GoPro didn’t bring anything major to CES, but it didn’t need to. The company launched its new Hero 4 range of action cameras just a few months back. But they did have an announcement on the same.
the Hero4 models including the Silver and Black editions will soon receive a firmware update that will bring users some welcome new camera capabilities.
Specifically, both cameras are supposed to get a mode that auto-converts time lapses into videos, and a burst-mode that’ll help users take 30 pictures over six seconds. Additionally, both cameras will get an auto-rotate feature, something users will certainly appreciate, as they won’t have to worry anymore about how they wear the camera while recording video. The more premium Black edition will also get other features on top of those, including new shooting modes such as 720p at 240fps and 2.7K at 60fps. Moreover, users will be able to add “highlight” tags during playback.
The software update should be released at some point in the following months, though GoPro has not specified an actual rollout date for it.
