High Dynamic Range Video plus Photo: HERO12 Black takes its best-in-class image quality to the next level with HDR for both videos (5.3K and 4K) and photos. Great in environments with both shadows and bright light, HDR captures the subtle details of the scene that might typically blend into the darkness of shadows or disappear in the bright spots of your shot. The result is dynamic footage with true-to-life color and precision.
Unbelieveable Image Quality: With 5.3K video that gives you 91% more resolution than 4K and an incredible 665% more than 1080p, HERO12 Black captures the action with crisp detail and cinematic image quality with High Dynamic Range (HDR) while also taking 27MP photos. You can also grab stunning photos up to 24.7MP of your favorite shots from your videos using the GoPro Quik app.
Emmy Award- Winning HyperSmooth 6.0 Stabilization: HyperSmooth continues to set the bar for insanely smooth footage and has the hardware to back it up—a 2021 Emmy for In-Camera Sensor and Software Stabilization. HERO12 Black makes it even better by maximizing HyperSmooth AutoBoost performance with more stabilization while still delivering less image cropping. Bike, skate, ski, chase your kids through the park or get awesome pet POV shots—even the shakiest footage comes out silky smooth.
Rugged plus Waterproof to 33ft (10m): Completely waterproof and as tough as ever, HERO12 Black is ready to capture the fun on any adventure. Its legendary durability can take a beating and keep going, whether you’re ripping through mud, snow or water (down to 33ft/10m). A water-repelling lens cover even helps eliminate lens flare and other artifacts to make your photos and videos even more stunning.

Title: Next-level action camera – sharp, stable, and super versatile!
Review: The HERO12 Black is everything you’d expect from GoPro and more. The 5.3K video is stunningly crisp, even in fast action or low light, and the stabilization is buttery smooth. Photos are sharp, with great color and dynamic range thanks to HDR. I love the improved battery life and the ability to live stream or use it as a webcam – super handy for creators. It’s rugged, waterproof, and ready for any adventure. Whether you’re surfing, hiking, or vlogging, this camera delivers big time!

Title: Great GoPro works very well for me
Review: I come from a gopro hero 301 and its fantastic, well.. i should say the battery it’s not like i thoughtin 4k 30fps lasts about 1 hour of recording but 60fps reduces tu 30-40 minutos and it’s starting to get warm very warm, but the quality its great i love the stabilization and the quality of the video, normally i record in 5.3k 30fps Angular for record my trips, I have been trying the hyperview but I think it is for other uses, maybe think about buying the lens 2.0 mod to have the superview with horizon lock, which is a great feature, the hdr from the standar video its looks the same thing ( maybe if you recording with the hdr inside your car and recording in the front maybe the sky looks better ) but one solution what i found its connect a powerbank (anker) and its works! for long trips in my bike or just sequence videos. Oh i forget the automatic upload to the cloud of gopro makes the camera too hot, i think about it and maybe upload manually in browser…—update—- 2024-02-19The camera is fantastic, it has excellent recording and stabilization, I use it on my bicycle on the handlebarsI had a problem with heating, I could only last about 45 minutes recording at 4k 60fps, now what I did was buy a battery cover that has a hole in the charger, and I connected an Anker 10k portable battery, and that’s how I solved the problem of the warming up, and I can record up to 5 hours with that battery.Also with the upload to the cloud, I had problems connecting to my new ax55 archer router, I detected that it was the 160Mhz frequency that created a conflict and did not allow me to connect, what I did was lower the router to 80Mhz and it started to upload, and the heating is the same there is no way, just take out the battery and connect it there if it remains normal, but regarding the wifi I activated the 160Mhz again and it remained connected and the upload finished, I have not yet tried again to see if it goes back up without making that change in the router.

Title: Great Camera with One Flaw
Review: Much of the GoPro is first class. The features are numerous and the most common are easy to get to. I’m impressed with how the Quik phone app works so far. Given that you mount the thing in ways that make it hard to get to, the voice commands and use of the Quik app to control many functions is super useful.Now to the flaw: The charging is brain-dead! This is a serious problem though not fatal. The camera needs a 2 amp power supply that is NOT included. My Macbook supply does not have the needed rating so the GoPro will not charge from it. One every other USB C device I have, the charging on a weak power supply (lump) is just slower–where the GoPro simply refuses to charge! This means you need to carry around a special lump for it! I have USB ports in my car but none will work. This is a flaw that I hope they solve in the future since there is no reason a powered off device cannot charge from a low amperage (low wattage) supply, it will just charge slower.This high amperage (wattage) charging means the device is hot to the touch when charging. It uses a lot of power so it is also hot when running. There are ways to reduce the power it uses while running and I won’t fault them for this, some things just take the juice. Given that the batteries can be swapped there seems no reason to force a fast charge. There is no reasonable excuse for NOT CHARGING slower on an under-powered lump, cmon GoPro!

Title: Hot Camera. Literally.
Review: This is my first GoPro. Great little camera, but my it runs hot, and it can burn through batteries. As for my needs, the camera is nigh perfect. I mount it with a cheap sucker mount to the glass roof of my Model Y and use it to take videos that include the infotainment panel and the road ahead. The short battery life isn’t a factor, as I simply removed the battery cover and provide power from the car via its usb-c port.I used it to make 30fps and 2fps (time-lapse) movies, both of which it does well.I rarely use the online cloud service, because the videos I make have little longterm value to me. Overall I found uploading to be a very slow process, but don’t know if the chokepoint was my own ISP or GoPro’s service.The camera is expensive, and isn’t perfect, but I’d consider buying it again if I needed another.

Title: Great for Traveling and Action Sports
Review: Extremely portable and easy to use. It can be charged via USB-C and has enough battery life to last the entire day. Batteries can be easily changed out, and it is durable. It performs reasonably well in low light, and the built-in mic is good enough to capture audible dialogue in crowded places.

Review: I film wildlife using Canon cameras, shooting 4 K. So when this GoPro came out with a better slimmer max lens, enabling it to upgrade from previous versions (I have two Hero 9s) using the old max lens, to top out film resolution at 2.7K, I thought I’d give it a try. I wanted to provide that more immersive experience using 4K with all cameras used to create one film. And it works well…buy the max lens…it does a great job of horizontal levelling so you can do anything with the camera and the horizon, with the max lens (2.0) will keep your viewers watching, without motion sickness being the outcome.

Review: It’s super good, just one down side it overheats a bit on high fps so it takes some tweaking in the settings to record long videos, other than that i love it works perfectly
