HERO 9: records in 5.3K with fps and in 4K with 60 fps

The HERO 9 has the first generation GoPro processor, so it doesn't reach the high frame rates that the does. You can record in 5K resolution with this action camera, with 30 fps. In 4K, the HERO 9 records with 60 fps. If you record sharp and smooth slow motion footage, you use a 2.7K or Full HD resolution. And you record with 120 or 240 fps, respectively.

Image stabilization

Horizon stabilization HERO 10

HERO 10: HyperSmooth 4.0

With HyperSmooth 4.0, GoPro improved image stabilization a bit more. You don't need a gimbal to record smooth videos, for example. The horizon stabilization was also improved. You can tilt the camera up to 45 degrees and the camera keeps the horizon straight. If you tilt the camera further, the image switches to the position of the camera. The horizon stabilization doesn't work with the maximum frame rates. Your camera crops the image because the horizon stabilization is electronic.

HERO 9: HyperSmooth 3.0

The GoPro HERO 9 has HyperSmooth 3.0 image stabilization. Your images almost look as smooth as with a gimbal. So you can easily record smooth and stable footage. If you use the horizon stabilization, you can tilt the HERO 9 up to 27 degrees. After that, the image rotates along with the position of the camera. You can't tilt the HERO 9 as far as the HERO 10. And the camera also crops the image with this horizon stabilization.

HERO 10: selfie screen 30-frame refresh rate

The new model also has the familiar selfie screen of the HERO 9. The refresh rate of the screen was optimized. This means that the footage looks smoother. The replaceable lens cover of the HERO 10 has a special coating. Drops of water fall off of it faster as a result. That's useful when you go surfing and submerge the camera often. This way, you won't be bothered by annoying drops in your videos.

HERO 9 lens

HERO 9: selfie screen 5-frame refresh rate

Due to the relatively low refresh rate of the HERO 9 selfie screen, footage looks a bit choppy. There's a delay, because the screen has a 5-frame refresh rate. That's much lower than the 30 frames of the HERO 10. The HERO 9 has a replaceable lens cover without the special coating. That means that drops stay on the lens cover and are sometimes visible in your videos. That's why you have to dry it off.

Conclusion

If you switch from a GoPro HERO 9 to a HERO 10, the difference isn't big. Both cameras record in 5.3K resolution. The most important difference is in the frame rates. With the HERO 10, you can record with double the amount of frames per second for a smoother result. This is also more suitable for slow motion videos. Thanks to the improved horizon stabilization, the camera tilts further. In addition, the lens cover has a coating, so drops of water fall off of it more easily than they do with the HERO 9.
