When it comes to professional action videos, there's usually one camera that will immediately come to mind, and that is a GoPro. One of the first and tiniest professional cameras with quality video recording, GoPro has always catered in being an eye to the action world, be it by enthusiasts,...

Had a GoPro Hero 3 Black previously and upgraded to this one. It has been a worthy upgrade with lost of excellent new features such as now having a built i n screen, waterproof without a case and also smooth 4k recording.

The Hero5 Black is an excellent action cam. However, the battery life is not the best and will require you to purchase additional batteries to swap out. The picture shown for this item is inaccurate because it does not come with the "Super Suit" clear housing... this comes with just the "Frame".

So far it has done everything well - but I have yet to test 'waterproof down to 10m' claim

I have large hands - it is inevitable therefore that loading micro-SD card etc; is a fiddly operation (for me); However that is not the fault of the camera..

GoPro's 4K and HD action cameras are some of the best known devices of their kind on sale today and with good reason. Whatever financial problems the company behind them may be having with its stock prices and profit margins, it never stopped making some damn fine camera technology as far as we've...

Superb; rugged physical construction; Built-in waterproofing down to 35 feet (10 meters; Excellent 4K video and 12 megapixel still shots; Electronic image stabilization; 2 inch LCD touch screen for easier controls; Multiple video resolutions and reduced fish-eye effect

Video color saturation still a bit muted; Battery could use a bit more life; Incompatible with some Hero 4 accessories; Some touchscreen controls are sluggish

The hero 5 is much better of an upgrade than the hero 4. The 5 has great audio and it is great for pictures and videos. In the video you can actual hear people talking also there are external mic ports.

Good quality Good audio Voice control External mic ports

If you ask us the GoPro HERO5 Black is the best action camera of 2017. To be clear, there's a lot GoPro could make better on the HERO 5 Black and in certain categories we would prefer other cameras, but overall it is the best one out there.

Up to 4K at 30fps; Image stabilization; Water resistant to 10ATM; Voice commands; LCD touchscreen

Disappointing battery life; Microphone not as good as Hero4; New software can be buggy; Does not float

The camera is outstanding.Being my first gopro5 i love how it gave me such an Wide angle view maybe i was expecting the picture quality to be better but thats the best you get in a Action cam packed with many other features.voice commands are awesome.

This is my 3rd GoPro, my first was a very early version and is still being used, but you have to download to the computer and this is time consuming. My second has been lost, GoPro4.

The new design of the Hero 5 Black is fantastic. The rubberised exterior makes it easy to hold and it helps the cameras shock-proofing,.The Hero 5 Black feels solidly constructed.I have used the Hero 5 Black for months now and its build quality has stood up to the bumps and knocks.Not needing a...

Easy to use; Compact; Build quality
