SAN MATEO, Calif., May 6, 2020 /PRNewswire/
-- GoPro released an update for its award-winning MAX
360-camera today that unlocks awesome new options for
spherical video and photo capture. New features include the
addition of 3k at 60 frames per
second, Time Lapse Video and Time Lapse Photo, all in 360 mode.
The availability of 3K video at
60fps gives users more flexibility when filming things that are
action-oriented or anything that simply would look cool in slow-mo,
from speeding down a mountain to simply tossing a frisbee.
This 2x slow-mo mode also allows for more time to pan and zoom
around in the frame while the action is happening so you can get
the perfect shot.
Also new is the addition of 360 Time Lapse Video and Time Lapse
Photo – features already available in single-lens HERO mode and now
brought to spherical capture. Time Lapse Video mode in 360 means
users have more interval options for capturing longer periods of
time – ideal for a sunrise, sunset or scenic drive.
Time Lapse Photo is an exciting addition because it enables
hands-free 360 photo capture during activity. Prior to this update,
a MAX user would have to press the shutter button to capture a 360
photo, but in Time Lapse Photo mode, creators can select a single
photo from all the shots taken or use the footage to create an
actual time lapse.
"3k60 video enables more diversity in what you can capture and
play back, particularly in high action scenarios," noted
Abe Kislevitz, Creative Director of
Media and also one of GoPro's earliest employees. "Adding time
lapse video and time lapse photo provides additional options for
shooting longer activities or moments with a greater amount of
creative control."
An additional feature of the new update extends horizon leveling
capability in single-lens HERO mode to TimeWarp and Photo modes,
allowing for more freedom in mounting and shooting without the
worry of horizon lines.
An integral part of the MAX experience is the GoPro App – a
one-stop mobile editing tool for 360 content that transforms
footage into polished images and edits. The new firmware update
allows for faster offload of MAX content to the GoPro App, which
means you get from capture to share more quickly.

camera, including its ability to livestream, MAX HyperSmooth
in-camera stabilization, MAX TimeWarp and MAX SuperView, visit the
