GoPro launch new MISSION 1 Line cameras

GoPro, Inc announced its new MISSION 1 Series of cameras – the world’s smallest, lightest, and most rugged 8K and 4K Open Gate cinema cameras. Featuring a new 50MP 1″ sensor and GoPro’s new, ultra-efficient GP3 processor, the MISSION 1 Series cameras deliver category-leading resolutions, frame rates, runtimes and thermal performance for mission-critical reliability in even the most demanding environments.

The new series is comprised of three camera models – MISSION 1 PRO, MISSION 1 and MISSION 1 PRO ILS which features an interchangeable Micro Four Thirds lens system compatible with an even broader array of lenses via adapters.

MISSION 1 PRO ILS features the same 50MP 1″ Sensor and GP3 processor as MISSION 1 PRO, but in a mirrorless form with an interchangeable lens mount that supports compatibility with the vast universe of Micro Four Thirds (MFT) lenses and adapters that allows a virtually limitless range of lenses to be paired with the camera.

MISSION 1 PRO ILS also supports in-camera HyperSmooth video stabilisation with any rectilinear, prime focal length lens. This versatility, combined with its video stabilization, weatherproof design and trademark GoPro durability, makes MISSION 1 PRO ILS the world’s smallest, most rugged and versatile high-speed cinema camera at a fraction of the cost (and size) of comparable cameras. With more creative options than ever before, including telephoto, zoom, macro, and more – the possibilities are limitless, whatever your mission.

“With the launch of the MISSION 1 Series, GoPro is entering the premium end of the digital imaging market in a significant way,” says Pablo Lema, GoPro’s senior vice president of product. “The combination of our new 50 megapixel 1″ sensor and ultra-efficient GP3 processor sets a new performance bar for compact cinema cameras, enabling resolutions, frame rates, low-light performance, runtimes and thermal capabilities never seen before in cameras this small. We expect the MISSION 1 Series to expand the creative potential of filmmakers and creators around the world, similar to the impact GoPro made when it pioneered the category for durable, ultra-capable compact cameras.”
