First Look: GoPro Black Edition Camera 4

Okay, you can add this (or a few of these) to our techno-lust list.

Looks like they changed to Micro SD cards, so that'll require a bit of retooling. Fortunately we're not too heavily invested in regular SD cards. But otherwise, we dig the smaller/lighter size, higher resolution with 60p vid, faster processor, better lens, and built-in Wi-Fi. Suggested retail for this one is $399, with an estimated ship date of 10/31/12. They're taking pre-orders now.

Have you checked out the GoPro app, where you can preview video and control the camera from your smartphone or tablet? Way cool.

For those of you who geek out on this kind of thing, here are some of their specs.
