Best value kit for non-stop shooting
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The latest bundle from GoPro is the GoPro HERO13 Black Extended Power Bundle that includes the HERO13 camera, 3 Enduro batteries with dual battery charger, curved adhesive mount, mounting buckle, 64GB SanDisk microSD card, 2 USB C cables for data transfer and battery charging. Comparing with the previous gen HERO12, the HERO13 has some design changes and added features to accommodate the new mount option, battery and the add-on lenses. The setup is very simple. Download the GoPro Quik app and it will guide you with options. Make sure you download and update to the latest firmware for best experience. For an action camera, the build quality is amazing and is enclosed in a rugged case that can withstand any adventure conditions. HERO13 captures the action with detail in 5.3K resolution and stunning photos up to 27.4MP from the recorded video using the Quik app. This camera also works with HB-Series interchange lenses which expand your shooting possibilities. HERO13 comes with HyperSmooth 6.0 stabilization that provides improved image stabilization over the previous model and ensures your video is smooth irrespective of the condition and reduces image cropping. The video recording has various shooting options like slow motions, HDR, widescreen, vertical, full screen, etc. The rugged camera can be used in any condition and withstand up to depths of 33ft/10m in water. If you want to use it for diving, then you might need to buy additional accessories to support that. The new design of HERO13 also gives you more versatile mounting options. The magnetic latch offers quick swapping between different mounts. GoPro supports mounts for various activity, including support for tripods and standard camera accessories. The camera is equipped with GPS which captures additional telemetry data that can be overlapped on your videos using the Quik app. If you have multiple HERO13 cameras, you can wireless synchronize the recordings for multi-camera view using the camera timecode. Coming to the battery, the HERO13 comes with a new design and higher capacity battery for efficiency and longer runtimes. GoPro rates the new battery at 2.5 hours of continuous recording at 1080p, although this battery is not compatible with previous models. This bundle comes with 3 batteries and a dual charger, which charges the battery sequentially. This is a game changer as it significantly increases the shooting time on the go. The camera is equipped with Wi-Fi 6 which means you can transfer to your phone fasters. There is also a GoPro subscription if you would like automatic cloud backup and access it from anywhere. I wish there are more options for cloud backup since everyone pretty much has one of the cloud subscription these days. Overall, this is a great bundle for someone looking for a complete kit to shot travel, action/adventure, all day content.

Amazing Quality and Capture
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was excited to get this Go Pro Hero 13 to test out and see how much has evolved sinch I have a GoPro Hero 5 Black. First off, this package is an amazing bundle. It was enough power and storage right form the start. Everything just works. I had zero need for anything else except the gimbal and holders for the camera. Big things I love right from the start: 5.3K video resolution. The light handling sensor is amazing. Captures so much better in the low light times. Not dark and grainy, but actually light and visible. The stabilization is just perfection and seems like they have got rid of that weird Jitter from back in day. You can change the aspect ratios on the go, and you have a front facing LCD! It also has great Bluetooth connectivity. The new batteries last along time which i noticed just almost 2 hours and 10 mins on one full charge. Now I did go and get a few accessories such as the Smart Motion BLUR ND Filter for that action cinematic look and they are water resistant. I wanted these for skiing and fishing videos. They automatically trigger the camera when attached to the right mode. So this GoPro has alot of smart features built into to auto correct to the situation for the best shot for the user. That left me very impressed. Ill end on, in basic modes with just opening and going, you might notice light transition to day night to light might trigger a slow light peek through effect. The exposure control does handle this rather well, but just ensure you are in the mode that is best suited for what ever situation to get the best stabilized picture.

Improvements and accessories make the difference
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The GoPro - HERO13 Black Extended Power Bundle – Black has been upgraded with a bunch of updates and new accessories to produce an action camera that can fulfill all video and photographic production needs. It is a small, powerful camera with features and software that everyone will appreciate, from beginners to professionals. The video and photo image quality is excellent, with sharp 5.3K video, HDR support, and very smooth impressive image stabilization. GoPro restored the GPS on the Hero 13 Black and enhanced and upgraded the camera to be more competitive on the market. GoPro added new burst slow-motion settings, Wi-Fi 6 for faster uploads, interchangeable lens options to expand possibilities, enhanced battery life, and an update to the camera's Quick Capture feature. Quick Capture turns the camera on and starts recording with a single press of the Record button. When you press it again, the camera will stop the recording and shut the camera off. GoPro offers several different lenses to expand GoPro’s versatility. When I simply twist the lens on, the camera automatically recognizes which lens it is, and then sets the camera up for use by unlocking features for that particular lens, such as offering focus peaking for the macro lens. Another addition is the magnetic latch mount, which now provides three ways to mount my GoPro. I can use the flip-down fingers, the 1/4- 20 tripod threads or the magnetic latch mount. The GoPro has a big useful front-facing screen. The menu system is simple, fast, and efficient. The one negative I found was the GoPro does not perform that well in low light. The GoPro - HERO13 Black Extended Power Bundle – Black is the perfect camera for a nature trip.

