GoPro debuts compact Hero4 Session

GoPro cameras aren’t exactly space hogs but sometimes you still need something smaller to carry around. That’s where the likes of the new Hero4 Session comes in. The compact action cam is 50 percent smaller and 40 percent lighter than the current Hero4 Black and Silver models. You can set it up via the iOS/Android app or the optional Smart Remote. Yes, it has Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity. It can shoot 8MP single, time-lapse, or burst stills. Video resolutions are at 1080p/60fps, 720p/100fps, and 1440p/30fps. It also has the single-button mode you’ve seen in the current GoPro lineup.

What differentiates this (aside from its size) is that it’s completely waterproof without needing an additional case for it. You can submerge it down to 33ft. And it has a two-mic audio recording system, which automatically switches between the mics to minimize wind noise. It’ll be available starting July 12 for US$400.
