![]() One last thing to mention is a side door that’s tightly sealed from the elements. ![]() The front metal rim around the camera also has a small loop around one corner through which you can attach a small wire if you wish to have a backup secure fastening. There are groves cut in the microphone holes that let the water escape quickly for better performance. There are two microphones built into the body, one on the front and one on the back. I suspect this is why GoPro called this model Session. ![]() Once the charge is depleted you need to charge the unit which means it will be out of action. You can no longer replace batteries on the go. Another big design change Session has undergone is the built-in battery. As with majority of Hero cameras, Hero 4 Session does not have a preview display screen and no attachment screen support, so if you want to see what you are filming you’ll need to use GoPro App on a mobile device.īuilt-in battery. The screen is so bright that in my testing I’ve never had a problem reading it in complete darkness or direct sunlight. It’s a bit smaller than the original, but new LED is a huge improvement. Hero 4 Session now also features a new display. The other smaller button is located in the lower back of the unit and acts as setting info toggle and Wi-Fi control. This is a bit disappointing because a lot can happen within those 4 seconds, especially so when you’re shooting action. The camera essentially turns itself on when you start capture and off when you finish it, meaning that it now takes a little longer to start recording, on average about 4 seconds to start recording after the button is pressed. As single press will start video recording, while a 3 second press starts a time-lapse capture. The main button is situated right on top and acts as the main record button. Unlike the previous models, Hero 4 Session only has 2 buttons. In fact, if you’ve been recording for longer than a few minutes, the rim gets so hot that you can easily sustain a minor burn, especially if you have very sensitive skin.Ĭontrols. I suspect the metallic rim also acts as a heatsink that cools off the processor and therefore gets really hot when camera is in use. The front of the camera, on the other hand, is all glass with a metallic rim going around it. However it’s much more prone to scratches. The body of Hero4 Session is covered in rubber that has a nice slight ribbed textured feel to it, so if you are hand holding it in your hand it will be less likely to slip. As I have mentioned earlier, the body itself is now fully waterproof, so there is no need for an additional case that encapsulates the unit. While the cube form itself is not technically aerodynamic, the Session is 50% smaller and 40% lighter than previous Hero models and thus it is noticeably more adapt to all kinds of fast pace action. The new Hero 4 Session radically steps away from this design in favor of a more compact cube form. Not only does it look goofy when mounted onto a helmet, but it can actually throw your balance way off. ![]() Let’s face it it’s not the most aerodynamic shape out there. Those who know GoPro Hero cameras know them by their trademark rectangular grey body that used to house in the front a small screen and button. Get GoPro Hero4 Session from Amazon right now.
