The GoPro Mission 1 Pro is part of a whole new line of compact cinematic cameras that are designed to go beyond what the HERO cameras could do. The main change is the larger 1in sensor, this gives amazing low-light performance, 8K30 and 4K120 Open Gate video capture and top level resolutions and frame rates. This is along with things you would expect from GoPro of good battery life and thermal performance and also still waterproof to 20m! The Mission 1 Pro are the worlds smallest, lightest and most rugged fully professional-grade cinematic camera, made for filmmakers, creators and enthusiasts.
Why would I want the Mission 1 Pro rather than HERO 13 Black Camera?
If you are serious about creation and cinematic filming then the Mission 1 Pro offers some amazing features for pro users like the open gate filming and high resolution and dynamic range. It can still be used for action shots but is a serious camera for people that know how to use the features. If you are after almost all POV and action shots and want full on action cam then the HERO range would still be better.
1” Sensor Captures More Light for Sharper Images
The 1” sensor is bigger than leading competition and captures more light and detail, delivering pro-quality results in a compact camera. Take advantage of the sensor’s 50MP when shooting in 8K, or leverage the Quad Bayer 12MP mode in 4K for even better low-light performance.
GP3 Processor: Higher Resolutions, Faster Frame Rates + More
A new System-on-a-Chip delivers 2X the pixel processing power to enable best-in-class resolutions and frame rates, incredible low-light performance and category-leading battery runtimes and thermal performance. This processor is the foundation for groundbreaking features across every new GoPro camera.
Superior Low-Light Performance
The larger sensor + new processor combine to capture natural, cinematic video with authentic detail and minimal noise in low light and at night. It’s closer to what your eye sees, without the overly processed look.
8K30 + 4K120 Open Gate
Open Gate captures a taller 4:3 frame in 8K30, resulting in 33% greater resolution than competitors, and 4K120. This gives creators much more flexibility in editing, reframing and delivering content in multiple formats.
