Head To Head: Sony FDR-X3000 vs GoPro Hero 10 Black - Video Quality Comparison By Motorcycle Rider
Вставка
- Опубліковано 12 вер 2024
- It looks pretty obvious to me that the GoPro blows the Sony away when it comes to video quality, but does that make it worth putting up with the Hero's quirky, buggy, unreliable operation - or is the trusty Sony good enough? Both seem to manage to produce great audio, but there is a noticeable difference in video quality. See the still image captures at the end of the video for a great example of this.

Cameras: GoPro Hero 10 Black | Sony FDR-X3000
Still use my 2 Sony 3000s, simple reason is they have a audio jack plug for mic, unlike the GoPros add on stuff ya have to do.
They are so much better to use mate, 100%. The GoPro is a pain in the arse 🙈
Amazing to think the FDR-x3000 was released in 2016. A year before the GoPro 6 black.
4 generations of GoPro later, its still comparable.
Great camera the X3000, wish they had released a successor it would have been mint 🍃
x3000 was release before that gopro 5 :P (check on google ;P)
Either one is great, you could pick the differences when looking hard at them both. The GoPro wins on detail but that is expected when the file sizes are double that of the Sony! Strangely the Sony had better detail on the road surfaces?! 😳 I would say what ever works for you best is going to be the one to use... Because no one's Gunna know the difference! 👍 Great review 👍
Maybe GoPro's got a deal with Main Roads to hide all the shit they haven't fixed 😁 Cheers Mark happy NYE to yourself and Nay 🍻
@@MVDBR now thats funny🤣🤣👍
Gopro is clearer visually and the stabilization is better but it is too smooth for motorcycle riding, it's more like drone footage. Colour is better on the Sony although not as sharp picture. Stabilization gives more sense of riding a motorbike and the sound is better with Sony. Both cameras will film a Yowie as blurry, this much is true.
Yeah I totally agree on the stabe man, wish the GoPro had a Sony-like stabilisation setting. That was set on the lowest setting as well 🙄 Wish the Sony didn't have such a muddy look, if the quality was a little better it would be my choice hands down. But even the 4k on the Sony doesn't look real good. Maybe it was designed by fkn yowies, they didn't want anyone getting clear footage of them 😬
I think the Gopro looks a bit more detailed. But I guess you need to look at battery life memory life, cost etc. That's what would be the winner for the user.
Yessir, the Sony wins pretty much every category other than picture quality (in my opinion) which makes it a difficult choice cause picture quality is pretty important to me!
The GoPro hands down for me Joshy, so much clearer and sharper especially on the move, the audio very similar, The sony does the job but GoPro wins this comparison for me, have an awesome NYE 🍻🎉😁🤘🏼
Yeah it makes me wonder if some of the people who say they are the same video quality have even worse eyesight than me mate haha 😅 I persist with the fkn GoPro even tho the issues keep coming... just today using it normally trying to do time lapses in the backyard and suddenly it's like the fkn thing reset itself asking me to choose a language and set the time and all that crap 😭 Happy New Year G, from Nat & I and the fucking GoPro buried in the backyard 😅 Just kidding it's got the best quality I can't stay mad at the damn thing lol
its about image quality. not about sharpness lol
Definitely the GoPro. Better detail and color.
GoPro is better with sharpness,stabilization...but Sony is still very good "old" camera.Shame that they do not upgrade those couple action cameras launched years ago.Maybe not interested in action cams at all?! Nice comparison.
Yeah agreed, would be great to see an updated Sony model 👌
@@MVDBR EIS does crop your video on all Gopro camera's tho, which is deal breaker for me. My Sony video is rock solid on my helmet
Happy New Year! Thanks so much for sharing and fun and I even learned stuff; I am voting GoPro...the split screen was blowing my mind/vision...LOL All the best for the New Year..... David...Adelaide...Tiger 900GT & Street Scrambler...
Cheers David all the best for 2022 mate 💪
There both good enough to watch. So what ever is easier for you. Love all the videos you and Nat do. Have a good new years.
