September 28, 2017 By Eric Reagan

The GoPro HERO6 is here. The upgrades over the HERO5 look very worthwhile with 4K now at 60fps and 1080p capture at up to 240fps. The image stabilization has also been improved, and it has a new touch zoom feature for live digital zooming as you shoot.

The HERO6 inherits its predecessor’s form-factor in large part. Additionally, it remains waterproof with not external case down to 33′. The WiFi connectivity gets a boost with 3x faster speeds thanks to an upgrade to 5GHz speeds. GoPro also claims improved image quality, dynamic range, low-light performance and dramatically improved video stabilization over previous HERO camera generations.

The GoPro HERO6 also gets a price bump up to $499 (compared to the $399 price on the HERO5). The GoPro HERO6 is available today. Check it out here at B&H Photo.
