- General
- Brand: GoPro
- Model Number: CHDHS-501
- Product Name: HERO5 Session 4K Action Camera
- Color: Black
- Product Set: Camera Only
- 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 Resolution (Display): 3648 x 2736 (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: None (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.)
- Image Stabilization: Digital (This feature helps reduce image/video blur or distortion that may occur from unsteady motion.)
- Low Light/High Sensitivity: true (High sensitivity digital imaging devices are designed to work in low light conditions to produce a high dynamic range image.)
- Focus
- Auto/Manual Focus: Automatic
- Exposure Control
- White Balance Modes: Auto (default), 3000K, 4000K, 4800K, 5500K, 6000K, 6500K, and Native (Settings that calibrates how the color white is rendered in an image/video, reducing the appearance of unnatural contrasts caused by various light sources.)
- Effective Pixels: 10 megapixels (The actual number of pixels which make up the viewable image.)
- Display
- Display Type: LED
- Aspect Ratio: 16:9 (The measurement of the width of a screen compared to the height of a screen, expressed as a ratio.)
- Video

Product Manuals
Q: Which would you recommend for a first time GoPro purchase?
A: Hero 5 black if you have the money. Hero 5 session if you still want a great product but want to save $100
Q: What is the difference between the hero5 and the hero5 session?
A: According to Best Buy's own comparison chart, and GoPro's website, MiltonMan12 is incorrect. His differences are true for the Hero 5 and Hero Session, but not for the Hero 5 Session, which is what the question was about. Supposedly, according to Best Buy and GoPro, the Hero 5 and Hero 5 Session both have image stabilization and the video quality is the same.
Q: Is the hero 5 Session waterproof?
A: yes. you can swim with it, leave it out in the rain, or even float it in the toilet if you like. max depth is rated at 33feet
Q: silly question but does this have a build in microphone
A: Yes it does. It is on one of the corners over the lens. It picks up great audio.
Q: can the camera use an external battery pack via USB connection to extend operating time?
A: Only to charge but it can not be used while charging.
Q: what's the highest capacity size it takes for SD card?
A: 128GB in capacity for all session cameras. If using "4K" setting, you will need a card with a "U3" rating.
Q: Which would be the best go pro to mount on a motorcycle?
A: I have used GoPro 5 sessions. I think this is a good one to mount on motorcycle. Is small and easy to mount. I like to use my phone to control it too. We use for business use. We custom Ducati, and test ride them. Daway
Q: How long does the battery last doing video?
A: A long time. Longer that my full size GoPros. Near 2:00
