The GoPro Hero 11 offers fantastic value for money with superb video quality, incredibly detailed photos and next level video-stabilisation.
This is an easy camera to use thanks to the simple user-interface and easy-setups plus the fact that there is a large display not only at the back for easily framing your shots – but also at the front which is perfect for selfies!
That said, there are plenty of adjustable settings as well as the ability to create custom presets which means that as you get more experienced with using it, you won’t feel that it’s over-simplified.
It’s worth re-stating that you do have to manually adjust white balance and ISO – there’s no dedicated underwater colour correction mode.
This is easy to do, although can’t be done during a dive: you’ll have to create custom presets for different white balance and ISO levels instead (which you can access on a dive).
(If you do want a camera which automatically adjusts white balance for you, consider the Sealife Micro 3.0 or the Paralenz Vaquita).
Initially, it may take a little trial and error until you’re comfortable knowing which presets to apply at different lighting conditions underwater: but once you’ve got some experience of this – it’s incredibly easy!
The wide range of underwater filters can be used in the meantime to make this learning-transition much easier; there’s also several other great GoPro accessories such as the tray, macro lens and underwater lighting.
Compact, durable and with awesome specs, the GoPro Hero 11 is a formidable underwater camera – GoPro cameras are actually the most frequently used camera among scuba divers. With the Hero 11 you’ll have the latest edition!
