It was accidentally let out the bag by trials rider Danny Macaskill this morning...
I feel these are turning into iPhones though with a new one seemly being released every six months (probably more like every year)!

There's also the gopro hero for £99 http://www.bikeradar.com/mtb/news/article/the-99-g...
I've been holding out for this one for a while (currently have a 2) - whilst full price is quite steep, it's less than I was expecting, although I suppose they're not bundling the remote with it this time.
Does anyone know of anywhere likely to discount them from launch? I will be buying as soon as they are available, as I have a holiday planned next month.

I'm more excited about that to be honest.For the same price you can buy four of the cheaper ones and still get great footage but three more angles at the same time! Almost disposable too if you're getting paid.

The Hero 3+ won't be available for much longer, if at all. The UK distributor isn't replenishing their stock so the 3+ Black has pretty much gone, apart from Grey Imports. The 3+ Silver might still be around for a bit.
Our stock of Hero 4 Black, Silver and the £99.99 Hero arrives next week :-D

Does anyone know what the battery life on the new hero is, though? If might forego wifi if I can stop worrying about power...

Yeah, ooooh a built in LCD touch screen...
Maybe try having a battery that would be able to record HQ for more than a couple of hours. I'll be hanging on to my 3+
That's what I was thinking. The battery in the Hero 3 is not up to the job of recording a full day, and I don't think carrying a spare is a acceptable. The WiFi runs it out so fast, I wonder why they even bothered with it.Maybe try having a battery that would be able to record HQ for more than a couple of hours. I'll be hanging on to my 3+

4K at 30fps - sounds good, but I'll wait to see footage before,jumping injon- said:
"a full day"...
Okay, okay. My Hero 3 was fully charged and ran out of juice after 6-7 hours of DH mountain biking a couple of weeks ago. It was only on whilst filming or taking photos, which was about 2.5 hours of the "full day". It's less than 2 years old and I use it 15-20 days per year.jon- said:
