GoPro MISSION 1 PRO ILS Firmware 4.01

The GoPro MISSION 1 PRO ILS Firmware 4.01 is an essential official system software update developed by GoPro to elevate the still capture capabilities and overall production performance of the interchangeable-lens GoPro MISSION 1 PRO ILS cinema camera. Built around an active Micro Four Thirds lens mount, the camera now features the Rapid Photo architecture, eliminating shutter lag to allow instantaneous frame capture when triggering exposures through manual glass and specialized cinema optics.

Alongside zero shutter lag, the GoPro MISSION 1 PRO ILS Firmware 4.01 unlocks continuous burst shooting for both standard images and uncompressed RAW files. Users can fire bursts of over 100 frames at 12 megapixels or capture more than 20 full-resolution 50-megapixel RAW exposures in rapid succession, supported by an on-screen buffer depth gauge and an audible confirmation click. The release also improves playback responsiveness when reviewing footage and high-resolution stills within the camera’s internal media gallery.

This firmware release reinforces the camera’s appeal for drone operators, vehicle rigging, and indie documentary filmmakers needing interchangeable optical versatility in a sub-200g footprint. The GoPro MISSION 1 PRO ILS Firmware 4.01 complements the exposure tools of the companion MISSION Monitor app (waveform, false color, and parade displays) while maintaining compatibility with GoPro Labs anamorphic de-squeeze extensions. The update can be installed wirelessly via the GoPro Quik mobile application or manually by copying update files to a formatted high-speed microSD card.