Cheers Mark same to you 🍻
Funny how the GoPro is sharper in every detail except the road surfaces. I could see waterbar depth, rocks and ruts way clearer and sooner on the Sony. Even on pavement I could see imperfections that I almost couldn't see on the GoPro. Maybe the GoPro washes out to get a sharper image?
That is a bizarre phenomenon, I never noticed until a couple of you guys mentioned it. Very odd 🤔
Without the split screen no one would pick the difference
20k subscribers hey. Good one Josh n Nat
🎉
I'm still vlogging with the Sony X3000 today. I have no tolerance for buggy operation, freezing and lost footage that everyone using a GoPro has experienced. I can't redo an experience or interaction while travelling if I lose the footage.
Everybody I know whoever uses a GoPro Hero 5 or a GoPro Hero 7 say they have a problem with their freezing. Not recording but I've never heard people really complain about the Sony action camera I still think the Sony action camera is still a good bang for your buck
GoPro has my vote tho the Sony gives more sense of speed due to the stabilisation not being as good as the GoPro. End of the day 99% of people won’t see the difference between the two unless you tell them.
Yep 100% prefer the Sony stabe, thanks for the input Steve what camera are you currently using mate?
What is most annoying is that Sony discontinued this line. Unfortunately now the x3000 costs more second-hand can a brand new GoPro Hero 11 black.
And as good as the x 3000 was at the time, the hero 11 black is a far better camera, because it has excellent dynamic range, far better stabilisation, longer lasting battery, etc.
So there's only really applies to people that still got the x 3000 and are thinking of upgrading.
It really doesn't make sense to go and buy a second-hand model unless you can get it really cheap. Even the Osmo Action 1 might be better than the x3000.
The x3000 still is useable in 2023, but not worth its current asking price .
I've got mine for sale at the moment I can't even get $200 for it
@@MVDBR you can buy excellent used cameras for this price that outperform the x3000.
But if I was looking for an X 3000 then I would consider giving you a price for it.
The low light on the gopro is actually garbage though. The sony sensors are so much better.
I was looking for batteries for my x3000 that I used once a few years ago. Was puzzled by the new and used prices for these things. I was going to look at getting a gopro, but might actually use this x3000 now.
I recently got an X3000 with the monitor, 4 batteries, a dual charger and probably 100 worth in clamps, grips and arms for 100 less than what the DJI Osmo action 4 costs here. I know it's not the best camera but it is more than good enough for me to use on (family) trips
The GoPro is definitely lighter and more detailed than the Sony yet the Sony’s contrast brings out details the GoPro doesn’t in my opinion, so the burning question is which is the easiest to use from your point of view?
I guess one day we’ll be able to get a matrix plug in the back of our neck plug a camera in so everything as we see it can be caught on video 🤣
Bring on the matrix plug! 😁 Mate the Sony's shape makes it a pain in the ass to mount to a helmet in my opinion, cause I do like the chin mount view best. But other than that, the Sony is 100% the better helmet cam. It's a no fuss, efficient and easy to use solution without any of the bells and whistles you don't need for such an application 👌
@@MVDBR there’s a $1000 Oz made helmet with a camera built into the chin gard
Yeah nahh 😁
I think the audio sounded better on the GoPro, but that could just be mic placement. I think the GoPro looked more natural, the Sony made the dirt look yellow and the grass greener, but lost the detail.
Happy new year to you both BTW, am looking forward to seeing your 2 wheeled antics in 2022
Hey Pete literally just this morning I was doing some time lapses in the backyard with the GoPro, turned it off at one point with still 80% battery, came back to use it again and it turned on as if it had just been reset, asking me to choose a language and set the time and all that bullshit. All the settings gone. Gotta love that kinda shit 😅😫😅😫
Oh and cheers mate happy new year to you good sir 😎👍
@@MVDBR Ahh man, they drive us crazy don't they!
@@HippoDrones click click boom 😭
I just don't know which one is better, both I could watch no problem, thanks Josh.
Haha cheers mate, happy NYE 🍻
Image quality is good for both, what matters most to me at this point is which is easier to use/charge/download from. What are your thoughts? What are accessories like for the Sony?
