However, after using it for a few weeks, this camera is missing some major features that I feel could have easily been added. ----------------------------------------------------- TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 – Intro: Why I’m confused about the GoPro Lit Hero 0:10 – First look: Built-in front light (3 brightness levels) 0:24 – Size comparison vs DJI Osmo Action 2, Insta360 Go 3S & Go Ultra 0:46 – Price shock: $269–279 and already planning to return it 1:12 – Who is this camera actually for? (Spoiler at the end) 1:37 – Positives #1: Tiny all-in-one body with back screen 1:54 – Positives #2: Full GoPro quick-release + ¼-20 mount compatibility 2:20 – Price comparison: Lit $269 vs DJI Nano $329 vs Insta360 Go Ultra $449 2:40 – The “Lit” light concept – cool idea, but often blinding in practice 3:40 – How I normally use thumb-sized action cams (POV, BTS, kids, etc.) 3:50 – Major downside #1: NO in-camera stabilization in 2025 (!!) 4:33 – You MUST use GoPro app or Quik to apply HyperSmooth later 4:56 – Even the ancient DJI Action 2 has built-in stab + a screen 6:10 – Downside #2: Fixed super-wide FOV only (no narrower options) 6:39 – Limited modes: Only 4K30 video, 4K60 “slow-mo”, 12MP photos, 4:3 7:50 – Waterproof to 16 ft, built-in battery, microSD only, no internal storage 8:10 – Weird off-center twist-off lens cover that feels loose 8:36 – Low-light performance struggles (tiny 1/2.8" sensor) 8:47 – Final verdict: Who this is for + why $269 is way too expensive 9:18 – Buy a DJI Action 4 instead for the same money + outro ----------------------------------------------------- 🏷️ CURRENT DISCOUNTS: Free 30 Day Trial of Epidemic Sound: https://geni.us/zDBuW FlytCase by FlytPath (limited stock): https://www.flytpath.com/shop Enhance your YouTube channel: https://www.tubebuddy.com/aldryn ----------------------------------------------------- 📷 MY CORE VIDEO GEAR USED: Main video camera: https://geni.us/zu0h Main wireless mic: https://amzn.to/3WYOnwp Tamron 17-28 2.8: https://geni.us/Kip2tfN Tamron 28-75 2.8: https://amzn.to/2KwleRq My Studio Tripode: https://amzn.to/43d33LR Studio Mic: https://geni.us/oWiw Studio lights front: https://amzn.to/47pmgfF Studio lights rear: https://amzn.to/47W8Qbb Camera Memory cards I use: https://amzn.to/3yerziK Action camera memory cards: https://amzn.to/47sH7io My daily backpack: https://amzn.to/47qaqlF My travel roller / backpack: https://amzn.to/4hJ3UtD ----------------------------------------------------- 👕 FLYTPATH MERCHANDISE https://teespring.com/stores/flytpath ----------------------------------------------------- 🛒 MORE GEAR I'VE REVIEWED https://www.amazon.com/shop/flytpath ----------------------------------------------------- 🔗 STAY CONNECTED https://www.flytpath.com https://www.instagram.com/aldryn/ https://twitter.com/ace https://www.facebook.com/theflytpath ----------------------------------------------------- 👍 If you found value in my video, please don't forget to give it a big thumbs up.
