It's so easy to use, a beginner can have fun straight away." Karma packs Hollywood-caliber aerial, handheld and gear-mounted image stabilization into a backpack for $799. Woodman adds, "We're stoked to launch Karma and show how much more it is than a drone. This is a game-changing experience that we will continue to build upon."

"HERO5's ability to auto-upload photos and videos to a GoPro Plus account dramatically simplifies mobile, on-the-go editing, sharing and enjoyment. "With these new products, we're delivering on our promise to make it easy to capture and share engaging stories," said Woodman.
The event was broadcast live and can be seen HERE. GoPro's founder and CEO, Nicholas Woodman, introduced a new line of HERO5 cameras, cloud-based software, and drone, Karma, to international press at the base of Squaw Valley, CA, near Lake Tahoe. (NASDAQ: GPRO) today unveiled new products and services that dramatically simplify the process of capturing, editing and sharing engaging content, establishing GoPro as an end-to-end storytelling solution. Along with the expected general improvements ("better" "more powerful" etc), there are also other, more significant features being introduced: a color touch screen (on Hero 5) with in-camera editing capabilities, voice control, electronic image stabilization, and a waterproof design which does not require the use of a housing.Īt a time when the competition in the action camera market is heating up, these improvements look like they should allow GoPro to keep its edge - they are certainly more than just window dressing.
In addition to Karma, GoPro is also releasing two brand new cameras, the Hero 5 and the Hero Session 5. Just the kind of trouble us mountain bikers might be looking to get into. At $1099 MSRP including the new GoPro Hero 5 camera and a remote control that features a built-in screen, the bundle is extremely competitively priced (the main opponent, DJI's Phantom 4, will set you back a similar amount, but that does not include the handheld grip and it requires a smartphone to be connected to the remote).Īnd the best part is, the drone folds down and the whole system (including remote control and grip) will fit in a very slim case (or optional backpack) that looks like it will be easy to take anywhere. By making the gimbal removable and providing a separate grip that can be used hand-held or mounted (gimbal POV chestmount WOOHOO!), GoPro allows you to leverage your investment to make use of your equipment even when it's not airborne. The drone itself looks like it will do a fine job of capturing stunning aerial images, but what's even more interesting is that it is part of a bigger system that allows you to produce images in other, hand-held settings too.
