Get ready Canada for the latest and greatest GoPro cameras – the new GoPro Hero4 Silver and Hero4 Black Edition. GoPro have once again upped the ante by packing in higher resolution, higher frame rates and a whole bunch of new exciting features into a camera the same size as their previous Hero3+ models.
GoPro Hero4 Silver Edition
GoPro have taken a massive leap forward with the new GoPro Hero4 Silver Edition camera which is the first ever GoPro camera to feature a built-in LCD touch screen. The new Hero4 Silver features the same pro-level sensor that was in the Hero3+ Black Edition, which means that you can capture video at up to 4k/15fps, 2.7k/30fps, 1080p/60fps and 720p/120fps as well as 12MP still photos. All this and the camera is the same size as the previous Hero3/3+ models!
The new GoPro Hero4 Silver Edition is a great option for pro-sumer and everyday users equally, matching professional level quality with user friendly features such as the built-in LCD screen. The Hero4 Silver will be released in Canada early October 2014 and will retail for $449.99
