video capture, GoPro's latest camera boasts twice the performance of its predecessor.
Hero 3 spec mods#
What's more, the Hero 10 is compatible with all Hero 9 Black Mods like the additional lights, microphones and display. Plus, they both have the built-in mounting arms on the underside, meaning you don't need any additional cases to mount it to GoPro accessories. The outer frame of the camera is darker and has a slightly rougher texture, and it is about 5 grams lighter. Otherwise, it's practically identical.īoth cameras are waterproof to the same 10 metre/33ft depth, and both have the same battery door design on the one side and water channel on the other. You'll also see reduced ghosting with video shot through it.įrom a purely visual point, the only real difference is that GoPro's logo on the front and the Hero logo on the side is bright blue instead of white. Not only is it more scratch resistant than the Hero 9's, it's also more hydrophobic so that water will glide off it more easily. Speaking of lens covers, the new Hero 10 cover has been redesigned to make it more durable. It also added a new removable lens cover, making it easier to swap it out for a different lens or a new one if the original one brakes. With the 2020 model, GoPro made the camera bigger and added a colour display to the front so that you could use it for framing yourself. That's unsurprising though, especially since the Hero 9 Black was the first major design change in a number of years. It's in the design that we see very little different between these two models.
Hero 3 spec upgrade#
So what exactly has changed between the Hero 9 and Hero 10, and should you upgrade to the new model? Find out more below.

However, its new GP2 processor has enabled much more powerful performance with higher frame rates and better low light performance. So it was unlikely GoPro would rip it all up and start again with another entirely new design. When the company announced the Hero 9 Black in 2020, it came with a whole new design, a second colour screen and lots of great features.

It looks very much like the Hero 9 that came before it, but comes with a host of new features and capabilities. (Pocket-lint) - GoPro has recently announced a new camera called the Hero 10 Black.