Plenty of accessories for both available but as I mentioned in the vid the Sony is no longer being sold so unless you can get one second hand you're SOL. Mate if the video quality was the same I would reach for the Sony every time, 100%. So much more reliable and easy to use.
Overall the Gopro seems to better in detail.Colour from sony seems to be over saturated at times.I would just live with the Gopro.On balance you could live with either.Thanks for the comparison.
Cheers Bruce yeah I think I will stick with the GoPro until if/when it's unreliability causes me to rethink my life choices 😅 Either way the GP makes an excellent 3rd camera for off the bike filming so it will not go to waste 👌
Attended a pre holiday party last night, woke up with a bit of a hangover. The split screen video was not helpful. 🥴 I reckon out of the 4 or so screens, the 2 on the left edged out the others. (+Sony) Oh well that was interesting, LOL. 👍🏼 🍾 🍺 🥂 Happy New Year 🎆 🎊👍🏼
Hahaha cheers Bradley 👀 Happy NYE mate 🍻
Josh, so good to see the side by side comparison. In my opinion the Gopro was sharper and more defined, and I thought the better picture quality. The audio on both cameras was very similar, however at 100 kph the Sony mic was not as good. I suppose the Sony no longer available, gives the Gopro the advantage. 👍😁
Yeah agree mate not much point looking to purchase a Sony unless you can pick one up 2nd hand, but possibly some folks out there are wondering if it's worth the coin to jump to the GoPro 😬 Happy NYE Bob! 🍻
I run my FDR-X3000 on Vivid at 60 fps. Why are you running at 30 FPS? Just curious.
Usually it's set on 60 but I wanted to try 30fps as it appears that the camera shoots 50mbps for both 30 & 60 so I had a theory that 50 megabits spread over half the number of frames in any given second might equal twice the quality, but sadly no 😁
thanks for the ride along comparison eh Josh,
I must say tho to me, for me..the Sony is better,
looks more natural (most of the time),
the GP looks to bright, when you turned onto the dirt road, the Sony made the road look like a dirt road, the GP looked faded in comparison,
there are a few times when the GP was much better but imho it does not warrant the price being just a GP 9.5,
appreciate your time my friend and send you, Nat much love, many good vibes!
digging the new crib, pretty tight set up and am stoked for yous guys,
bless up brothers and sisters,
ride safe and ride often eh!
B^)
Thanks for the input brutha, happy NYE 🍻
THANK YOU FOR THIS GOOD REVIEW PLEASE TELL US WHICH ONE OF THOSE HAS MORE ACCURATE COLOR
Neither of them is great at that but probably the Sony has more accurate colour straight out of the camera.
Interesting. Never had a GP myself. I got the Sony based on being happy with an older model Sony (lost the bugger - somewhere😠), and wanted the stabilization of the Sony. Have you tried comparing Sony's active versus standard setting? Sometimes the active looks TOO smooth to me. Sony looks more "natural" in colour - warmer tint, compared to the cooler blue of the GP to me. How did you do the white balance? Did you use a 50% grey card like some photographers use? Totally agree with comments on the Sony sound. It is a bitch to deal with the "hot" microphone. Do you always shoot MP4 format or have you tried the HD - XAVC S on the Sony? From memory, I think there are faster frame rates up to 1080 - 120p - 100M available. Lastly, the Sony seems to have a higher contrast where the GP looks a little washed out to me. Now you gotta start stuffing around with exposure compensation, if ya want to be really anal about the in-camera settings. So many settings! 😵
Nah never tried any stabe other than active on the Sony, it looks good to me a lot better on the bike than the gimbal-like GoPro 🤷♂
No nothing so technical with the white balance lol I just like the 5000k on the GoPro they say 5600 is the best for sunlight conditions but I find it too warm, just tried to match the Sony to that by eye but it seems to change depending on what you're filming not sure which one is inconsistent.
Sony is set to XAVC yeah. Just wanted to try 30fps as it appears that the camera shoots 50mbps for both 30 & 60fps so I had a theory that 50 megabits spread over half the number of frames in any given second might equal twice the quality, but sadly no 😅
The contrast and shit is mostly my fault since they were both filmed in flat, I've tried reducing the EV on the GoPro but wasn't happy with the results.
