The GoPro Hero10 Black Bones is no exception, and one day I hope I can build an FPV drone with my sons and stick a Black Bones on it! Check out for more and follow all their social media channels because they have the best content, from dogs to hiking in the Alps.īrady Betzel is an Emmy-nominated online editor at Margarita Mix in Hollywood, working on shows like Life Below Zero and Uninterrupted: The Shop. Everyone I deal with at GoPro (the company) is always happy, and that translates to great-working products. I’m not only a fan of their products but of their work culture. The Black Bones retails for $399.99 with the included one-year GoPro subscription (a must-have in my opinion - it even covers a no-questions-asked camera replacement) or for $499.99 without the subscription.
#GOPRO VR PLAYER ALTERNATIVE UPDATE#
The ReelSteady update usually costs $99.99 as an upgrade to the standard GoPro player, but it is included with the purchase of the Hero10 Black Bones! Combining the GoPro’s HyperSmooth in-camera stabilization with the ReelSteady update will blow everyone’s mind. What really got my interest was the inclusion of ReelSteady in the newly updated GoPro Player. With the GoPro Hero10 Black Bones, FPV-capable drone operators will now have much higher color fidelity, resolution and frame rates and even stabilization tools. More and more, I have been seeing FPV footage providing almost a bird’s-eye view, but the quality is still a little lacking. That said, on a lot of television shows I work on, drones are an essential camera in their arsenal these days. I’m going to be honest here: I don’t know the first thing about flying an FPV drone, but I would learn.
#GOPRO VR PLAYER ALTERNATIVE CODE#
To operate the Black Bones, you can use the two buttons on the camera, scan a QR code (with the GoPro camera) that will load preset settings (amazing!), use the GoPro Quik app, or even use your own flight controller using the command line interface of Betaflight. This helps with a more traditional and eye-pleasing look (some say cinematic). The lens cover is replaceable and compatible with third-party Hero9/10 Black ND filters to help lower the camera’s shutter speed without blowing out the highlights and crushing the shadows. This is an FPV-specific camera that cuts out a lot of the weight and dimension of the traditional Hero10 Black and gives power to the FPV drone user.

Following its release of the all-in-one Hero 10 Black Creator Edition and the April 11 update to the GoPro Player - to include the huge and amazing ReelSteady footage stabilization addition - GoPro has released the Hero10 Black Bones. GoPro is going back to back with product releases.
