GoPro is alleged to be ditching Ambarella for their new lineup

you guys think there will be any consequences? positive or negative?

Do you mean some rumors about GoPro's own 'GP1' SoC?

[nutsey]

I believe this SoC is based on Hisilicon Hi3559... Let's see if Hero6 Black will support 8K30 and 4K120...

I think he means GoPro Hero 6. The package photos:

4K – 60fps
1080p – 240fps

>>Let's see if Hero6 Black will support 8K30 and 4K120...
Do you know any small sensor that can work in these modes?

I heard Hero 6 would be Ambarella H2 or H22 Sensor no idea but rumoured 12MP IMX377 instead of IMX 317 8Mp for 16:9 or GoPro GP1 I guess.

Is Gopro going bargain basement? This Socionext Co. was only formed in Yokohama in 2015.

Socionext Co are going USB 3.1 and HDMI 2.0 and SD card UHS II (which no-one has) i/f on latest SoC series apparently. H.264/H.265
