HERO13 Black is the camera for every creator. In addition to best-in-class 5.3K60 video and legendary GoPro durability, it’s compatible with new HB-Series Lenses.1 These lenses expand your capture capabilities for the most immersive POV shots, the ability to focus closer than ever, easy-to-achieve motion blur using neutral density filters and cinematic anamorphic footage. A new more powerful Enduro battery extends recording time in all weather conditions, while an updated mounting system gives HERO13 Black more mounting flexibility than any GoPro before it. With essential GoPro features including award-winning HyperSmooth 6.0 video stabilization, automatic highlight videos and the ability to auto upload your footage to the cloud,2 HERO13 Black is a powerful combination of leading-edge tech and endless creative possibilities.
Key Features
HB-Series lenses with auto detection1HERO13 Black is compatible with the HB-Series Lenses that let you instantly set up your camera for a variety of specialty shots. The Ultra Wide Lens Mod is the ultimate POV lens for action-packed scenes and epic landscapes. The Macro Lens Mod captures close-up shots in stunning detail. Neutral Density Filters add motion blur to your footage and let you adjust the lighting in your shots with professional results. Try the Anamorphic Lens Mod for pro-level cinematic shots. HERO13 Black even detects when a lens or filter is attached and automatically adjusts its settings accordingly.
Best-in-class 5.3K video5.3K video delivers breathtaking image quality with 91% more resolution than 4K and an incredible 665% more than 1080p. HERO13 Black captures the action with crisp detail and exacting image quality so any shot with any lens will look amazing. 5.3K video also lets you grab stunning photos up to 24.7MP from your footage using the GoPro Quik app.
Burst slo-moHERO13 Black features our slowest slo-mo ever with the ability to record video clips with the action slowed down to 13x normal speed. You’ll also be able to record short 4x slo-mo clips using our highest 5.3K resolution video to catch epic details that you’d never be able to see with the naked eye.
Rugged + waterproof to 10m (33ft)HERO13 Black was built to take a beating. It’s ready to capture the fun on any adventure whether you’re tearing through mud, snow or water (down to 33ft/10m). A water-repelling lens cover even helps eliminate lens flare and other artifacts to help keep your photos and videos crystal clear.
Award-winning HyperSmooth 6.0 stabilisationHyperSmooth 6.0 continues to set the bar for in-camera video stabilisation—giving you impossibly smooth footage no matter how rough it gets. HyperSmooth AutoBoost ensures that you’re getting the widest stabilised footage possible by seamlessly adjusting the shot based on your speed and movement.
Built-in 360° Horizon LockHERO13 Black’s Linear + Horizon Lock digital lens keeps the horizon steady, straight and smooth even if your camera rotates a full 360° during capture.4 Combined with HyperSmooth video stabilisation, Horizon Lock gives your footage the super smooth look of professional productions.
Extended runtimes in all conditionsSpend more time recording and less time charging. A higher-capacity 1900mAh Enduro battery gives you longer runtimes in all conditions, from hot to freezing and everything in between. You’ll get 1.5 hours of continuous recording at 4K30 or 5.3K30, plus over 2.5 hours of continuous recording at 1080p30.6
More power options (sold seperately)HERO13 Black has more power options than any GoPro before it. The Contacto Waterproof Magnetic Power Cable and Door Kit1 features a magnetic link that gives you a quick and simple way to connect to an external power source. The Dual Battery Charger + Integrated Powerbank1 features its own internal battery that can conveniently charge the 2 included Enduro batteries anywhere. It can also be plugged directly into your camera for extra-long recording sessions.
More mounting flexibility (sold seperately)HERO13 Black features 3 mounting options that make it more versatile than ever. The new Magnetic Latch Mount1 makes it faster and easier to swap your camera from one mounting setup to another. Use the built-in mounting fingers to securely attach your camera to GoPro mounts when you need durable mounting in rough conditions. The 1/4-20 mounting threads can be used with tripods and other standard camera accessories.
