Just like the Hero8 Black, the Max pairs with the Android and iOS GoPro app. The PowerPano feature grabs instant ultra-wide 6MP panoramas, which look great, and traditional 4:3 photographs are shot at 5MP - poor indoors and at night, decent in well-lit environments. While less rugged than a traditional GoPro, the Max is still able to handle action with waterproofing, sensational stabilization and a GPS on-board.

This is great for vlogging, helping footage captured look incredibly gimble-esque.Īdvanced users will also benefit from ProTune, giving you control over the video’s bitrate, shutter speed, white balance, and more, so despite not having a cinematic look out of the camera, capture is nicely customizable.ĭespite its resolution, single-lens footage looks strong, with respectable clarity for Full HD content.
We literally threw the camera in the air, spinning it in the process and the picture didn’t even tilt. When fired up, content is always facing the right way. On the plus, it does offer a lot of versatility, shooting across four digital focal lengths: 13mm, 16mm, 19mm and 27mm.

When using it as a traditional action camera, the GoPro Max can’t quite stack up to a standalone Hero8 Black, with its resolution capping out at 1080p 16:9, or 1440p 4:3.

When the lights drop, that’s when judder creeps in with every footstep - so you’ll definitely want to tread lightly when capturing night-time content. The footage from the forest was the worst fringing we experienced in around a month with the camera though, with most cityscapes and country scenes handled beautifully. In turn, while you can be relaxed with your framing, you’ll want to be mindful of that fact.Īdditionally, when faced with intricate backlit detail around the edges of each camera’s field of view, chromatic aberration can creep in, with purple fringing being very noticeable in the branches in the footage above. When light is abundant, it looks like the camera is floating on a gimbal or drone.Īs with all 360-degree cameras, detail is stronger in the centre of each lens, and weakest towards the stitch-line.

In turn, it isn’t trying to be the best action camera (opens in new tab), but rather, the only camera you’d want to take with you on an adventure.
Like the DJI Osmo Action (opens in new tab), it’s also a solid selfie vlogging cam, with the rear camera and screen capable of working in tandem, and there are six microphones on it as well for a fuller, directional audio capture.
