GoPro HERO8 Black Action Camera (4K60, Waterproof)

Rugged 4K action camera you can take anywhere

A pocket-sized GoPro HERO8 Black action camera that shoots up to 4K60 with HyperSmooth 2.0 stabilisation and is waterproof to 10 metres without a case.

It clips onto helmets, chests, bikes and poles straight out of the pouch.

The GoPro HERO8 Black is a compact, rugged action camera built for hands-free point-of-view capture in tough conditions.

It records video up to 4K at 60fps, 2.7K at 120fps and 1080p at 240fps for smooth slow motion, and takes 12MP stills, so you get sharp, wide footage from a camera small enough to fit in a pocket.

The body is waterproof to 10 metres without any external housing, which means you can film in rain, at the beach, in the pool and while snorkelling with no extra kit.

It weighs about 126 grams and takes a removable rechargeable battery, a USB-C charge cable and a microSD card.

What sets this model apart is HyperSmooth 2.0 stabilisation, which delivers gimbal-like smoothing on every resolution and frame rate, so handheld and mounted shots stay steady even on a bike or a moving vehicle.

It also has built-in folding mounting fingers that clip straight onto GoPro mounts, so there is no separate frame to lose, plus four digital lens modes and Wi-Fi and Bluetooth for quick preview and transfer to the GoPro app.

For Sri Lankan renters it is an affordable, versatile action cam for travel, vlogging, watersports and event b-roll, and a low-cost way to add a POV angle to a bigger shoot without buying a camera you use once.
