We all like to take photos and have some cool memories to look at and remember that perfect vacation we had a few years ago. You are checking out all kinds of cameras and you are flooded with a lot of options and specifications that you don't even understand. 

Here you have 5 reasons why a GoPro can be the right choice for you:

1. Affordability 

   As an amateur photographer obviously you don't want to spend a lot of money on a camera that you will use most of the time when you are on vacation or when is hard to use your phone. A DSLR camera can be pretty expensive and you will have to buy the lens to keep it up to date all the time, and the price can go up fast. A current GoPro runs around $350 starting and you can always find deals for bundles or get a great price on the pre-owned market. Compare with any other type of camera is a fraction of the price and even if looks like a toy the performances are extraordinary. 

2. Small and rough

   A very important aspect that we cannot neglect is the size of this camera:     71x55x33.6 mm. That makes it very compact and very easy to carry with you everywhere you go. We have to be honest that there is nothing more frustrating than being on vacation and worrying about the big DSLR bag that you have to keep your eyes on. Besides the size, this camera is very well made: it is waterproof and shock-resistant so you can use it in the water, snow, or anywhere you like without the concern that you will break it. 

3. Performance

   For a small camera, the performance is very good. The GoPro Hero9 can shoot 4k videos at 60fps and 5k at 30fps. Besides that, a lot of new features make it unique. For example, you can take 20 mp photos, slow-motion videos, hyper smooth, super photo + HDR, you can take videos and photos underwater, and even live streaming at 1080p. In conclusion enough performance for an amateur with some features that are always cool to try out.

4. Perfect for editing

   One of the hard things, after you take a ton of photos and videos, is to edit them. Is not easy to edit and most of the software you find on the internet is for professionals and comes with a cost. GoPro Studio is a free software that anyone can download on their computer or laptop and start editing right away. Some of the key features are: playback and export photos and videos, add music to videos, edit points, motion effect, and more.

5. Mounts for every possible sport.

   Probably one of the most important things a GoPro can do is that you can mount them everywhere you can imagine. Doesn't matter if you are riding a bicycle or a motorcycle if you are on a boat or scuba diving, snowboarding, or sky diving you can mount a GoPro. With wide options of mounts on their website and a new build-in mounting for the camera, you just have to pick up the accessories that you need and start your adventure now!
