Product details

This premium camera shoots at up to 4K/30fps to reproduce your experiences with crisp, clear details. The VIRB Ultra 30 also has 3-axis image stabilization for shots with the smoothest possible image -
such as snowboarding, cycling or off-road tours.

Your active lifestyle is actually more than just showing video and sound. Add relevant performance data about G-Metrix technology, including speed, altimeter, g-forces and even heart rate. The integrated Garmin GPS (10Hz; position measurement 10x/s) and other sensors record data automatically. You can display these as data fields and graphics in your recordings and prove how far, how high and how fast you were on the way. Other compatible Garmin sensors and devices can also be paired with the VIRB to get more out of your camera and provide detailed measurement data tailored to your activities. The "Compatible Devices" and "Accessories" tabs contain a list of compatible products and sensors.

The free VIRB app makes it easy to share HD recordings via live streaming on YouTube. So the next time you climb the mountain by bike or at a great concert, you can share these experiences with the world immediately.

Even if you don't want to send your recordings around the world, you can enjoy the benefits of the wireless features of your VIRB Ultra 30 by connecting it to the VIRB app. With this free app and a compatible smartphone or tablet, you can set up your recording perfectly, operate multiple cameras, edit recordings and even share them with others. WLAN streaming is also possible with Miracast-enabled devices such as Roku.

Now, with the VIRB Ultra 30, it's easier than ever to capture the most amazing moments of your life. In the bright LCD color touch screen you can see directly recorded. The intuitive touch screen can even be operated in the supplied underwater housing, and the simple menu navigation allows you to quickly adjust the settings. One-touch operation lets you quickly turn your camera on and off at the touch of a button or take a quick photo in the middle of your action.

Of course it is also necessary to be able to operate your camera when it is not within reach, mounted on the helmet or your hands simply have to do something else. Just in case, the VIRB Ultra 30 has voice control, using Sensory TrulyHandsfree technology. Simply use voice commands such as "start recording" or "take a picture" to control the camera hands-free. You can even order your VIRB Ultra 30 to "remember that" to bookmark it so you can recall it quickly and easily.
