    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. The temperature icon and camera too hot appear on the camera status screen when the camera becomes too hot and needs to cool down. Simply let it sit and cool before attempting to use it again. 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.

    Great camera! Poor setup instructions and useless computer software
    4 Stars
    Great camera! Poor setup instructions and useless computer software
    I was all excited to purchase my first GoPro. That quickly evaporated once I realized how poorly the initial setup was documented by GoPro.Besides the camera, the box also contained the following (as diagramed on the side of the box):• frame, thumbscrew, and mounting buckle• 2 sticker mounts (flat and curved)• 1 short USB-c charger• an Important Product + Safety Instructions booklet• a 'You Break it, We Replace It' GoPro Care advertisement• 2 GoPro stickersI also purchased a generic connection/mount kit and dog harness along with a 64GB SanDisk microSD card (listed as compatible on the GoPro website). Added about $60 to the cost of the camera.The "You Break It, We Replace It" card opens up to a Quick Start guide that outlines the following:1) download the GoPro app to your cellphone2) remove the camera from the case3) insert the SD card4) charge the battery5) press the button on the top of the camera to take a video.Started to charge the battery using in the USB cable to my computer. It would be nice to include on the Quick Start Guide approx. how long it takes to fully change the battery * , along with what type of wall charger GoPro recommends ** . Adding instructions for getting the User's Guide should also be included on the Quick Start Guide.The "Important Product + Safety Instruction" booklet consists of 42 pages of the smallest, ink saving font available so that the text is hard to read. There are 5 pages of warnings in English. The first warning outlines where to download the User's Guide. Things got so much easier once I downloaded the User's Guide. Read the 'Getting Started' section and it outlined everything I needed to know for base functionality (outlining parts of the camera, what the screen information means, etc).Using the camera, I'm averaging about 1 1/2 hours of battery life when taking short videos (under 5 minutes at 1080) and photos (at about 7 MB/picture). Could have purchased a 32GB card, since the battery doesn't last long enough to store that much media. Great looking photos and videos. I've been using the cellphone app as a viewfinder when setting up the camera for fixed position videos and photos. Used the camera to document my beehive inspection and the voice commands worked great (cropped out some of the attached photo, should have positioned the camera closer).GoPro Quik software on the computer makes it easy to transfer files to your computer but the video editing is very limited and I will probably use different software.GoPro really should include pages 6-10 of the User's Guide in the box, since it is basic functionality needed to use the camera. A laminated card for voice commands would be helpful as well. Because of the way GoPro formatted the User's Guide, it's hard to print a double-sided booklet to take along with the camera.Also, it's much easier to set up your account and device on a computer through GoPro's website than using the app. You must have an account and link your camera to your account to use the cellphone app. When setting up your account, remember GoPro only allows you to change your username once.*: From the User's Guide, the battery should be fully charged in about 2 hours (wall charger) up to 4 hours (computer USB port).**: From GoPro help articles, for charging the battery using a wall charger they recommend outputs of 5V 2A (ideal), or 5V 1A (minimum).
