GoPro Announces Two New Cameras: The RM1,999 HERO13 Black and the RM999 HERO

Kuala Lumpur, 10September 2024 – GoPro (NASDAQ: GPRO) announced two new GoPro cameras: the top-of-the-line RM1,999 HERO13 Black with its HB-Series Lenses, and the smallest, simplest 4K camera, the RM999 HERO. Each camera offers unique new features that build upon GoPro-patented, customer-favorite technologies.

“This year’s two new GoPro cameras are inspired by and built for the GoPro Community,” says GoPro Founder and CEO Nicholas Woodman. “HERO13 Black features four new interchangeable lens mods that HERO13 automatically detects and adjusts its settings for, magnetic latch mounting, GPS, and a more powerful battery that provides longer runtimes and improved thermal performance. And then there’s HERO, the smallest, lightest 4K GoPro ever with a screen that will appeal to new and experienced users with its rugged, ultralight design and impressive 4K image quality.”

HERO13 Black: Exceptional Flagship Performance

HERO13 Black is a powerful combination of leading-edge tech and endless creative possibilities. Beyond best-in-class 5.3K 60 frames per second video, Emmy® Award-winning HyperSmooth stabilization, and core GoPro characteristics, HERO13 Black features new:

Incredible 13x Burst Slo-Mo – Captures up to 400 frames per second at HD-quality 720p video, as well as 5.3K at 120 frames per second and 900p at 360 frames per second video.
Redesigned 10% Larger Capacity, More Power Efficient Enduro Battery – Extends runtimes in all weather conditions.
Snap and Go Magnetic Latch Mounting – Joins built-in mounting fingers and 1/4-20 mounting threads for three ways to mount HERO13 Black.
Faster WiFi 6 Technology – For up to 40% quicker content transfer speeds.
Professional-Level Hybrid Log Gamma (HLG) HDR Video – Broadcast-standard 10bit and Rec. 2100 color space and a wider color gamut than HDR alone.
More Customizable Audio Tuning – Choose balanced true-to-life sound or a Voice setting that enhances vocal clarity, while also preserving ambient background sounds.
GPS + Performance Stickers – Track speed, path, terrain, altitude and g-force, and help with geotagging in third party media management apps.
Plus, more custom preset options, improved QuikCapture and more.

HERO13 Black (RM1,999) customers can choose between the standalone camera, the HERO13 Black Creator Edition (RM3,199) complete with the Volta Power Grip, Media Mod and Light Mod, or activity-optimized HERO13 Black Accessory Bundles exclusive to GoPro.com and select retailers around Malaysia. Preorder shipping and global retail on-shelf availability will begin on September 10.

HB-Series Lenses: The Ultimate Creative Collection

HERO13 Black customers can level up their creative game by adding the innovative, new HERO Black (HB)-Series Lenses to their cart. Each lens is automatically detected by HERO13 Black to provide optimal settings options based on the lens type and the environment.

The four HB-Series Lenses are the only lenses compatible with GoPro-patented HyperSmooth stabilization and are waterproof and scratch resistant with hydrophobic coatings.

Ultra Wide Lens Mod (RM579): Transforms HERO13 Black into the ultimate POV camera by capturing more in every shot with a 177° field of view and new 1:1 aspect ratio, giving you more field of view and the freedom to crop your footage to widescreen 16:9 or vertical 9:16 shots— no matter how the camera is mounted. And, this lens maximizes HyperSmooth performance for unbreakable 360° Horizon Lock in-camera video stabilization up to 4K60 resolution.
Macro Lens Mod (RM759): Expand creative possibilities with variable focus on objects in the distance and objects that can be up to 4x closer than the standard GoPro lens. The variable focus ring lets you manually adjust the focus distance from as close as 4.3in (11cm).
Anamorphic Lens Mod: Capture ultra wide-angle, artistic footage with less distortion than traditional wide-angle perspectives in a dramatic 21:9 aspect ratio—just like you see in feature films. Cinematic lens flares add to the character of your footage, while in-camera “de-squeezing” makes it easy to capture, review and edit anamorphic content without intensive post-production workflows.
ND Filter 4-Pack (RM409): Easily create cinematic motion blur in your shots with HB-Series neutral density (ND) filters in ND4 / ND8 / ND16 / ND32. Simply attach a filter and your HERO13 Black automatically detects it, toggles into Auto Cinematic video mode, and dials in the best settings based on your environment.

Ultra Wide Lens Mod, Macro Lens Mod and the ND Filter 4-Pack are sold separately from HERO13 Black and are now available for preorder at GoPro.com and select retailers around Malaysia. Preorder shipping and global retail on-shelf availability will begin on September 10. Anamorphic Lens Mod will be available in 2025.

Capture Longer with Redesigned Power Solutions

A 10% larger capacity 1900mAh Enduro battery combines with improved power efficiency and a redesigned battery enclosure to deliver longer runtimes in all conditions. HERO13 Black provides 1.5 hours of continuous recording in the highest resolution 4K30 and 5.3K30 settings, plus over 2.5 hours of continuous recording at HD-quality 1080p30.

Level up to all-weather power by adding the Contacto Magnetic Door and Power Cable Kit (RM469). This power extension accessory magnetically attaches to a specially designed side door for HERO13 Black that allows for a quick, simple and weatherproof way to connect an external power source.

More Ways to Mount

New Magnetic Latch (RM149) and Ball Joint Mounts (RM229) introduce the quickest way to move HERO13 Black between various mounts. They are compatible with all existing GoPro mounts and use a quick dual-latch system to secure your camera. Simply pinch to release and swap mounts or flip your camera 180° to change up the perspective.

HERO13 Black customers can also mount their camera using built-in mounting fingers for the most secure, low-profile mounting option and 1/4-20 mounting threads to be used with tripods and standard professional camera accessories.
