GoPro just came out with yet another expanded camera lineup. They just can’t figure it out. Gangly clunky design, big wide bodies, lens always off to one side so in-water usage wobbles, no good way to mount it safely to a helmet so it doesn’t break your neck when you crash, of but you know what everyone will want, a Session 6 finally after a decade of waiting since the Session 5? NOPE, another dumb 360deg fisheye camera, but this time in 8k for when you really gotta have even bigger distorted nauseating footage. Plus another clunky blogging camera. Yay! It’s like camera companies bitch about the camera market sucking balls but then flood it with unattractive products and go back to wringing hands & moaning. First company to beat the 2015 Session 5 wins. FFS DJI & even Polaroid had a start at it, but then shit the bed.

They don’t care about the “basic” action camera anymore, since dji and insta360 started to eat their lunch all they care about is beating them, not actually being good

Looks better than a sony camera.

Comparing these new monstrosities to what they were capable of a decade ago. Great, the sensors are higher res & the chips are faster, but look at well designed this fucking thing was. One button. …minimalist display. Whole shittin thing fits anywhere you want to stick it. Perfect.

Huh, so that's why their stock has been going up.

camera companies are like video game studios. they make slop no one wants and then they cry that the market is dead. fucking retards. hiring millenials was a mistake. hiring zoomers made it worse.

>Game devs when the players expect a minimum level of quality input and creative ideas
>Camera engineers when customers expect new technology for new products, or lower prices over time of the same technology
>Blizzard when a private server with good original changes hosted in Turkmenistan is more popular than their own
>Jaguar when drivers want classic styling and clean asthetics
>The public pool guy when I pop my laxitives while holding a death stare with him
