GoPro has unveiled the GoPro MAX 360, offering a versatile 360-degree camera with HERO-style video capabilities. The MAX is designed for a wide range of content creation needs, from immersive 360-degree footage to standard HERO-style video. This article will discuss everything about the latest GoPro MAX 360, including its expected price in Nepal.
GoPro MAX 360 Overview
Dual Capture and Advanced Features
The GoPro MAX enables Dual Capture, allowing users to shoot both 360-degree video and HERO-style video with just one camera. The Max HyperSmooth stabilization ensures smooth footage even in challenging environments. Additionally, Horizon Leveling maintains a straight horizon, regardless of the camera’s orientation.
The GoPro MAX 360 captures 360-degree video through dual wide-angle lenses positioned on opposite sides of the device. It functions as both a spherical camera for virtual reality content and a traditional action camera with selectable field-of-view options. The touchscreen display allows for preview, playback, and control operations. The compact form provides durability for active use. It features stabilization technology, waterproof construction to 16 feet, and microphones for spatial audio recording to complement its visual output. Moreover, the GoPro MAX is waterproof up to 16ft (5m) without a case, making it suitable for various water activities, including swimming.
Audio and Video Quality
The camera features premium audio with six built-in microphones, offering superior sound quality, wind-noise reduction, and support for stereo/360 audio. Video-wise, the 5.6K resolution 360-degree footage and 1440p HERO-style video provide clear, high-quality results. Users can also record slow-motion footage at up to twice the frame rate for enhanced effects.
