Whether you’re big wave surfing or photographing wild animals, your camera has to be as tough as you without weighing you down. The best adventurers need the best cameras to capture the essence of their exploits. There is also a bundle with Bones and a one-year GoPro subscription for $399.99.Get the shot with the best GoPro sports action cameras. GoPro sells Bones for $499.99 to non-subscribers, but you can get it for less if you pay for an annual GoPro subscription-$349.99. The camera is available today and is bundled with the Player + ReelSteady app. The ultralight Bones is likely to be used for other types of projects and videos too. The Hero10 Black Bones isn't a drone, but it's a sign that, despite the well-publicized struggles with Karma, GoPro is paying attention to creators using its cameras for FPV drone videos. It also includes reframing tools for owners of the GoPro Max 360-degree camera, and basic trim, frame grab, and batch export tools. This lets pilots film with the widest view available and remove barrel distortion in post. Player + ReelSteady leverages the same gyroscope data as HyperSmooth to steady video, and can also remove lens distortions from video.

#HERO10 BLACK BONES SOFTWARE#
It's including a license for its Player + ReelSteady Go desktop stabilization software with Bones if you own a different GoPro you can add the software for $99 if it's useful for your video work. GoPro's solution for FPV pilots is stabilization after the fact, not in-camera. A stabilized feed can make for mid-air accidents.īut nobody wants to publish a shaky drone video. These aircraft are made to navigate through tight spaces, and a digitally stabilized view means the camera view doesn't match perfectly with a drone's flight path. But FPV drone pilots don't want a stabilized feed when flying. The Hero10 Black has the best digital stabilization we've seen in an action camera, HyperSmooth. The Bones omits an in-camera GPS, but its internals are the same otherwise.
#HERO10 BLACK BONES FULL#
You can read our Hero10 Black review for a full account of its performance. Because of its battery-free design, I've not been able to turn the Bones on to try it out, but inside it promises to have all of the same features as the Hero10 Black-5.3K video capture at up to 60fps, 120fps 4K slow-motion, 20MP stills, and Hyperlapse. GoPro sent us a Hero10 Black Bones to test, but we weren't able to secure an FPV drone to use with it ahead of the announcement. GoPro cautions pilots to take the weight of the Max Lens into account it's front-heavy compared with Bones, to keep your FPV drone balanced.
#HERO10 BLACK BONES MOD#
The lens cover is removable, so drone pilots can add neutral density filters for daytime flights, or opt to add the ultra-wide Max Lens mod for an extreme perspective. Bones includes a memory card slot for microSDXC media. Media is saved on microSDXC cards, there's a small card slot on the side of the camera. You'll need a Torx T9 screwdriver to attach it-this is a camera for folks who own a toolbox. Mounting clips are included for GoPro accessories, and is an adjustable clip. You can use the on-camera controls, or connect to the GoPro smartphone app.
There are two control buttons on the back, Record and Mode. There's not much else going on with the camera itself. The Bones works with the batteries most commonly used in FPV-it supports 26-6S batteries with a voltage range of 5-27VDC. It draws power instead from a DC power connection a three-wire cable is included to connect to an FPV drone-you'll need to be comfortable with a soldering iron for installation. And, to really let you know this one is just for drones, the Bones doesn't have a battery. To make weight, the Bones removes many features we think of as necessary for a camera-the rear screen is gone, a throwback to older GoPros that didn't include a screen at all, and the Bones is not waterproof or ruggedized. You'll need to be comfortable with a soldering iron to connect the Bones' power cord to your FPV drone. Bones weighs just 54g, a full 99g lighter than the Hero10 Black. The name itself, Bones, is in reference to the trimmed design, not an homage to doctors Leonard McCoy or Temperance Brennan. It includes all of the same imaging and video tools as you find in the Hero10 Black, but in a much lighter, pared-down package. The GoPro Bones is made for these types of drones. These ultralight, handspun drones are the ones behind viral long-take videos that go well beyond what the most famous of famous filmmakers have done with oners-it's not out of hand to compare the head-turning bowling alley video tour or a recent flight through the Tesla Gigafactory with the oner that opens Touch of Evil. A healthy market of hobbyists build and fly do-it-yourself models.
