Re: Upgrading from GoPro, Seeking advice...

I'm sort of doing the opposite of you.  I was shooting video on a GoPro Hero 3 Black for about 5 years, then upgraded to the LX10/Nauticam.  I'm not super happy with the 4k stabilization out of this camera, on land I'm happy with it, underwater is the problem.  In 1080 it has 5 axis stabilization but you don't get the horizontal level stabilization in 4k.

I've tried adding arms/floats/lights for stability, but it's actually a bit better handheld with just the nauticam hand strap.

I find myself shooting 1080 60 with this camera primarily.  I just picked up a Hero 8 Black yesterday to see how much it's improved over the 3.

I am very picky when it comes to stabilization in my video.  Everything else I like about the LX10.
