GoPro HERO13 Black Creator Edition

GoPro HERO13 Black Creator Edition

The HERO13 Black Creator Edition is an all-in-one powerhouse for content creators, making vlogging, filming and livestreaming easier than ever before.

At the heart of the Creator Edition is the HERO13 Black with its outstanding 5.3K60 video and award-winning HyperSmooth 6.0 video stabilization. It comes with a versatile battery grip that offers more than 5 hours of recording time in 4K per charge (1) and allows you to conveniently control the camera with the integrated buttons during long recordings.

The complete system also includes a directional microphone that reduces ambient noise, Bluetooth audio options for using a wireless microphone, an LED light, a magnetic lock mount that allows you to replace the battery even faster, and multiple options for transferring your recordings - for example wirelessly, wired or via your SD card. (2)

The camera is also compatible with the HB-Series lenses (2), which allow you to further expand your shooting options. They enable ultra-wide angles of view, cinema-quality anamorphic shots, even better close focus and cool motion blur effects with neutral density filters.

Designed for the rugged and waterproof HERO13 Black

The heart of the HERO13 Black Creator Edition is the HERO13 Black - the world's most versatile camera. The HERO13 Black delivers amazing image quality and legendary durability to withstand mud, snow and water (to a depth of 10 meters). (7) You can also use the HERO13 Black with GoPro mounts to attach the camera to your body, helmet or other gear and capture shots with unique perspectives.

Compatible with HB-Series Lenses (2)

HB-Series lenses can be attached to your camera in place of the standard lens to capture a variety of specialty shots. The Lens Mod Ultra Wide is the ultimate POV lens for action scenes and breathtaking landscape shots. The Lens Mod Macro creates impressive, super-detailed close-ups. With the neutral density filters, you can optimally adjust your shots to the lighting conditions and achieve professional results in no time at all. And with the Lens Mod Anamorphic, you can take cinematic shots in cinema format. Your GoPro automatically recognizes which lens or filter you attach and adjusts the settings accordingly.

3K video

5.3K video delivers stunning image quality with 91% higher resolution than 4K and an incredible 665% more than 1080p. The HERO13 Black captures action shots with crisp detail and the highest image quality. No matter the lens, every shot looks fantastic. With 5.3K video, you also have the option to use the GoPro Quik app to extract stunning still images up to 24.7MP from your videos.

Continuous Slo-Mo

Slo-Mo is slower than ever with HERO13 Black: now you can capture the action in your video clips at up to 13x slower speeds. And in short Slo-Mo clips with 4x slower speed and the highest resolution of 5.3K, you can capture even the tiniest details that you could never see with the naked eye.

Award-winning HyperSmooth 6.0 stabilization

HyperSmooth 6.0 sets a new standard for in-camera video stabilization, delivering incredibly smooth footage no matter how rough the going gets. HyperSmooth AutoBoost enables maximum stabilized footage by seamlessly adapting the image to your speed and movement.

Integrated 360° Horizon Lock

With the digital Linear Lens + Horizon Lock, the HERO13 Black keeps the horizon stable and straight, even when the camera rotates a full 360° during shooting. (4) In combination with the HyperSmooth video stabilization, the horizon lock gives your recordings the optimally stabilized look of professional film productions.

All-day recording + improved Enduro battery

The HERO13 Black Creator Edition combines the Enduro battery of the HERO13 Black with the battery power of the Volta grip. This gives you a total of 6,800 mAh of battery capacity. That's more than 5 hours of continuous recording time in 4K or more than 4.5 hours of recording time in 5.3K30 (1) (the highest resolution) - enough for a full day of video clips. Plus, the improved Enduro battery significantly boosts camera performance in cold weather, so you can reliably capture spectacular ski and snowboard videos or just your winter adventures.

One-handed control + remote control

With the integrated camera buttons on the handle, you can turn your camera on and off, start and stop recording, change modes and more with one hand. You can even detach the handle from the camera and use it as a remote control to control your camera from up to 30 meters away. (7)

Easily expandable

With the Media Mod, you can add additional equipment to your HERO13 Black Creator Edition to tell your stories. It features a standard 3.5mm microphone port for an external microphone, an HDMI output for playback on external monitors and two accessory shoes for lights, LCD displays or other accessories.

Powerful LED lighting

With the Light Mod of the HERO13 Black Creator Edition, you can bathe every scene and every adventure in soft, even light. It has four brightness levels (up to 200 lumens) as well as an overdrive and strobe mode and can also be used as a handy stand light with GoPro mounts.

Integrated tripod

The HERO13 Black Creator Edition's Volta grip allows you to hold and aim your camera comfortably, and the integrated tripod legs, which can be folded out at any time, allow you to take stationary and hands-free shots. The movable mounting eyes allow you to flexibly rotate and tilt the camera so that you can always find the perfect shooting angle.

Flexible mounting

With the included mount with magnetic lock, you can attach and detach your GoPro from the Volta handle even more quickly and easily. Magnets guide your camera into the right position - all you have to do is snap it into place. This is particularly practical if you want to quickly switch between different mounts with your camera. With the handle's retractable eyelets, you can easily attach your Creator Edition to GoPro backpack straps to capture POV footage of your travels. It can also be used with other GoPro mounts and is easily compatible with standard tripods and other camera accessories thanks to the 1/4-20 thread.

HLG HDR video

The HERO13 Black takes image quality to the next level with the ability to shoot in HLG (Hybrid Log Gamma), a standard HDR format used by professionals for 5.3K and 4K video in 10-bit and Rec. 2100 color spaces. This advanced feature requires a compatible display and media player for playback. Of course, you can still record videos in HDR without HLG if you want to play back the recordings on standard displays and media players.

