    As an older guy who wants to modernize I wanted in on the vlog craze. This GoPro 8 was my “starter camera” but I was pleasantly surprised with the features and clarity. It’s lightweight..portable and recorded lovely. Very happy with purchase.

    The camera works well. The only flaw we have found is the battery does not hold a charge for long. We fully charge the battery and then when we take a motorcycle ride it does not last longer than an hour and a half. Very disappointed with that.

    Mostly ratings my visit at best buy. product is great Just wish the guy was more focused on letting us know we need an SD card rather than the accessories. Got all the way to Mexico for my dads 50th birthday with a headband, waterproof case, etc and we were on the boat and I decided to turn it on and it said there was no SD card inserted so I couldn’t even use it.

    Love this camera. I've been shooting in 4K Cinematic mode and have been thrilled with the results in terms of color, clarity and resolution -- both on interior and exterior shoots. My only concern is that the camera can become hot to the touch with steady use, but that has not diminished its overall performance.