Yeah way too many settings sometimes it's best to just stick it all in auto and send it 😅 Cheers 🍻
Well josh I reckon they both have there differences in a good way and not so good so whatever you use will look awesome ether way. So happy new year 🥳 to you both and don’t drink too much and stay out of trouble lol cheers 🍻
Thanks mate yeah I guess most people wouldn't really give a shit which camera but thought some of these basterds might be interested in a side by side 😎 Happy NYE to you mate 🙌
Gopro by far, but too smooth
Sony X3000 still king! Overall, still smooth and natural images.

Great video camera comparison Josh, GoPro the go Bro, happy new year Josh and Nat👍👍🍻🍻🍷🍷
Cheers Mike you too 🍻🍻
Really good picktures on both, l would use the one that works all the time without shutting down
Don't say that! Logic must not prevail! Haha thanks for the input mate you do talk sense. Happy NYE 🍻
Both are great. It’s the content that really matters, so if one is more reliable and easier to use than the other, then maybe that’s going to be better in the long run as your main forward looking camera. I hate it when you find out later that the camera froze and you lost some good footage Cheers .
You talk 100% sense mate but it's hard to go past that GoPro quality. I reckon I'll give it another chance or 2 and see how we go 😬🙈
its amazing how 5 years old Sony still head to head with 1 year old GoPro
The colours on the Gopro looked more natural to me, the Sony looked like it darkened them. Not sure if that is how to describe it. For instance, the landscape looked more lush type colours on the Sony, and a bit more dry on the Gopro.
Could have partly been my dodgy grading although I did only add what I thought was a reasonable amount of contrast and satch to them both 🤷♂ Guess it boils down to quality or reliability 😭 Thanks for the input mate 🍻
Gopro seems to have slightly better dynamic range. The dirt in the off-road ride looked a little more red on the Sony, but of course I wasn't there so I can't say which one was closer to true colour. Both are really good cameras! If you've got a Sony then I don't think it would make sense to spend the money to buy the Gopro.
I've got the Sony and it's a great, simple, reliable camera. I've also got a Gopro 7 black and I like the features and image quality but I HATE the buggy firmware.
Agree with all you say mate, and yeah I think that dirt colour difference was the white balance playing silly buggers. It's hard to get 2 different cameras to look exactly the same without properly colour grading each scene but fuck that noise lol. They are both good cams, GP has the edge on quality, Sony definitely owns the reliability 😭
dont think id complain about either one lol , they both look good and do the job
When i watched on my phone they looked very similar but on the computer the gopro looked a bit sharper . Both work though ...most of the time haha, Cheers sir.
Damn that fkn GoPro 😣
@@MVDBR haha
Everyone seems to rave about the Gopro's blowing the Sony away. In my experience using both, the Sony never has an issue where you wonder if it's still recording while riding, particularly if it is overheating. The Sony just works consistently. The Sony also doesn't need to crop the video to stabilize it, allowing you to keep more of your subject in the frame which is a big deal to me. I have used both mounted on my helmet for week long trips so dependability is a big deal for me, and the Sony wins for me every time
Good stuff mate, at the end of the day use what works best for you 👌
Amagansett press in the u.s changed to Sony, after his go pro's kept over heating and shutting down mid set..
The difference is he's bow got a huge camera/lense combo to hold, lug around.
ua-cam.com/video/K__8_q4Ol0I/v-deo.html
Interesting comparison. The Gopro will have the advantage with the stills as it has a higher resolution sensor, also when you have the camera in Hypersmooth it also runs at a high shutter speed giving less motion blur. For fast paced action stuff the Gopro is the winner. If you are indoor or vlogging to camera the Sony has the advantage, lower shutter speeds give more motion blur for a smoother look and less of a fish eye distortion effects from the lens. Colours are also more natural (notice the blue-purple sky vs the Gopro blue only sky) and mainly for Ozzys it has native PAL support which was dropped on the most recent 2 Gopro generations.
