THE TL;DW
- Markiplier puts the newly announced GoPro Mission 1 Pro ILS side-by-side with the RED Komodo-X he used to film his movie Iron Lung.
- The Mission 1 ILS is GoPro’s first camera with swappable Micro Four Thirds lenses, built around a 50MP 1-inch sensor with 8K video and up to 14 stops of dynamic range.
- Markiplier says the image quality gap between the sub-$1,000 GoPro and the $7,000+ cinema camera is smaller than expected, though the video is sponsored and includes his GoPro promo code.
The Jupiter Take
This is a sponsored gear comparison, not an independent lab test, so Markiplier’s “shocking” results should be read as his personal take rather than verified benchmarks. Still, the Markiplier GoPro Mission 1 review lands right as GoPro pushes its new ILS line at professional filmmakers and vloggers alike.
Context
GoPro opened pre-orders on the Mission 1 Pro ILS this week, marketing it as “the world’s smallest, most rugged cinema camera” at a fraction of the cost of comparable 8K systems. Markiplier has been vocal about anticipating this camera for months and is now testing it against the RED Komodo-X, a professional cinema camera he actually used to shoot his film Iron Lung.
