capediver Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 Great upgrade! Only bust is battery is different so all those spares you got for 3 and 3+ are no good! Otherwise all previous housings and mounts same as 3+. GLuvsMtb 1
Barry Stuart Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 That Hero4 Black is impressive but R7500! That's getting into body parts territory.
patches Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 (edited) That Hero4 Black is impressive but R7500! That's getting into body parts territory. Nope, it has the same housing as the 3+ so still too big to be used for colonoscopies. Edited October 10, 2014 by patches V12man and Traverse 2
Bizkit031 Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 Pricing is crazy and there are very,very few 4k televisions around and the ones that are are a hell of a price,the base model Hero4 is gonna be a big seller.
Cam182 Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 I would love to see a poll of how many owners actually record in 4k and use it. Surely most people would be happy with 1080p and would prefer upgrades in battery life/image quality Compared to these new prices... for R999 that sony as15 camera i picked up was a steal.

capediver Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 Been battling to find good video players for 4K and actually found the new GoPro Studio is only one which could play raw 4k 30fps footage. Editing software will also be able to take advantage of the 4K when cropping and rendering to HD but needs serious RAM and processing power! The big plus for me is the Night mode improvements and 1080 120fps upgrade so HD slomo should look great....
Traverse Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 I just ordered a GoPro 4 Silver edt. from CRC for R4742
sawystertrance Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 I seem to remember reading that the Hero4 had image stabilisation capabilities in it. Is this so?
sawystertrance Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 I just ordered a GoPro 4 Silver edt. from CRC for R4742 How much (percentage-wise) is the import duty?
Traverse Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 How much (percentage-wise) is the import duty?Last time I ordered something from them I didn't pay any duty fees, I used DHL and they delivered at my work. But I'll keep you posted!
sawystertrance Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 Last time I ordered something from them I didn't pay any duty fees, I used DHL and they delivered at my work. But I'll keep you posted!..So you think that price of R4742 is all in? cool.
Traverse Posted November 13, 2014 Posted November 13, 2014 ..So you think that price of R4742 is all in? cool.I paid R240 extra for DHL Express delivery!