I dunno if it's the same thing or not but you can still set the GoPro 10 to 50Hz on the anti-flicker which gives ya 25/50/100 fps instead of 30/60/120 etc 👍
Before watching this video I'm going to stay the Sony action camera has always had amazing image stabilization great image quality It's just sad that they don't continuously make them anymore and they were one of the only high-quality competitors to GoPro they had a 3.5 mm headphone jack. So you didn't need some weird adapter like what GoPro makes you use
don't look strait on this wideo, this x3000 has lens issue (is popular issue for this cam, after little crash or hit to cam). look is cetral point of picture is blur and edges is sharp. another look at 5:36 and close up image is amazing sharp but blur background (it has fixfocus is it imposiblem to lens bokeh(blur)), it is because one lens in boss module move and move focus point... that's why x3000 is good but very weak cam. For real action is better to buy gopro/dji/insta360
GoPro for sure
Best thing about sony fdr x3k is.. ois & 3.5 mm jack ... No doubt Its internal mic is the best...
Motion clarity on the GoPro hands down. I liked the "pop" on the Sony. But in the end its a motorbike channel and motion is important, to me anyway. Audio was fine on both. I think the audio sounded nicer on the Sony.
Thanks for the comment man 👌
6:12 interesting, because I see much more highlights protection but shadows you can bight up in program and you will see how much information is in sony files, you cant do it with gopro files. Second in sony you still have ground color, gopro has only 100% highlights. In photography way is better to have more shadows than highlights. Gopro NEED to change this sensor, is the weakest point of this sam (and small back screen) .
Ripper comparison vid I think the sony for colour , the go pro for stabilisation , Sony and drift mic for sound , and the go pro for the wider range of view , and you can see it delivers more detail , compareo on the black 10 and the DJI action 1 ?
Thanks Scott, I could do something similar with the Osmo for sure just need to bodgy up another temporary mount. And then wait for it to stop raining in Qld 😭🙄 Happy NYE mate 🍻

got a gopro8 black and I hate it. crashing every 10clips. audio is shit. image quality too. GPH10 is bigger and heavier than my mirrorless camera it does not make sense for me... my conclusion is that i'm gonna leave DJI and GOpro to switch on sony.
Sony 👍👍
X3000 has optical stabilisation and hence superior to software processor based stabilisation where gopro will oversharpen giving you a harsh action camera look and this is reflected in the image quality hence why they are still commanding top dollar on the second hand market
Hey Barry, fancy seeing you here. I'm still using the X3000 in my vlogs.
GoPro Hero 10 Black looks better overall.
Yes I think it definitely has a clear edge in the quality dept. Cheers Dave have a good NYE mate 🍻
Thank you for this video please tell me which one has true accurate color please
My vote would be the GoPro 🤔 but you have to get the settings right
The gopro is clearly sharper when looking side by side. Use whichever is the easiest to use. If your gopro is 100% hassle free like the sony, I might eventually make the move.
I'd settle for 80% hassle free at this point 😭 100% reliable appears to be a pipe dream for GoPro, stick with the Sony mate 🍻
Helmet cam mount for the Sony is a clearance item at jb hi-fi atm folks.
Sony for best video quality must use XAVC S HD , MP4 format are not good on X3000
Yep 🤙
Still GoPro is the winner It's waterproof so you can do filming whatever weather condition.
Sony is waterproof in it’s included housing. But yeah GoPro image wins but I guess it’s so much newer.
what? you can sony too is has weather siling everywhere, so it is weatherproof, but not waterproof... it's a difference.
GoPro😎👍. Nice little vid of the country.
Thanks mate, happy NYE 🍻
I can just say the sony is still hands down way better
I must admit. that the GoPro 10 video image and stabilisation looks more impressive. The GoPro has lower contrast and shows more detail in the shadows. However due to my past experiences with GoPro's, I will not be going back to them. The best thing I did in the action cam world, was switching to Sony. All my action cam problems disappeared once I made the switch. 😁👍🏼.