Easy hands-free captureHERO13 Black is packed with features that make it easy to get incredible footage when your hands are busy with handlebars, ski poles, tow ropes and more. It’s compact and light enough to wear comfortably using one of the many available GoPro body mounts. Once mounted, you can use voice commands for the ultimate in hands-free control.
Mounts for every activity (sold seperately)Bike mounts, surfboard mounts, car mounts, pole mounts, grips, extension poles and more. GoPro has mounts that’ll help you get any shot you can dream up. Capture your adventures from dramatic new angles and see them as you’ve never seen them before or record point-of-view footage and relive awesome moments exactly as you saw them.
HLG-HDR VideoHERO13 Black takes its best-in-class image quality to the next level with the option to record in Hybrid Log Gamma (HLG), a standard HDR format that the pros use to capture 5.3K and 4K video in the 10-bit and Rec. 2100 colour space. This advanced feature requires a compatible display and media player for playback. Users can still capture video using HDR without HLG for viewing on standard displays and media players.
Widescreen, vertical + full screen captureHERO13 Black’s powerful 1/1.9” image sensor lets you do more. Choose widescreen capture (16:9 aspect ratio) for full-screen playback on a TV or vertical videos (9:16 aspect ratio) for social media posting. For maximum versatility, the full frame option (8:7 aspect ratio) captures a 156° field of view that lets you crop in to create widescreen and vertical shots later.
10-Bit colour + log encodingHERO13 Black lets you choose between capturing standard video at 10-bit or Log encoding at 10-bit with GP-Log. Capable of displaying over 1 billion colours, 10-bit colour delivers enhanced colour depth, smoother gradations and more realism in your videos. Advanced users can use GP-Log to get more detail in their footage while making necessary image corrections in post-production (a lookup table/LUT is provided).
Timecode syncAdvanced users with more than one HERO13 Black can sync them with the exact same timecode to make multi-camera editing a lot easier. It works with Final Cut Pro®, Adobe® Premiere® and other editing software to further streamline post-production.
27MP Photos + 24.7MP frame grabsHERO13 Black takes 27MP Single, Interval, Burst and Night photos that let you capture standard, fast action and low-light shots. You can also grab stunning photos up to 24.7MP of your favourite shots from your videos using the GoPro Quik app.
Bluetooth® audio connectivityBluetooth® audio lets you wirelessly connect HERO13 Black to compatible devices. Use a wireless microphone for enhanced audio when narrating a scene or conducting interviews. By connecting to your wireless earbuds, your GoPro will be able to hear your voice commands in noisy settings or when it’s mounted out of earshot. You’ll also be able to hear camera alerts through your earbuds to confirm that it got the command and is doing what you want.
Audio TuningAudio Tuning lets you adjust sound recording to better fit what you’re capturing. Choose balanced true-to-life sound that’s great for most shots or the Voice setting that enhances vocal clarity while also preserving ambient background sounds.
Quicker QuikCaptureQuikCapture is the fastest and easiest way to power up HERO13 Black and start recording. All it takes is a press of the shutter button. Now you can also set your camera to idle without completely powering down. This lets you start recording again even faster. It’s the perfect way to stay flexible and ready to record during active shoots.
GPS + performance stickersGPS automatically captures telemetry data that can be overlaid as animated graphics in your video using the GoPro Quik app. It’s a visual way to show off your speed, path, terrain, altitude and G-forces while giving your videos an intense professional vibe.
Front + rear LCD screensFrame your shots perfectly with either the front or rear LCD screen. Use the large rear touch screen to capture the scene in front of you, or turn your camera around and use the front screen for vlogging and perfectly framed selfies.
More preset optionsCreate presets of your go-to settings—resolutions, frame rates, lenses and more—for all of your favourite activities and conveniently switch them up in just a few taps. You can personalise them with custom names right on the camera or with the GoPro Quik app.
