The New GoPro Fusion - Taking 360° Footage to the Next Level
Written by Daryl-Leigh Preuss
We're still in awe with the release of the GoPro Hero 5 Family & the Karma drone but the new GoPro Fusion is sure to start turning heads (ba dum tss)!
In their announcement "The Newest Member of the GoPro Camera Family" (made on 20 April) they introduced us to the Fusion. Fusion is meant to embody all the best in GoPro, from the quality, mountability and durability into one compact product.
In my opinion, the GoPro Fusion is the coolest camera GoPro have released to date! This awesome gadget can film / take shots from all angles giving you 360° footage. With the Fusion's 5.2K video, you can relive your bucket-list moments over and over again!
“Fusion is just that, the ability to capture every angle simultaneously…as though you had six GoPro cameras fused into one. Whether filming for VR or traditional fixed-perspective content, Fusion represents the state-of-the-art in versatile spherical capture.” - GoPro founder and CEO, Nicholas Woodman.
- Type of camera: OverCapture camera (Records all angles)
- Camera: 5.2K
- Release date: 20 April 2017.
- Expected date of arrival: End 2017
- Compatibility: It's compatible with a large range of GoPro mounts and handheld accessories.
We will keep updating this blog as soon as information is released regrading the price and date of arrival.
Why do we like it so much?
Imagine being able to capture the moment as you live and enjoy it from all angles and having the ability (and flexibility) to choose your composition at a later stage (this is called OverCapture / Reframing).
