With so many new experiences on offer and so many new adventures to embark on, the biggest question during your trip to Australia might be: how can you record those memories so that they will last a lifetime?
The Guardian has teamed up with Malaysia Airlines and Tourism Australia to offer you the ultimate answer, the GoPro Hero4 black, the most advanced GoPro video camera ever made.
Imagine watching the crocs jump from the waters of the Adelaide river in the NT, knowing that you are capturing every second in ultra high definition. Because the Hero4 black has a processor that is twice as fast as its predecessor, it gives you sharper, richer and more detailed footage – so you’ll see every one of those teeth.
In fact, the Hero4 offers 4K30 ultra high resolution which, at four times the resolution of standard 1080p, is more akin to what you would expect from a cinema screen than from a small compact camera.
Planning to include some water-based adventures in your trip? Even when you don that wetsuit you can keep the Hero4 with you: it’s waterproof to 40 metres. And it can keep up with you too, whether you’re swimming with the whale sharks or surfing those Aussie waves. Its burst mode takes 30 frames per second so you won’t miss a split-second of the action. And its time lapse mode shoots photographs automatically at set intervals – even if you can’t reach that shutter button.
Want to enjoy dinner under the stars? You won’t just have your memories of this romantic experience when you return home, but also photographs and footage thanks to the Hero4’s auto low light mode, which kicks in whenever you move to a darker environment. And if you want more control over your photos, you’ll find the Hero4’s settings are customisable, thanks to the Protune settings, so you can change the colour, ISO and exposure.
Wherever your Australian adventure takes you, you’ll want to share it with family and friends back home. And with the Hero4 you can, with ease. Thanks to its built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, you can connect seamlessly to the GoPro app to not only play back your footage and view your photos on your smartphone or tablet but also to upload them to Facebook or text or email them to those back home. Go on, make them jealous!
