Image Quality – GoPros aren’t really meant to take quality pictures while DSLRs capture high quality and focused images and are meant for the same.
Winner? DSLR obviously.
Video stabilization – Primary concern to capture a video is its stability .You never would want your video to be unstable and blurry .As said earlier, no DSLR can beat the in-built stabilisation provided by the GoPros.
Hence GoPro wins the battle easily.
Size and weight – I personally prefer cameras having compact size and light weight but it depends on the user right? The smaller your cameras is the lesser are the chances that your display gets damaged easily. So I would choose GoPro over a DSLR when it comes to size and weight.
Waterproof – Don’t need to mention it again right? GoPro is clearly better.
User Friendly – GoPros aren’t complex .They don’t have much features or settings in them while a DSLR does .For a beginner it will be easy to use GoPro than any DSLR .
Lenses – GoPro has a small fixed lens .You can’t replace it .While with a DSLR you can try many lenses different from the one that came with it like the zoom lens. A DSLR lens is much larger and allows more light to enter (as well as have a 24MP sensor) and does have a lot of more options available.
Which Camera you should choose ?
That again brings us to the starting point “which is better ? GoPro vs DSLR “.You see that is a tough choice to make because that depends on user to user .They both have their pros and cons.
