Chances are good that you've not been getting much use out of your Hero8 Black for the last few months. Now macOS users can put their actioncams to work as a webcam thanks to some beta software launched by GoPro.

Remember when camcorders were simply … camcorders? They've now splintered into several sub-types, although GoPro has set about combining three of those into one unit, with its new Max.

The Snap Mount is designed to make donning an actioncam easier than ever – utilizing magnets.

GoPro has pulled back the curtain on the Hero8 Black, with improved stabilization, and the ability to connect hardware add-ons to the actioncam.

British startup Overlab is out to make the GoPro Hero seem like a point-and-shoot, with its Asokee case.

​Actioncammers, take note – GoPro has just announced its latest flagship model, the Hero7 Black. According to the company, the camera's new HyperSmooth feature offers the sort of video stabilization that ordinarily requires a separate motorized gimbal.

GoPro has found space in its lineup for an affordable entry-level action cam. The Hero is a pretty impressive unit for the price, with 1440p/60 fps video, 10-megapixel photos, video stabilization, voice control and a two-inch touch screen on the back. It's also waterproof to 30 ft (10 m).

It's been a bumpy ride for GoPro's Karma drone. First released in September 2016​, the folding drone was recalled soon after. A re-release followed in early 2017, but now it's being grounded for good.

​Back in April, GoPro first teased its upcoming Fusion spherical camera. It shot 360-degree panoramic footage that the viewer could subsequently pan and tilt within. Well, the company has now announced pricing and availability, along with some other details.

So, you wanna shoot 4K/60fps footage on a GoPro? Well, now you can, with the company's new Hero6 Black actioncam. Users can also opt for 2.7K/120fps footage, or go full slow-mo with 1080p/240fps.

​​If you have trouble deciding on the best angle from which to shoot your videos, then you might like what GoPro has in the pipeline. The company's Fusion camera shoots 360-degree panoramic footage that the viewer can subsequently pan and tilt within, to view the action from different perspectives.

MiniRig is a follow-up to the crowd-funded Smoovie magnetic gimbal smartphone stabilizer. The new device not only offers improved stabilization, but also adds lighting and audio features, allowing users to shoot more professional-looking video. The MiniRig is currently on Kickstarter.
