    Just what my daughter wanted. I'm glad I went with the 8, it has some cool features ... I just wish the battery would last a little longer

    Awesome portable camera/video! Hands down one of the best devices for action videos. Rugged little video camera. Very versatile. With the right mounts, could practically be stuck anywhere. I have been using this for several months now and the picture and sound is crystal clear even in the rain. I have had other cheaper brands, but nothing compare to the best. Easy to carry in back pack, bag, mounted, etc. Highly recommend purchasing for a gift or treat yourself!

    I'd been holding off for a while, waiting for a GoPro that I thought I'd be satisfied with and not want to upgrade. This is it. How they can pack such great features and function into such a little body is pretty amazing. The video quality is stunning, and the image stabilization is incredible. It's great for travel and anything else outdoors. It's worth every penny. The touchscreen controls take a little bit of time to get used to, and it REALLY helps to read the manual to understand the settings.

    I got this camera as an upgrade from my GoPro Hero 3+ Back and this Hero 8 Black is fantastic! This was a multi generation jump and the features it has is great. I use this camera for when I go road cycling and when im traveling and do not want to take out my big mirrorless camera. This camera has great quality when you have the settings needed for your environment. The power on and record shutter activation is just what I wanted.