Widescreen, portrait and full-frame recordings

With the powerful 1/1.9" image sensor of the HERO13 Black, you have even more options. Choose between widescreen shooting (16:9 aspect ratio) for full-screen playback on a TV or vertical video (9:16 aspect ratio) for social media posts. For maximum versatility, the full-frame option (8:7 aspect ratio) captures a 156° field of view that you can later crop to widescreen or portrait.

10-bit color

+ log encoding

With HERO13 Black, you can choose between standard 10-bit color video or log encoding with 10-bit and GP-Log. With 10-bit color, over 1 billion colors can be displayed - offering improved color depth and smoother gradations to make your videos look even more realistic. Advanced users can use GP-Log to capture more detailed footage and make the necessary image corrections in post-production (a look-up table (LUT) is provided).

Timecode Sync

Advanced users using multiple HERO13 Black cameras can now synchronize their cameras with an accurate timecode, making it much easier to post-produce footage from multiple cameras. This works with Final Cut Pro, Adobe Premiere and other editing programs - for even more efficient post-production.

27 MP photos and 24.7 MP stills

The HERO13 Black shoots single, interval, continuous and night photos at 27 MP. This allows you to take standard shots, quick action shots and night shots in low light conditions. With the GoPro Quik app, you can also extract stunning 24.7 MP photos of your favorite shots from your videos.

Bluetooth audio connectivity

With Bluetooth audio, you can connect the HERO13 Black wirelessly to compatible devices. A wireless microphone improves audio recording for scene descriptions or interviews. Or connect your GoPro to your wireless earbuds so it can receive your voice commands even when it's in a noisy environment or out of earshot. You can also receive alerts from the camera through your earphones so you know if it has received your command and is performing the way you want it to.

Improved audio recording

The HERO13 Black Creator Edition Media Mod has a 3.5 mm microphone port that allows you to connect a wired microphone. It also has an integrated directional microphone for even better voice recordings. You can set the microphone to record mainly the sound in front of the camera when you are recording interviews or performances, for example, or the sound behind the camera when you are commenting on the action in front of you. There is also a setting that allows you to focus on both equally. Also included is a removable foam windscreen that suppresses gusts of up to 32 km/h.

Audio tuning

Audio tuning allows you to better match the sound recording to the image. You can choose between a balanced, lifelike sound that is suitable for most recordings and the voice setting, which makes voices sound clearer while keeping ambient noise in the background.

QuikCapture - now even faster

QuikCapture is the fastest and easiest way to start recording as soon as you switch on the HERO13 Black. All you need to do is press the shutter button. Plus, you can now put your camera to sleep without turning it off completely - so it's ready for the next shot even faster. The perfect way to always be ready for action shots.

GPS and measurement data stickers

GPS automatically records telemetry data, which you can display as animated graphics in your video using the GoPro Quik app. This allows you to visually display speed, distance, terrain, altitude and G-force, giving your videos an absolutely professional look.

Front + rear LCD display

Find the perfect perspective with the front or rear LCD display. Record scenes in front of you with the large touchscreen on the back. For vlogging and selfies, turn the camera around and take your shots with the display on the front.

More options for presets

Define your own presets in which you record the options for your preferred activities - including resolution, frame rate and lens. You can then call them up conveniently with just a few taps. To quickly find them again, you can give your presets individual names either directly in the camera or in the GoPro Quik app.

Highlight videos are automatically sent to your phone (2)

Simply connect your GoPro to charge while it is connected to your home Wi-Fi. While it charges, your footage is automatically uploaded to the cloud and then turned into a highlight video with matching music and great effects. The videos are automatically sent to your smartphone so you can share them quickly and easily. (2)

Easy editing with the GoPro Quik app

The GoPro Quik app includes a wealth of easy-to-use tools to help you edit your footage like a pro. You can customize the highlight videos automatically created by the app or create your own videos from scratch. You can also flexibly change digital lenses after recording, zoom in on the best parts of your video and create high-resolution sections of the action while editing out the rest.

Faster transfer + unlimited cloud storage (2)

Transferring content from your camera to your smartphone is now even easier and faster. The HERO13 Black uses Wi-Fi 6 technology for faster and more reliable transfer to your smartphone and to the cloud. To transfer your content to a computer, you can use a lightning-fast USB cable connection5 or the SD card. If you use the convenient auto-upload function, you also benefit from unlimited cloud storage. (1) Simply plug in your camera to charge while it's connected to your home Wi-Fi and the camera will do the rest.

Videos and photos with night effects

The HERO13 Black has three new time-lapse and photo modes that let you get creative after dark. Startrails mode uses the Earth's rotation and stars to capture beautiful light trails in the night sky. With "Light Painting" you can create brilliant brushstroke effects with moving lights. "Auto light trails" records impressive light trails with night-time traffic.

Power tools

The power tools integrated in the camera make every shot a success. HindSight captures the scene up to 30 seconds before you start shooting - just in case you press the shutter button too late. With scheduled recordings, you can set your GoPro to switch on and record automatically up to 24 hours in advance. If you set a recording duration, you can easily record video clips from 15 seconds to 3 hours long. The interval photo function takes photos at fixed intervals while you concentrate on your activities.

Simple or professional operating functions

You can choose between convenient point-and-shoot functions or full camera control. With the simple control functions, all you have to do is select the desired image section and press the shutter button to achieve amazing results. The pro controls give you the ability to really change all modes and functions.

Webcam + Livestreaming

Use HERO13 Black as an extremely versatile webcam or livestream your next activity as a vlog with smooth HyperSmooth video stabilization and super-sharp resolution.
