When a Gopro 4 (that's been on the market for a year now) can do 240 fps at 720p resolution, I think it's a bit misleading to say the current state of the art is 60 fps. And it's fair to assume next year's Gopro 5 will have a significant increase on that again.
- EA 11y agoAre we sure that the Hero5 isn't coming out this year?
- semi-extrinsic 11y agoDoesn't look like it is confirmed by GoPro, but the rumor that it's being postponed to 2016 has been widely circulated. If GoPro was releasing the Hero5 a month from today, they'd be idiots not to have a press release out denying that rumour.
- speedkills 11y agoWhat I really want, from go pro or Sony is a global shutter. Rolling shutter needs to die.
- semi-extrinsic 11y agoAFAIK, you can have global shutter on cameras today if you sacrifice low-light performance and high framerates. You need a CCD sensor instead of a CMOS (generally speaking), like you find e.g. on most cameras in the Canon PowerShot line, which do feature global shutters.
- arbitrage 11y agoExcept the article doesn't say that. It says that the "typical high-end camera shoots about 60 photos per second." Typical high-end is not exactly state of the art, and the distinction is quite clear.