The gold standard in action cameras
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you want an action camera bundle that can go all day, this is what you need! The GoPro HERO13 Black is definitely an upgrade from previous versions. GPS is now built in. Camera stabilization is amazing. Videos of off roading in my Jeep are now much smoother than previous versions. What used to be a jumbles blurry vid on a previous camera is now at least watchable. You can purchase lesn packs to change the style of lens you're using. If you're new to action cameras, and particularly GoPro, there is a bit of a learning curve. Take your time to familiarize yourself with all the features. There's 3 ways to mount the new GoPro- The standard mount go pro has used for years. A tripod screw mounting hole, and now a magnet mount. I haven't tried the magnet mount as it's not rated for high speed, high vibration. Another great feature is magnetic pass through charging. You can use an external power source like a battery bank to keep your camera charged for longer periods without opening the battery door. Great for when you're in wet environments for a long time. Keeps your GoPro water tight. A con I've found, and it doesn't seem like GoPro has updated is that in dim light/twilight it's not the best camera. Neither is it great for night time, even with good offroad lighting. Additionally, it does get hot, not quite as hot as previous versions. In my opinion this may be an issue in 95+ degree summer temps. Time will tell. Definitely recommend it!

They keep getting better and better!
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.GoPro is pretty much the standard bearer for action cameras. They continue to innovate with more and more features and camera settings. I was happy to see some of the improvements and feature sets on the new GoPro Hero 13 Black. For me I love that there are a ton of available accessories and that continues to grow in numbers and functionality. I was really excited to see the optional GoPro snap on lenses and filters. There are also a plethora of third party accessories. All of the mounting accessories that I had for my old GoPro Hero are still compatible. I've got suction cup mounts for car action videos and a telescoping selfie/tripod stick. I still ride my upright bike so the handlebar mount is useful and when I'm on my tadpole recumbent bike I use the helmet and handlebar mounts for different views during my video captured rides. It's also waterproof up to 30 feet deep but deeper you will need to use a waterproof housing. Fortunately my older GoPro housing fits the Hero 13. There are books out there that tell you how to get the most out of the GoPro cameras but if you are planning on getting one make sure it covers the GoPro Hero 13 Black since this camera has a ton of new features. I'm still going through Youtube videos on how to use this amazing camera. One of the newer features is burst video mode for great clips. While they are short they do produce some really good effects. Slow motion settings can give you really smooth videos when you set to higher frame rate. Time lapse has been available for a long time and several years ago I used it to record our road trip on historic Route 66 with great results. HDR color gets you vibrant colors on your videos and stills. I've done a few videos of my dogs playing in the yard and chasing squirrels and it's fun to see the results while playing with different settings. They took GPS out of the 12 and some of the 10's and 11's but added it back in the 13. I haven't really used the feature but I've seen some results with overlays using the GPS data. I can see that on while track racing, or bike rides and hiking trips. Voice control is especially useful. It's nice to be able to take stills and start and stop videos. There is a list of available commands when you go into the settings and enable voice control. Funny thing is while watching a how to use video on Youtube my GoPro was reacting to commands that the tutorial creator was giving. I'm going to use this feature like crazy. GoPr3o Quik App (free version but subscription necessary if you want more powerful software features). You can edit videos on your phone or tablet with the Quick App but also online on your PC. Speaking of the phone app... you can also have some control of the Hero 13 on your phone and I especially like the video preview on the phone. This comes in real handy when using mounts outside of your car. You can fine tune the lens view and tweak a tilt or swivel to get the right field of view. I don't know what they could add to the next model but no doubt AI will be included since everything seems to be going that way. A solid buy if you are looking for a great, feature packed action camera.

Tiny but packs power, extra power for longer runs
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The GoPro Hero continues to grow in strength and usability; the latest changes and updates looks like it is headed more towards an AI direction and increased mobility availability options without the need for a dedicated machine. Through the use of “Smart Lenses” for auto detection anytime a lens or filter is swapped, the unit detects and applies the settings to itself accordingly. The unit does come with a Wide-Angle Macro Lens with auto focus. Video stability continues to get better as hardware continues to develop and software changes. As of right now, this tiny toy supports a resolution of just over 5K. The added GPS overlay give you real-time location recording during use. The built-in WiFi is in the current iteration for gen 6 WiFi to allow faster transfers between device to mobile or dedicated system (if utilized). The mounting options is always one of the items most users as well as myself struggle with. In this case, they’ve found a way to make it easier to changeover or swap to the current activity you’re invested in based on your needs and gear. Speaking of activities, this is water proof also as long as you have all of the openings and covers placed appropriately according to the specs. Not something I toy around with as I tend to stick the water and power do not mix rule set while limiting the amounts of rain exposure. Battery seems to last ~3 hours per battery. Setting up the GoPro is easily done through their app to include attaching the included wrist lanyard. One final note for anyone that purchases this, there is an initial update required prior to first use and may take a little extra time depending on the SD Card format.
