原文: This review is from my perspective as a freelance videographer and first-time action camera owner. I will keep the review short by going over the good, the bad, and the ugly of the GoPro Hero 5 Black.
The good (+3)
- Highly portable. I can quickly charge it and stick it in my pocket
for on-the-go shooting.
- Waterproof. Drop this in water and you'll be fine. Swish it around, and still fine. Go diving, yep, still fine (up to 33' without housing).
- Android connectivity. It works fantastically! With the Capture app, I can pay attention to the shot on my 5" phone screen while guiding my arm.
- Stabilization. Unbelievably good. If I'm doing a panning shot or walking down stairs, I don't have to worry about arm jiggle. It's smooth on a bike.
- Audio. Multi-directional recording on this tiny camera is very good. Listen to the raw audio in the attached video to see what I mean.
- Sturdy construction. The smooth plastic, large touch screen, and heft give it a quality feel fitting to the price range.
- Timelapses look great! I recorded a 2-hour once-per-2-seconds timelapse on a single battery and was able to immediately wirelessly transfer it to my phone and share it.
The bad (-1)
- The flap on the USB C port on the side has jammed and fallen off several times. It is easy to put back on, though the possibility of it falling off again has made me think about accidentally losing it.
- The water-tight housing (allows it to go much deeper in water) bumps up against the record button and takes a bit of a squeeze to get it on. Not the worst thing in the world, but hey, it is a hassle.
The ugly (-2)
- At any light lower than near-direct sunlight, digital grain is visible. When in the shade or when it is cloudy, the quality is noticeably worse than in sunlight. Think of the grain as like a fine paint daub look, circa 2010 phone cameras. Yes, it can shoot 4K at a 60 Mb/s bitrate, but even downscaled to 1080p, the digital grain is noticeable. See what I mean in the attached video. My phone, Galaxy S7, takes far better video than the GoPro in lower-light settings. However, no phone camera beats the wide-angle, waterproofing, and general versatility of this camera.
Verdict
- The GoPro Hero 5 Black is a great $400 action camera intended for a very specific market of videographers. The major downside of this camera (video quality in low light) does not outweigh all that this camera can do. Throw this tiny camera in your bag, go skiing, surfing, traveling the country, and when you're all done, put together something worth sharing. What you don't get with video quality you in return get not having to hassle with lenses, extra batteries, external chargers, equipment bags, and the like, which all get in the way of the action.

译文: 作为一名自由摄影师,我会以我的角度,评价一下黑色的 GoPro Hero 5 Black的好坏,并持续更新内容:
优点(+3)
-高度便携。可以快速充电,并把它放在我的口袋里进行拍摄。
防水。把这个放在水里,可以带着去潜水,是的,仍然很好。
- Android连接。它工作出色!有了捕获应用程序,我可以注意到我的5个手机屏幕上的镜头,同时指导我的手臂。
稳定。令人难以置信的好。如果我做一个全景拍摄或走下楼梯,我不必担心手臂轻摇。自行车上很平稳。
-音频。这个微型相机的多方向录音非常好。听附加视频中的原始音频,看看我的意思。
-坚固的质量。光滑的塑料,大触摸屏,和重量,感觉价格在合理的范围。
- timelapses,看起来很棒!
缺点(- 1)
-侧面的USB-C端口上的襟翼已经卡住并掉了好几次了。它很容易被恢复。
-防水的外壳(允许它在水里更深处)撞到记录按钮上,需要一点挤压才能打开。不是世界上最糟糕的事情,但是,嘿,这是一个麻烦。
缺陷(2)
-在任何低于近阳光直射的光线下,可见数字纹理。在阴凉处或阴天时,质量明显低于在阳光下效果。它可以拍摄4K视频,60 fps的码率,但即使按比例缩小到1080P,数字粮食是显而易见的。看看我在附加视频中。我的手机,Galaxy S7,然而,没有手机相机能比得上广角、防水和这种相机的通用性。
结果
GoPro Hero 5黑色是一个400美元的设备,用于摄像机摄像师非常具体的市场。这台相机的主要缺点(低光度的视频质量)并不超过这个相机所能做的一切。把这个小相机放在你的包里,去滑雪,冲浪,周游全国,当你都完成了,把一些值得分享的东西放在一起。你回来不必携带镜头,额外的电池,外部充电器,设备袋,等等,这一切都妨碍了行动的麻烦。
