Well, it was great, and then thousands of people descended on this little village for the day and it went down the crapper like a bout of food poisoning. The first one is now up though – and here’s a look at the GoPro Hero4 vs the Garmin VIRB Ultra 30 (which includes a great overview of all the new VIRB Ultra 30 features):īut alas, my WiFi here at Eurobike is the pinnacle of crap. Same goes for many of my Strava activity shots over the last while.īasically, I’ve got videos out the wazoo to publish/upload. In fact, this recent video shot underwater was actually filmed on the Garmin VIRB Ultra 30 – including the impressive audio bits underwater. It’s probably one of my coolest in-depth reviews in a while based on a lot of time with the camera(s). Now, I have an *awesome* in-depth review for you with tons of amazing footage – footage attached to drones in Ibiza, paragliding in the Alps, driving the coastline of the south of France, and riding in Paris to name a few. Meanwhile, I have it set on travelapse mode as noted at the bottom left. The areas highlighted in red indicates overexposure. Basically, anything software-focused the Garmin takes the cake on (today anyway).īelow is an example of the new overlays, while also using the new overexposure display options. In a nutshell, it mirrors the hardware specs of the GoPro Hero4 Black from a resolution standpoint, but it exceeds them handily when you talk about aspects such as GPS, accelerometers, live streaming, and so on. – Ability to save/export settings to share with multiple cameras – Samples and records internal sensor data at up to 100 times a second (100 Hz) for overlay later, and GPS data at 10 Hz – Actually works with some 3rd party gimbals now – Added image stabilization in-camera up to 1440p (reduces shake) – Voice controls for photo, video, highlights (‘OK Garmin, take a picture’) – New Travelapse mode: Like a timelapse mode, but distance triggered vs time-triggered – New VIRB Edit apps support higher resolution footage now (i.e. – Added ability to playback via Miracast to TV’s in your house wirelessly

– Added YouTube Live Streaming (iOS only) – Added a new ‘frame/skeleton’ style case as an option – New hardshell case also allows wind-reduction and sound underwater

– New hardshell case still allows clear audio and touchscreen to work when camera is in it – Separate waterproof case from camera, leaving naked camera virtually identical to GoPro Hero4 Black/Silver size – Added overexposure displays onto touch screen live view (to see if exposure is washed out) – Added framing overlays onto touch screen live view (i.e.
#Garmin virb edit 64 bit full
– Added full color touchscreen to back of unit
#Garmin virb edit 64 bit manual
– Added very granular photo and video manual settings options (i.e. – Added burst up to 60 frames over 2 seconds for photos
#Garmin virb edit 64 bit 1080p
– Slow-mo modes up to 240fps at 720p, and 120fps at 1080p It’s got a ton of new features aside from the noted 4K capabilities, they include:

This 4K action cam is capable of rivaling the GoPro Hero4 series, as well as the rumored specs on the upcoming GoPro Hero5 units. Today, Garmin released their newest action, the VIRB Ultra 30. Update: My In-Depth Review is up! Check it out by clicking here.
