原文： I had to come back and update this review. My sincere apologies to anyone that bought a Gopro based on any one of my reviews! This issues concerns what will happen to your camera if you leave the battery in.
Your gopro could actually die. I don't mean the battery can just go dead, but
that as the battery runs down, it can actually damage the camera to the point where it may not turn on, or is unusable in another way.
Electronics shouldn't have shelf lives. That is whether you leave the battery in or not. I expect to replace batteries from neglect, not cameras! They can't fit a smart battery in, but they could make camera circuitry to completely disconnect the battery if the voltage dips to a certain level like any smart device has.
Lithium batteries do not leak and run all over the inside like alkaline, so there is no issue with that.
I find this unacceptable, and I would seriously think twice about purchasing one of these!

I had to come back an edit this, and take a star away

Don't trust a lot of the bad reviews. They are made by people that don't really know anything of consequence on video... This camera is VASTLY superior to it's predecessor. People that really don't know anything are going to fall back on a comparison of frame rates.
This camera does offer only modest improvements in frame rates, but it offers a great leap in dynamic range, which is important to people that know about photography, and want to make good videos.
I will give those that don't know a slight lesson. So dynamic range is the difference in many instances of either poor, or mixed lighting. What happens with poor dynamic range is when you go to look at your video, it might be thought of as "too bright". What is will be is washed out, with the highlights blown out. What a good dynamic range allows is that the bright parts of the frame (say in the sun) will be exposed properly and you will see them, but you will also be able to see the shadows, which means the entire frame (light and dark) will be exposed properly. Your videos will look better.
Now in the dark, with good dynamic range, it means your dark areas will be expose properly, and less grainy (noisy), while the lights will also be exposed properly. With poor dynamic range, what will happen is either you won't be able to see anything but the brightest spots, with the rest in black, or the camera will pump up the iso so you will see the darks, which will look terrible and grainy, but the bright spots like car lights will be overblown.
Now as for the cost. The cost is NOT too high, and the value is there. People have grown accustomed to paying to little from Chinese manufacturers for these cameras. I have tested some, and to be frank, even BEFORE this release, the Chinese knockoffs were not up to the quality of the Gopros. This gopro has a new proprietary chip, which is and will be vastly superior to the knock offs in image quality! You will start to see Gopro really pull away from the knockoffs because the Chinese companies will not be able to match them in the future. Now having said all that, how much do people think it costs to design all that innovation and image quality into such a small package?
Will there be competition to this in image quality? Yes, I believe there will be, and possibly much better! The Sony Rx0 has a one inch image sensor, which should be vastly superior in image quality, and also frame rate. Of course, it will be more expensive and we will have to wait to get them in our hands and test them in the real world....
I was no fan boy of GoPros. I thought they were all hype and the facade of having a gopro, but I was wrong years ago. They have been in fact better, and worth the money.
I did not buy a Hero 5, because I didn't see that as an upgrade, and could care less about gitchy voice control. The only thing I really care about is image quality, and if I see an improvement then I want to upgrade.
Two downfalls for the camera:
A. Sound quality is actually worse than for the Hero 5.
B. The weird codec is going to give some people some problems.
Pluses for this over the all the competition:
A. MUCH better dynamic range than anything out there in a comparable class.
B. Image stabilization is perfect, although it is digital. This doesn't particularly apply to me, as I always use a 3 axis stabilizer, but for MOST people, this is going to be a BIG plus! It is going to be the difference between making people sick or not!
In general the video looks fantastic!

译文： 我不得不回来更新这篇评论。我诚挚地向任何根据我的任何评论购买了Gopro的人致歉！这个问题涉及如果您将电池放入电池时相机会发生什么情况。
你的gopro实际上可能会坏掉。我并不是说电池可能会死机，但是当电池电量耗尽时，它可能会损坏相机，使其无法开启或以其他方式无法使用。
电子产品不应该有保质期。这就是你是否离开电池的问题了。我希望取代电池而不是照相机！他们无法安装智能电池，但如果电压降至某个水平，像智能设备一样，他们可能会让摄像机电路完全断开电池。
锂电池不会泄漏，像碱性电池一样在内部流动，所以没有问题。
我觉得这是不可接受的，我会认真考虑购买其中的一种！

我不得不回来编辑这个，并少给一颗星

不要相信很多糟糕的评论。它们是由真正不了解视频的任何后果的人制作的......这款相机比它的前作更加优秀。真正不知道任何事情的人会回头看看帧率的比较。
这款相机确实只提供了帧速率方面的小幅改进，但它提供了动态范围的巨大飞跃，这对于了解摄影并想制作好视频的人们非常重要。
我会给那些不了解一点教训的人。因此，动态范围是差或混合照明的许多情况下的差异。动态范围较差时会发生什么情况，当您查看视频时，可能会将其视为“太亮”。什么是会被冲淡，突出的亮点。一个好的动态范围允许的是，框架的明亮部分（比如在阳光下）将会正确地曝光，并且您将看到它们，但是您也将能够看到阴影，这意味着整个框架（明暗） ）将被正确暴露。您的视频看起来会更好。
现在在黑暗中，具有良好的动态范围，这意味着您的黑暗区域将正确曝光，并且颗粒感较差（嘈杂），同时灯光也会正常曝光。如果动态范围较差，会发生什么情况是要么只能看到最亮的部分，要么其余部分显示为黑色，或者相机会抽出iso，以便看到黑暗，看起来很糟糕，粒状，但汽车灯亮点会被夸大。
现在至于成本。成本不是太高，价值就在那里。人们已经习惯于从中国制造商那里为这些相机付出很少的代价。我已经测试了一些，并且坦率地说，即使在此版本发布之前，中国的仿制品并没有达到Gopros的质量。这款gopro拥有全新的专有芯片，它将大大优于图像质量的剔除！你会开始看到Gopro真的从假冒产品中脱颖而出，因为中国公司将来无法与之匹敌。现在说了这么多，人们认为将所有创新和图像质量设计成这样一个小包装的成本是多少？
在图像质量方面会不会有这种竞争？是的，我相信会有，可能会更好！索尼Rx0拥有1英寸的图像传感器，在图像质量和帧速率方面都应该优越。当然，它会更昂贵，我们将不得不等待让他们在我们的手中，并在现实世界中进行测试....
我不是GoPros的粉丝男孩。我认为他们都是炒作和有gopro的门面，但几年前我错了。事实上，它们更好，而且值钱。
我没有买一个英雄5，因为我没有看到这是一个升级，并且可能不太在乎那种古怪的语音控制。我唯一真正关心的是图像质量，如果我看到了改进，那么我想升级。
相机的两个缺点：
答：音质实际上比英雄5的差。
B.奇怪的编解码器会给一些人一些问题。
在所有作品中加入这一点：
答：更好的动态范围比任何可比较的类别。
B.图像稳定是完美的，虽然它是数字的。这并不是特别适用于我，因为我总是使用三轴稳定器，但对于大多数人来说，这将是一个大加！这将是让人们生病或不生病的区别！
一般来说的话，大部分视频看起来太棒了！
