Since he has experience video editing, I think the Max2 would be a blast for him to use. [...] it captures 360 degrees and then you edit what you want to see.

I taught that Max 2 will be launch today, and watch some first impressions on YT, but it seems that we must wait some time....

having dedicated heat sinks with physical contact with problem components on MAX 2 should see a substantial improvement between generations

Max2’s heatsinks are on the “front” (the side opposite the screen), so they’ll presumably be facing into the wind for most activities. This helps a lot

Unfortunately without fairly strong air movement it overheated every single time even in close to freezing temperatures outside in less than 22 minutes.

Not having seen any real reviews on the MAX2 yet, who can say if it follows in the same boat. However, if it uses a true 4K sensor on both sides of the camera then it's going to offer FAR superior qua

If you're already paying for a gopro subscription, buy the max 2.

I would never recommend the GoPro Max 2. I have the original Max and I'm doubtful GoPro fixed many of these issues from the original, especially the software ecosystem.

Max 2 appears to have it. Seems with more and more of these leaks/teasers that Max 2 isn't going to be vaporware anymore.
r/gopropositive1
Max 2 is going to be a nice upgrade.
r/gopropositive7
That checks one of my must-haves. COMEON MAX2!!
r/goproneutral2
I want the max 2 as well. Seems like a great option. Mixed reviews so far though
r/goproneutral2
If you were using the Max 2 properly (stop and starting recording, not trying to record an hour at a time... something I never do with any camera) it's fine.

Found this link on google aswell but doesn't seem to work? https://www.goproau.com/t/gopro-max-2/
r/goproneutral3
That video is almost a year old, he's a wizard with stabilization, but unlikely the Max 2. Having said that, he posted this on his story the other day. So he has one out there.... https://preview
