Some potential codec frustration, Battery life quite short when shooting 4K, Doesn't support Bluetooth mics
It's safe to say the Hero6 Black is the best action cam GoPro has made. That doesn't necessarily mean it's the right one for you though. The new shooting modes are excellent, particularly if you're shooting for the big screen or have a penchant for drama...

HEVC video is very demanding
If it had launched at $400, we would immediately say yes. At $500, however, it's a tougher call. Again, if you're an early adopter and don't mind shelling out a little more money, you will be very happy with the Hero6 Black.However, part of us has to wond...
