The GoPro brand got its start when ambitious surfer Nick Woodman wanted to capture high-quality photos of his surfer friends in action. Woodman strapped a 35mm film camera to his wrist, and the concept of the GoPro took off from there. The first GoPro Hero camera was released in 2004, and the GoPro name has now come to represent action, adventure, and quality. Today, GoPro cameras are wildly popular, with everyone from professional athletes looking to capture their feats to ordinary people looking to capture their occasional high-adrenaline adventures.
The GoPro company has come a long way in the approximately two decades since its founding. There have been many technological advancements, and the company continues to release new camera models. Those looking for an affordable option can check out the GoPro HERO8 Action Camera CHDHX-801 in black. Released in 2019, this model was the first to contain in-camera stabilization. If you want an action camera along with some extras, consider the GoPro HERO10 & Accessories Bundle CHDSB-102-CN in black. Along with the camera, you get a small tripod, a battery, a clip, and a micro SD card.
Those in the market for a GoPro are most likely adventurous and ambitious souls. Along with your action camera, you may need some high-quality gear and accessories to accompany you on your journey. Consider adding a smartwatch to your arsenal of adventure gear. You can find models that are durable and allow you to track your workouts and activities.
