Product Description
The stunning 4K video and one-button design of Hero5 Session may be the ultimate combination of performance and simplicity. Loaded with pro-quality capture features, it’s also a connected GoPro that makes it easy to access, edit and share on any device. To Charge your Camera: use usb cable and a computer or charge device manufactured by gopro. If your camera freezes, press and hold the menu button for about eight seconds until your camera powers off. This reset saves all of your content and settings.

Your camera was designed to identify conditions of overheating and shuts down when needed. Please note that this camera will not operate as described in cold weather and doesn’t include an SD card. Battery Life: GoPro estimates a battery life of two hours for the Hero 5 running at 1080p at 50fps, with GPS, Wi-Fi, voice control and image stabilization off. Depends on the usage. Capture your life as you’ve never seen it with Hero5 Session.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I have been using a class 10 SD card (sandisk ultra plus), but it is not extreme family, and not an recommended list for Gopro.
After having problems on 4 different GoPro and 3 different SD cards, I started to realize that there must be some other reasons and started to research on line, and most popular answer is SD card compatibility issue.
After switching to a sandisk extreme, the response did get faster, and so far no SD issue any more.
==========original review==============
I chose session5 over hero5 because my kid is trying to play with anything with a LED screen, so session5 is ideal for my case.
The video quality is nice, perfect for beach vocation. The voice control is good for video, but the response is too slow for pic, so you need to hold your smile for a while after voice command. I don't really care, since I don't usually use it in order to extend the battery life.
However, the quality of this product is terrible. I am requesting my 4th right now, and it is the last chance I will give to this product.
1st one: card reader issue. I tried several cards, and randomly I would get SD card error and asked me to format the card. The issue can be fixed by taking card out and re-insert, or formating the card, but this is usually not an option when you are in the pool. Requested for replacement.
2nd one: works fine for 3 weeks and I used it a lot on a trip to Hawaii. One day, after the charge, it is just dead w/o any reason. Can't turn on. Requested for replacement.
3rd one: I tested it Day 1 I got it, no issue. Today card reader goes bad again. Requsted for 4th one, and last one.
I tried all those cards on my canon 5d3, and none of them gave error there, so I think it is GoPro's issue.
My friend has a HERO5, and so far it is good. Not sure if this is only a session5 issue. Very frustrated.
The design is simple and impressive, build quality seems great, and paired with decent accessories, such as a tripod, stick, or chest mount, you can of course have some great videos. Get a good case to protect it as well. it can be easy to misplace it if your clumsy. As for water, be careful. Make sure the casing is closed properly.
Batteries cannot be switched out on this model. Plan accordingly, or miss out on great footage.
The only issue I have with this product may be more Apple related, but I will mention it in case someone needs help. My problem was i couldn't get GoPro videos to play in the ipad. I used a microsd adapter and the Apple sd card reader cable to move fresh videos over to the ipad. They would transfer, but not play. bummer. The workaround i found, is to upload Go Pro vidoes to a pc, then to a cloud storage, and then download to your ipad. Not ideal for travel, but the current solution for myself.
GoPro Hero5 Session is a high definition video recording device that is waterproof. There are currently three different versions of camera along the Hero series while the Hero5 Session is considered a mid-range camera with a reasonable price compare to its counterpart. This camera is highly portable due to its small size and weight. This camera is now more powerful compared to its previous version because it has many features such as voice control, video stabilization, advanced wind noise reduction, waterproof, and it can shoot up to 4k resolution at 30 fps. It can also connect to smartphone through an official GoPro app wirelessly.
Ideal User
This camera is suitable for people who love to go outdoors and want to capture every moment in crystal clear 4k resolution at 30 fps. Extreme sport enthusiast who like surfing, diving, skydiving, motorsports and paragliding will love this product. Besides, this product is also extremely suitable for travelers like drivers and hitchhikers due to its flexibility and hand-free feature. Furthermore, it is not only suitable for taking pictures and videos for extreme sports, but it also good for capturing family activities such as picnic or birthday parties.
Ease of Use
I brought this camera one week before my summer trip, there is a learning curve, but it only took me an hour to learn how to use it. The one-button simplicity feature shortens the learning curve; hence, it is best for beginner user like myself. Also, it comes with an official GoPro app that enable users to connect to the camera via Bluetooth, which in my opinion, is very convenient since users can manage the camera storage with ease.
Advantages
The camera itself is waterproof up to 20 feet, so there is no necessity for external case. Video stabilizing is another GoPro feature that outperform other cameras. It allows users to steadily record and take picture in some extreme situation such as skydiving and other extreme sports.
Given the extreme conditions where the pictures or video were taken, GoPro 4K resolution will ensure that the quality of the pictures and videos were met. It works perfectly well in not just shaky conditions but also places with limited light intensity because of its diverse settings and filters.
Overall
This Camera is one of the best Camera I have owned so far. Its awesome features, size and user-friendly design did not fail my expectations. It allows photographers to snap pictures and record videos with perfect resolution. GoPro definitely provides an experience that no other camera does.
Top reviews from other countries
Les différents supports fournis permettent d’envisager plusieurs scènes et utilisations variés. Je l’ai utilisé pour mes voyages et mes activités sportives et elle ne m’a pas fait défaut. La batterie tiens raisonnablement pour la taille.
À noter que je ne l’ai jamais utilisé pour du filmage en continue, uniquement quelques shoots.
L’application est également très pratique car elle permet de se connecter à la GoPro pour avoir le point de vue de la caméra et mieux se rendre compte du rendu futur des vidéos
Le foto non escono male anche se da il meglio di se con i video, oltre che avere vasta scelta di qualità e FPS.
La sua unica pecca, forse, è la batteria, non essendo nemmeno estraibile senza metterci mano con strumenti, ma è in grado di arrivare a registrare anche 40 minuti.
Arrivata nei tempi prestabiliti, per quanto non dipenda dai venditore o Amazon.
Il prodotto è arrivato in condizioni perfette.
The battery life isn’t the best and this factor is further brought down by the lack of removable batteries. However, the camera is perfect for a throw in your bag and go situation. The small size is perfect for travelling and means that accessories and mounts also take up less space.
The picture quality is good below 4K, but once in 4K contrast and stability begins to drop along with battery life.
Overall, considering it’s cheaper price in comparison to other GoPro’s and other action cameras this is a great device and is perfect for family holidays and beach trips.
Lo único malo, como cualquier cámara de acción, es que no funciona muy bien de noche, aún con el modo nocturno. También, los accesorios oficiales de GoPro suelen ser sobrevaluados.
La recomiendo ampliamente para viajes, videos extremos o simplemente si son aficonados a la fotografía y video.
