This time, we will examine the performance of the image stabilization function installed in the GoPro HERO12 Black. GoPro HERO12 Black is equipped with an electronic image stabilization function called 'HyperSmooth6.0', and the effectiveness can be adjusted from three levels: 'Off', 'On', and 'AutoBoost'. In addition, AutoBoost is a mode that adjusts the cropping area according to the intensity of movement and always shoots at the maximum angle of view.
In order to verify the image stabilization effect when HyperSmooth is switched to ``off'', ``on'', and ``AutoBoost'', I shot a bicycle riding movie with GoPro HERO12 Black fixed to my chest. When you play the movie, you can see that 'On' and 'AutoBoost' can significantly suppress blurring. Also, even in the 'off' state, some kind of image stabilization processing seems to be applied, reducing unpleasant small blurs. The image quality setting was 4K/60fps, the aspect ratio was 16:9, and the angle of view was set to 'linear'.
Below is an image of a part of the movie shot with HyperSmooth set to 'on'. If you pay attention to the grass on both sides, you will see that it has been recorded clearly enough to be used as a still image.
Next, I tried shooting a movie of dashing up and down the stairs with similar settings. The GoPro HERO12 Black was shaking violently up and down while shooting, but if you set HyperSmooth to 'On' or 'AutoBoost', the shaking can be suppressed considerably.
A cutout image of a movie shot with HyperSmooth set to 'on' looks like this. I was able to clearly record the pattern on the surface of the stairs.
Some of the smartphones that have appeared in recent years are equipped with powerful image stabilization functions, and an environment is being created in which it is possible to shoot smooth movies with little blur without the need for an action camera. However, there is a big problem with smartphones that it is difficult to hold with one hand during intense action. On that point, the GoPro HERO12 Black is not only easy to hold with one hand, but also has accessories that can be fixed in various places such as the chest, head, helmet, and car front window, so you can enjoy smooth movies in many situations. Can be photographed. Furthermore, the GoPro HERO12 Black is available for around 60,000 yen at the time of article creation, so you can get a high-quality movie shooting environment cheaper than buying a new high-performance smartphone.
GoPro HERO12 Black is available at official stores and electronics retailers. At the time of article creation, it is available at Amazon.co.jp for 63,800 yen including tax.