Highlight videos automatically sent to your phone2Simply plug in your GoPro when connected to your home Wi-Fi. While it’s charging, your footage is automatically uploaded to the cloud and used to make a highlight video complete with beat-synced music and effects. Videos are automatically sent to your phone and ready to share.2
Easy editing with the GoPro Quik AppThe GoPro Quik app is loaded with easy-to-use tools that let you edit your footage like a pro. You can tweak the automatic highlight videos created by the app or make your own videos from scratch. You also have the flexibility to change digital lenses after recording and zoom in on the best sections of your footage to create high-resolution punchouts that focus on the action while cropping out the rest.
Faster transferring + unlimited cloud backup2Transferring content from your camera to your phone is simpler and faster than ever. HERO13 Black uses Wi-Fi 6 technology for faster, more reliable offloads to your phone and the cloud. You can also choose a lightning-fast wired connection via USB5 or use your SD card to transfer your content to a computer. There’s also unlimited cloud storage with hassle-free auto-upload.2 Just plug in your camera when connected to your home Wi-Fi and the camera does the rest.
Night effects video + photosHERO13 Black features 3 time lapse and photo modes that let you get creative after dark. Star Trails uses the Earth’s rotation and stars to capture beautiful light trails across the night sky. Light Painting lets you create brilliant brush stroke effects with moving light. Vehicle Light Trails uses night-time traffic to record stunning light trail shots.
Power toolsNail any shot with in-camera Power Tools. HindSight captures up to 30 seconds of footage before you start recording—even if you press the shutter too late, you’ll still get the shot. With Scheduled Capture, you can set your GoPro to turn itself on and get a shot up to 24 hours in advance. Duration Capture makes it easy to capture video clips from 15 seconds to 3 hours long. Interval Photo snaps photos at fixed intervals while you stay focused on your favourite activities.

HERO13 Black is the camera for every creator. In addition to best-in-class 5.3K60 video and legendary GoPro durability, it’s compatible with new HB-Series Lenses.1 These lenses expand your capture capabilities for the most immersive POV shots, the ability to focus closer than ever, easy-to-achieve motion blur using neutral density filters and cinematic anamorphic footage. A new more powerful Enduro battery extends recording time in all weather conditions, while an updated mounting system gives HERO13 Black more mounting flexibility than any GoPro before it. With essential GoPro features including award-winning HyperSmooth 6.0 video stabilization, automatic highlight videos and the ability to auto upload your footage to the cloud,2 HERO13 Black is a powerful combination of leading-edge tech and endless creative possibilities.
Key Features
HB-Series lenses with auto detection1HERO13 Black is compatible with the HB-Series Lenses that let you instantly set up your camera for a variety of specialty shots. The Ultra Wide Lens Mod is the ultimate POV lens for action-packed scenes and epic landscapes. The Macro Lens Mod captures close-up shots in stunning detail. Neutral Density Filters add motion blur to your footage and let you adjust the lighting in your shots with professional results. Try the Anamorphic Lens Mod for pro-level cinematic shots. HERO13 Black even detects when a lens or filter is attached and automatically adjusts its settings accordingly.
Best-in-class 5.3K video5.3K video delivers breathtaking image quality with 91% more resolution than 4K and an incredible 665% more than 1080p. HERO13 Black captures the action with crisp detail and exacting image quality so any shot with any lens will look amazing. 5.3K video also lets you grab stunning photos up to 24.7MP from your footage using the GoPro Quik app.
Burst slo-moHERO13 Black features our slowest slo-mo ever with the ability to record video clips with the action slowed down to 13x normal speed. You’ll also be able to record short 4x slo-mo clips using our highest 5.3K resolution video to catch epic details that you’d never be able to see with the naked eye.
Rugged + waterproof to 10m (33ft)HERO13 Black was built to take a beating. It’s ready to capture the fun on any adventure whether you’re tearing through mud, snow or water (down to 33ft/10m). A water-repelling lens cover even helps eliminate lens flare and other artifacts to help keep your photos and videos crystal clear.