What problems did you have mate? I've had shitloads of trouble with GoPro which led me to switch to Osmo Actions a while ago, thought the reliability of GoPro might be improved with the new GP2 processor but no such luck really 🙄
@@MVDBR Well I've had three Go Pro's. Each one died very young and with little work. One decided that it would not turn on anymore. Another decided it would freeze at anytime, and it had a mind of its own. The third decided it would turn off, when ever it felt so. Like I've had enough already and I feel like a nap. The Sony action cam on the other hand, has worked without any problems and has greatly outlasted all three GoPro's combined. It's been a dream to own. 👍🏼😁
@@CamperKev yeah right ok thanks for the reply mate. I've had a number of GoPros over the years, the models prior to the 7 were great apart from no decent stabilisation, but ever since the 7s they have just been glitchy and unreliable in general. You're right, the Sony just works, every time. Starts recording relatively quickly, and just does a solid reliable job 👌 Wish Sony had gone down the route of updating it and releasing some new models.
@@MVDBR I agree with you. They need to release a new model or two. I'm ready to buy again, but I want to see an upgrade from Sony.
@@CamperKev I don't think it's gonna happen unfortunately but will keep fingers crossed anyway 🤞
gopro is best detail in all aspects
That dynamic range is making me dizzy
Haha me too mate 😁
I have the non-4K Version of that Sony and it's an amazing Camera. I don't understand why the sharpness and "cispyness" is not visible in your video.
Anyways, you can find the non4k for below 150 dollar and the 4k is about 200. Nice deals for a great camera and no overheating - but in some cases the 4k version might loose some image stabilisation because the Glue (?) got too hot and melted?
The bitrate is too low with the Sonys, also the form factor kinda sucks for attaching to a helmet. But the GoPro are overpriced and crash all the time. Can't win 😭
@@MVDBR the form factor is indeed a bit strange nowadays. I just got my motorbikes a couple of weeks ago and was looking to buy a GoPro 8 (preloved for 180 bucks). I dont want to spend that much for a GP10. Super hard decision... I don't want to get a 360 camera, because I dont use those things :/
@@SirHelios yeah the GP10 is pretty expensive but it's not quite so bad if you get it with the subscription and just cancel that a week later. Still over 500 AUD tho. If you can find a Hero 7 Black we had a few of those, great quality and a replaceable lens cover unlike the 8.
I've never been real interested in 360 cams either
My GoPro Never cRaShEd!
1 question. what apps do you use for color grading?
Most video editing programs have some form of grading, I use Vegas Pro
Sony … wins , good comparison though. I wonder will dji or GoPro ever beat this camera .. which is… how many years old now ?
Sony wins on a lot of points but not image quality 😜
@@MVDBR With the Sony you must shoot in Vivid. The flat profile it's not good at all. At Vivid you only have to raise the contrast and saturation, but just a bit.
The GoPro does look better but the FOV on the Sony is still nicer, it's a shame Sony killed that camera line, they are still super popular with travel vloggers and IRL streamers (both old and new), the prices for used sony action cams are now ridiculously high as a result (many twitch IRL streamers hoard those cameras). A twitch IRL streamer was at big industry pro camera event in US and spoke to Sony's camera people, they were completely clueless about the enduring popularity of the Sony actions cams or the prices they now go for, no plans to bring them back.
Maybe I'll hold onto mine and sell it for a ridiculous price 😬
1080 @ 30fps Sony vs 1080 @ 60fps for GoPro. You just wasted your time comparing apples with oranges.
No
This is a great comparison. I can pick up a Sony for $65 on Facebook with its case or on eBay for under 200 with a huge load of accessories.
The GOPRO does have a lot shaper picture, but is it worth the cost???
Probably not, it's not noticeably better than any other GoPro since the 7. If you could get a Hero 7 2nd hand cheap that would be ideal 🍻 People around here are asking wayyyyy to much for them though
GoPro all the way mate
Yeah it's hard to go past that picture quality 😵
Sorry, but the GoPro is a lot better to watch, and even the audio seems better.

Does the Sony overheat like the gopro?
I haven't had any overheating issues BUT when it's in the waterproof case it does warm up and the lens fogs up which is a real bitch 💩
@@MVDBR This is true. No fogging issue once your on speed above 30 kph. On traffic situation on busy streets on summer midday, the lens does easily fogs up inside the waterproofing case.
