Gopro Hero 8 Black - Firmware 1.50 vs 2.50 (Fix Stabilization Errors)

2 years ago

In 2 different days, I've done the registration.
- Same hour
- Same Gear (I used gimbal in both cases)
- Same Walk
- Same Camera (Gopro Hero 8 Black)
- Different Firmwares (2.50 first & 1.50 second - downgrade)

After you check the video, you will see that Gopro has downgraded the stabilization technology in order, I suppose, to avoid video comparison with other Gopro cameras where 8 will result better (for example 9,10, and MAX).

This 1.50 Firmware version is no longer available on the Gopro official website, so you have to trust yourself downloading it from the Internet. We call that: "planned obsolescence" and "Gaslighting". Decreasing technology step by step is a marketing common action.

Gopro Hero 8 FIRMWARE 1.50 provides an infinite better stabilization, losing some color grade. In any case, the color grade can be fixed post-processing. Stabilization, not so much...