Award-winning HyperSmooth 6.0 stabilisationHyperSmooth 6.0 continues to set the bar for in-camera video stabilisation—giving you impossibly smooth footage no matter how rough it gets. HyperSmooth AutoBoost ensures that you’re getting the widest stabilised footage possible by seamlessly adjusting the shot based on your speed and movement.
Built-in 360° Horizon LockHERO13 Black’s Linear + Horizon Lock digital lens keeps the horizon steady, straight and smooth even if your camera rotates a full 360° during capture.4 Combined with HyperSmooth video stabilisation, Horizon Lock gives your footage the super smooth look of professional productions.
Extended runtimes in all conditionsSpend more time recording and less time charging. A higher-capacity 1900mAh Enduro battery gives you longer runtimes in all conditions, from hot to freezing and everything in between. You’ll get 1.5 hours of continuous recording at 4K30 or 5.3K30, plus over 2.5 hours of continuous recording at 1080p30.6
More power options (sold seperately)HERO13 Black has more power options than any GoPro before it. The Contacto Waterproof Magnetic Power Cable and Door Kit1 features a magnetic link that gives you a quick and simple way to connect to an external power source. The Dual Battery Charger + Integrated Powerbank1 features its own internal battery that can conveniently charge the 2 included Enduro batteries anywhere. It can also be plugged directly into your camera for extra-long recording sessions.
More mounting flexibility (sold seperately)HERO13 Black features 3 mounting options that make it more versatile than ever. The new Magnetic Latch Mount1 makes it faster and easier to swap your camera from one mounting setup to another. Use the built-in mounting fingers to securely attach your camera to GoPro mounts when you need durable mounting in rough conditions. The 1/4-20 mounting threads can be used with tripods and other standard camera accessories.
Easy hands-free captureHERO13 Black is packed with features that make it easy to get incredible footage when your hands are busy with handlebars, ski poles, tow ropes and more. It’s compact and light enough to wear comfortably using one of the many available GoPro body mounts. Once mounted, you can use voice commands for the ultimate in hands-free control.
Mounts for every activity (sold seperately)Bike mounts, surfboard mounts, car mounts, pole mounts, grips, extension poles and more. GoPro has mounts that’ll help you get any shot you can dream up. Capture your adventures from dramatic new angles and see them as you’ve never seen them before or record point-of-view footage and relive awesome moments exactly as you saw them.
HLG-HDR VideoHERO13 Black takes its best-in-class image quality to the next level with the option to record in Hybrid Log Gamma (HLG), a standard HDR format that the pros use to capture 5.3K and 4K video in the 10-bit and Rec. 2100 colour space. This advanced feature requires a compatible display and media player for playback. Users can still capture video using HDR without HLG for viewing on standard displays and media players.
Widescreen, vertical + full screen captureHERO13 Black’s powerful 1/1.9” image sensor lets you do more. Choose widescreen capture (16:9 aspect ratio) for full-screen playback on a TV or vertical videos (9:16 aspect ratio) for social media posting. For maximum versatility, the full frame option (8:7 aspect ratio) captures a 156° field of view that lets you crop in to create widescreen and vertical shots later.
10-Bit colour + log encodingHERO13 Black lets you choose between capturing standard video at 10-bit or Log encoding at 10-bit with GP-Log. Capable of displaying over 1 billion colours, 10-bit colour delivers enhanced colour depth, smoother gradations and more realism in your videos. Advanced users can use GP-Log to get more detail in their footage while making necessary image corrections in post-production (a lookup table/LUT is provided).
Timecode syncAdvanced users with more than one HERO13 Black can sync them with the exact same timecode to make multi-camera editing a lot easier. It works with Final Cut Pro®, Adobe® Premiere® and other editing software to further streamline post-production.
