GoPro Max Lens Mod (HERO11 Black/HERO10 Black/HERO9 Black) - Official GoPro Accessory

good fit and function for GoPro

It’s like voodoo how this thing works. Super fun to use this lens on a chest strap while mountain biking. The stabilization with this lens is incredible.

Fast shipped, accurate shipment delivery tracking status updates, high quality item, I recommend both the seller and this product

Fantastic

Not easy to put on and off the camera, yet the lens and its features are very good.Usually, I do not review this early in ownership.Yet, this is something to mention now.For me, both the default lens cover (on my GoPro Hero 9) and this Max lens are both extremely hard to get off and on with first few usages.It was to the point I had to use a cloth (to protect the lenses) and an adjustable slip joint channel lock piers to get both lenses on and off.A tip is to use the Max lens case to hold the Max lens as much as possible when taking the Max lens on and off.After a few of uses of taking on and off, both lenses were a little bit easier to take on and off. Yet, still very hard to take both lenses off and on.Hopefully within time of taking both lenses off and on will make it easier to take on and off in the future.I believe this is due to the lens mount on the camera (GoPro Hero 9) itself and not the mount on the lenses. Which would explain why some do not have this problem, while others do have this problem.If this does not work for you in time, then the Max lens has its Lifetime warranty, and the GoPro Hero 9 has one year warranty.Also, with the yearly subscription with GoPro online services they will also give you complete replacements of your camera as well (two replacements per year I believe).I will try to work it out to loosen it a bit. To see if that works.Otherwise, the Max lens for the GoPro Hero 9 is well worth it

Its not as hard to install, i think other guys installed it incorrectly. Use two hands to twist oppositely the camera and lens.

Works as described

PROS:- great wide view with very minimal fisheye effect- enables you to film in hypersmooth boost mode with horizon lock on (can spin camera in full 360 and always maintains flat & stable horizon - extremely stable footy in worst conditions imaginable)- still waterproof- great qualityCONS:- very hard to put on/remove the first time or two - get a friend with strong hands to put it on if you struggle *DON'T USE TOOLS!- cannot film in 4K/5K - limited to 2.7K max (I get around this by shooting in 2.7K with 16:9 aspect ratio, then I upscale the footage to 4K with a 16:9 ratio - this allows you to upload to YouTube in 4K and is super easy to do with any film software - I post videos on Instagram in 16:9 as well so my videos aren't cropped)- no ND filtering capabilities - I wish they sold two versions of the same mod so that I could have one with ND filtering to provide a cinematic distortion effect to the outer portions of the road/trail when I'm riding my motorcycle/dirt bike.- expensive, but worth it for shooting in bumpy/fast conditionsNo regrets on the purchase. Even doubled down to get a second one for my other Hero 9 that I shoot with while riding.
