- 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): 3264 x 2448 (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.)
- 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.)
- Image File Format(s): JPEG (Standardized software format(s) of storing digital images. The type of format chosen for capturing and compressing the image can determine quality, level of detail, and storage space required.)
- Focus
- Focus Modes: Focus free
- Display
- Aspect Ratio: 16:9 (The measurement of the width of a screen compared to the height of a screen, expressed as a ratio.)
- Touch Screen: true (Touch-screen devices make navigating more intuitive. Using a touch-screen display, you can do things such as tap to select, hold and drag to move items, swipe to scroll, and pinch to zoom.)
- Video
- Maximum Video Frame Rate: Up to 60 fps (The maximum frequency at which consecutive images can be captured by a video recording device.)
- Compatibility
- Tripod/Monopod Mountable: true (A support function that allows the device to be mounted to monopods and tripods for leveling and stability.)
- Memory Card Compatibility: microSD (The type of memory card(s) recommended for use with the product.)
- Features
- Action Camera: true
- Night Recording: true (The ability to capture and record video in low-light conditions, typically via infrared light or intensifier tubes that amplify existing light to illuminate the scene.)
- Wind Noise Reduction: true (If you take a lot of outside videos, in windy conditions, you'll need to make sure you have wind noise reduction on your camcorder. It does just what it says it does, cuts down the noise of the wind as it hits the microphone.)
- Connectivity
- Output(s): HDMI, USB 2.0
- Microphone Type: Wind noise reduction; Dual mic system; Mono
- Microphone Input: false (The device features an input for connecting an external microphone.)
- Power
- Battery Size: Other (The battery size required for operation.)
- Included
- Batteries Included: true (Indicates whether the product comes with the required batteries for its operation.)

- GoPro HERO Session
Q: So no display? How do you see what you are filming besides looking thru the lens?
A: I asked myself the same question before I bought mine. The built in WiFi on the Hero Session allows you to very easily pair it with a smart phone. Just download the GoPro app with your phone, turn on the Session's WiFi and you can see what the camera sees within moments.
Q: What is the max video record time with a fresh battery charge and a 64 memory card?
A: Well over 1:30 hours. You will run out of battery first.
A: I just bought mine at a best buy near my place, when I got home and opened it the only extra stuff included were two adhesive mounts and USB cable, the already attached frame and mount that's usually on display, It didn't have the extra frame or two extra mounts that were on the list of "what's included" contacted CSR regarding this to be sure it wasn't a mistake
A: It does come with a flat and curved mount. The curved mount works well with a helmet that is soild like a snowboard helmet if you want to mount it on a road bike helmet that has large vents you will have to buy a different mount. Go pro has many different types if you go to their website you can find many different ones
A: Yes, the gopro hero session videos does have sound.
Q: Can it be used as a dashcam?
A: Yes. It comes with multiple mounting brackets that can be used on the dash.
Q: How do I know when the battery is low, how long I've been filming?
A: There's a display on the top that stays active while filming (showing duration and battery life). If you aren't filming and want to see the battery life remaining, all you have to do is press the button on the back of the cam. The cam will wake up and display info such as battery life, sd capacity and current settings.
Q: What is the difference between the "Hero 4 Session" and this model "Hero Session Super HD"?
A: The camera itself is the exact same, the difference is what comes in the box, Originally when the Session came out it retailed for $400 and you got the standard mount, low profile mount and ball joint mount. when they realized that hardly anyone was willing to pay $400 for it they dropped it down to $200 but to save on costs they excluded the low profile and ball joint mounts. and now instead they are offering those mounts as a separate $40 purchase. so if you can still find the "HERO4 Session" get that one as it has more included. If you don't care about the few extra mounts then it doesn't matter which version you get.