27MP Photos + 24.7MP frame grabsHERO13 Black takes 27MP Single, Interval, Burst and Night photos that let you capture standard, fast action and low-light shots. You can also grab stunning photos up to 24.7MP of your favourite shots from your videos using the GoPro Quik app.
Bluetooth® audio connectivityBluetooth® audio lets you wirelessly connect HERO13 Black to compatible devices. Use a wireless microphone for enhanced audio when narrating a scene or conducting interviews. By connecting to your wireless earbuds, your GoPro will be able to hear your voice commands in noisy settings or when it’s mounted out of earshot. You’ll also be able to hear camera alerts through your earbuds to confirm that it got the command and is doing what you want.
Audio TuningAudio Tuning lets you adjust sound recording to better fit what you’re capturing. Choose balanced true-to-life sound that’s great for most shots or the Voice setting that enhances vocal clarity while also preserving ambient background sounds.
Quicker QuikCaptureQuikCapture is the fastest and easiest way to power up HERO13 Black and start recording. All it takes is a press of the shutter button. Now you can also set your camera to idle without completely powering down. This lets you start recording again even faster. It’s the perfect way to stay flexible and ready to record during active shoots.
GPS + performance stickersGPS automatically captures telemetry data that can be overlaid as animated graphics in your video using the GoPro Quik app. It’s a visual way to show off your speed, path, terrain, altitude and G-forces while giving your videos an intense professional vibe.
Front + rear LCD screensFrame your shots perfectly with either the front or rear LCD screen. Use the large rear touch screen to capture the scene in front of you, or turn your camera around and use the front screen for vlogging and perfectly framed selfies.
More preset optionsCreate presets of your go-to settings—resolutions, frame rates, lenses and more—for all of your favourite activities and conveniently switch them up in just a few taps. You can personalise them with custom names right on the camera or with the GoPro Quik app.
Highlight videos automatically sent to your phone2Simply plug in your GoPro when connected to your home Wi-Fi. While it’s charging, your footage is automatically uploaded to the cloud and used to make a highlight video complete with beat-synced music and effects. Videos are automatically sent to your phone and ready to share.2
Easy editing with the GoPro Quik AppThe GoPro Quik app is loaded with easy-to-use tools that let you edit your footage like a pro. You can tweak the automatic highlight videos created by the app or make your own videos from scratch. You also have the flexibility to change digital lenses after recording and zoom in on the best sections of your footage to create high-resolution punchouts that focus on the action while cropping out the rest.
Faster transferring + unlimited cloud backup2Transferring content from your camera to your phone is simpler and faster than ever. HERO13 Black uses Wi-Fi 6 technology for faster, more reliable offloads to your phone and the cloud. You can also choose a lightning-fast wired connection via USB5 or use your SD card to transfer your content to a computer. There’s also unlimited cloud storage with hassle-free auto-upload.2 Just plug in your camera when connected to your home Wi-Fi and the camera does the rest.
Night effects video + photosHERO13 Black features 3 time lapse and photo modes that let you get creative after dark. Star Trails uses the Earth’s rotation and stars to capture beautiful light trails across the night sky. Light Painting lets you create brilliant brush stroke effects with moving light. Vehicle Light Trails uses night-time traffic to record stunning light trail shots.
Power toolsNail any shot with in-camera Power Tools. HindSight captures up to 30 seconds of footage before you start recording—even if you press the shutter too late, you’ll still get the shot. With Scheduled Capture, you can set your GoPro to turn itself on and get a shot up to 24 hours in advance. Duration Capture makes it easy to capture video clips from 15 seconds to 3 hours long. Interval Photo snaps photos at fixed intervals while you stay focused on your favourite activities.
Easy or pro controlsChoose point-and-shoot simplicity or full camera control. With Easy Controls, just frame your shot and hit the shutter button for amazing results. The Pro controls unlock the ability to fine-tune all modes, settings and features.
