- Imaging
- Image Sensor Type: CMOS (CCD and CMOS are the two main technologies used in image sensors. CCD, the older of the two types, turns analog light signals into digital pixels. This conversion happens without distortion, resulting in high-quality images. Newer CMOS sensors use transistors at each pixel to move electrical charges. CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)
- Image Sensor Size: 1/1.9" (6.74 x 5.05 mm)
- Image Resolution (Display): 5.3K (Refers to the number of pixels, both horizontally and vertically, used to either capture an image or display it. The higher the resolution the finer the image details.)
- Digital Zoom: 2x (A digital zoom is accomplished electronically, with no adjustment of the camera's optics, and no optical resolution gained in the process. The existing data is not enhanced or added to, merely displayed at a lower resolution, thereby giving an illusion of an enlarged image.)
- Optical Zoom: None (The optical zoom uses a combination of lenses that magnify the image prior to it being registered at high resolution by the imaging sensor.)

HERO13 Black is the camera for every creator. In addition to the 5.3K60 video and legendary GoPro durability, it’s compatible with new HB-Series Lenses. 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 HyperSmooth 6.0 video stabilization, automatic highlight videos and the ability to auto upload your footage to the cloud, HERO13 Black is a powerful combination of great tech and endless creative possibilities.
- HB-Series Lenses With Auto Detection: HERO13 Black is compatible with the HB-Series Lenses that let you instantly set up your camera for a variety of specialty shots. It also detects when a lens or filter is attached and automatically adjusts its settings accordingly.
- 5.3K video: 5.3K 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 slow-motion: HERO13 Black features our slowest slow-motion 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 slow-motion clips using our highest 5.3K resolution video to catch epic details that you’d never be able to see with the naked eye.
- Webcam + live streaming: Use HERO13 Black as an ultra versatile webcam, or live stream your next activity as you vlog with buttery-smooth HyperSmooth video stabilization and sharp resolution.
- HyperSmooth 6.0 stabilization: HyperSmooth 6.0 continues to set the bar for in-camera video stabilization—giving you impossibly smooth footage no matter how rough it gets. HyperSmooth AutoBoost ensures that you’re getting the widest stabilized footage possible by seamlessly adjusting the shot based on your speed and movement.
- Built-In 360° horizon: HERO13 Black’s Linear + Horizon Lock digital lens keeps the horizon steady, straight and smooth even if your camera rotates a full 360° during capture. Combined with HyperSmooth video stabilization, Horizon Lock gives your footage the super smooth look of professional productions.
- Extended runtimes in all conditions: Spend 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.
- More power options: HERO13 Black has more power options than any GoPro before it. The Contacto Waterproof Magnetic Power Cable and Door Kit features a magnetic link that gives you a quick and simple way to connect to an external power source. The Dual Battery Charger + Integrated Powerbank 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: 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 capture: HERO13 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: 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 video: HERO13 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 color 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 capture: HERO13 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 color + log encoding: HERO13 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 colors, 10-bit color delivers enhanced color 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 sync: Advanced 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 grabs: HERO13 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 favorite shots from your videos using the GoPro Quik app.
- Bluetooth audio connectivity: Bluetooth 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 tuning: Audio 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 QuikCapture: QuikCapture 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 stickers: GPS 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 screens: Frame 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 options: Create presets of your go-to settings—resolutions, frame rates, lenses and more—for all of your favorite activities and conveniently switch them up in just a few taps. You can personalize them with custom names right on the camera or with the GoPro Quik app.
- Highlight videos automatically sent to your phone: Simply 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.
- Easy editing with the GoPro Quik App: The 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 backup: Transferring content from your camera to your phone is simpler & faster than ever. HERO13 Black uses Wi-Fi 6 technology for faster, more reliable offloads to your phone & the cloud. You can also use 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.

Best action cam I’ve used
I’ve been using the GoPro Hero 13 mainly for surf sessions and hikes in Hawaii, and it’s exceeded my expectations. The image stabilization is next level — super smooth even when I’m riding waves or running. The 5.3K video looks sharp and crisp, and the colors are vibrant without needing much editing. The waterproofing is flawless, and the audio pickup is better than I expected for an action cam. Battery life is solid, especially with the Enduro battery, and the quick capture feature makes it easy to use even mid-session. The only small downside is the app can be a little slow sometimes when transferring footage. Overall, it’s the best GoPro I’ve owned — perfect for creators, athletes, or anyone who wants cinematic footage from their adventures.

GoPro Hero 13
The GoPro Hero 13 makes every moment feel epic. The 5.3K video is razor-sharp, the stabilization is butter-smooth, and the low-light shots look cinematic. It’s tough, waterproof, and has battery life that actually keeps up with the adventure. Whether I’m hiking, biking, or just chilling with friends, this camera turns everyday memories into movie scenes. Hands down the best GoPro yet.
