GoPro makes great action cameras. Small, tough, with image stabilization and other cool features. For some time now, they can be used also for more “professional”, cinematic purposes. I’m recording quite a lot of my videos with the help of GoPro Hero camera. Previously with Hero 7 and Hero 8. Now with the Hero 10.

The problem with the latest Hero cameras is that they do not have the HDMI out or microphone port. To have them, you have to buy the Media Mod.

GoPro Media Mod has its own microphone that is supposed to be better than the one built-in into the camera itself. But is it?

• 3.5mm mic port: Lets you connect an external microphone for even better audio quality.
• HDMI-out port: Allows you to monitor or play back your footage on external displays.
• Two cold-shoe mounts: Attach accessories like lights, LCD screens, or additional mics.
• Weather-resistant design: Built tough to handle outdoor conditions, though it’s not waterproof.
