GoPro Hero4 Release Date Points To October 2014; 5 Things Enthusiasts Are Hoping For - Better Battery Life, Better Image Stabilization, And More!

Despite previous rumors that the GoPro Hero4 release date will took place in March 2015, several reports are pointing to an October 2014 release. After all, the previous cameras were released in the same month.

As the GoPro Hero4 release date comes nearer, here are some things which enthusiasts might hope to see in the upcoming model. Most of the ones in the unofficial wish list are believed to be basic things.

1. Better Battery

This is the most common request of those owning the GoPro cameras. Some think that being able to see the remaining battery life in percentage will be a great help as it will let the user know how much recording time he or she has left.

2. Better Low Light Performance

Using any camera at night is tricky which is why some are hoping that GoPro cameras will come up with a way to make low-light shooting easier. Some are hoping for a night vision option while others consider an infrared lamp for the camera.

3. Better Image Stabilization

As an action camera designed for fast moving shots, it is only understandable why some yearn for better image stabilizer. Nonetheless, if the GoPro Hero4 makes use of Ambarella a9 chip, the stabilization might be improved.

4. Built-in LCD

While the LCD Touch BacPac makes it possible for users to see their shots, some think that paying an additional fee for a screen that's found in other cameras might be unpleasant. Having a built-in screen will allow users to frame their shots efficiently although this feature might take a hit on the battery life.

5. Deep Water Capabilities

This concern only applies to technical divers. Some think that a housing of camera which can go deeper than 60 meters will be tempting.
