The GoPro HERO13 Black features the same 8:7 Aspect Ratio 1/1.9” sensor that is found in the HERO12 Black. The sensor can be cropped into vertical 9:16, widescreen 16:9, traditional 4:3 or full-frame 8:7 aspect ratios. This is available across all video resolutions as well as TimeWarp, Time Lapse, Night Lapse, and all Night Effects modes.

The HERO13 Black can capture High Dynamic Range (HDR) Photo and Video. Video can be captured in 5.3K up to 60p and 4K in 10-bit. You can also capture 4K at up to 120fps and 2.7k at up to 240fps. This is unchanged from the HERO12 Black.

There is also a Burst Slo-Mo mode that allows you to capture 720p at 400fps.

Photos can be captured as 27 megapixels and you can also take frame grabs from the video at 24.7 megapixels.

There is also a Vertical Capture mode, even when the camera is used horizontally, it will capture 9:16 video because of the camera’s unique 8:7 aspect ratio sensor.

Interval Photo joins a suite of Power Tools designed to help you capture video and photos in unique ways. Interval Photo enables photo capture at fixed intervals, from every 0.5 seconds all the way up to every 120 seconds.

There are also Night Effects with Still Images, allowing you to capture Light Painting, Vehicle Light Trails, and Star Trails.

When GoPro announced the HERO12 Black they also introduced a new (optional) Max Lens Mod 2.0 accessory, enabling the HERO12 Black to achieve the market’s widest 177° field of view at up to 4K 60p.

HyperSmooth 6.0

HyperSmooth 6.0 features a next-generation AutoBoost that automatically boosts video stabilization as needed while maintaining the smallest cropping margin possible. HyperSmooth 6.0 also enables horizon-leveling even with full 360° camera rotation in the Linear + Horizon Lock digital lens or in all lens settings when using the Max Lens Mod 2.0 accessory.

According to GoPro, HyperSmooth 6.0 can analyze your footage up to 4x faster than HyperSmooth 5.0.

Horizon Lock is very impressive because when it is activated, it doesn’t matter if the camera goes upside down or spins 360 degrees, the horizon will stay level.

GP-LOG + available LUTs

There is a LOG recording mode with downloadable LUTs that you can use.

Currently, the only LUT available is GPLOG_Auto_WB.cube.

Wireless Bluetooth audio support

The HERO13 Black features wireless Bluetooth audio support for Apple AirPods and other Bluetooth audio devices such as earbuds, headphones and microphones. This is handy for vlogging, scene narration and issuing voice commands to control your HERO13 Black from a distance.
