The GoPro Hero 10 Black looks almost identical to the Hero9 Black it replaces – or the Hero5 Black that that replaced. The Hero 10 Black keeps its a microSD card slot and removable battery under a flap on its bottom edge, while a side door covers USB-C and micro HDMI ports. The system works quite well, and having it added to 5.3K 60 footage is a boon for action videographers who prefer the smooth look of 60fps capture, and the ability to slow it down to half-speed for a modest slow-motion effect. You can certainly offload your footage to a computer and edit in your application of choice. You can also get the GoPro app for Android or iOS if you prefer a tablet- or phone-based workflow.
You can record H.264/AVC and H.265/HVEC MP4 videos easily. If you’re a savvy video editor, you may want to edit the highlight 4K clips in some professional video editing software, such as Avid Media Composer, iMovie, Final Cut Pro X, Premiere Pro CC, Vegas Pro, DaVinci Resolve, After Effects, etc. Although most popular NLEs supports 4K, we found that when directly import GoPro Hero 10 MP4 video into those NLEs, sometimes error message will still pop up- the rendering process last forever, or the editing work not smooth at all.
The basic reason is that the GoPro Hero 10 footage is being highly compressed, and the makers at times get very creative in their internal codec applications to do so. Creative as in, doing something not generally done nor accepted as "standard" practice for a codec. As Avid Media Composer isn’t really designed to handle non-standard codec options. What’s more, working 5.3K and 4K files requires a powerful CPU and Graphics. Generally speaking, even the NLEs has ability to handle the 4K video, editing in an old or low configuration PC/Mac can be a pain.
