GoPro Hero 13 Black Review: 27 Things You Should Know!

[@JesseStarrPhoto]

I love that you don’t do sponsored reviews.

[@Menudaesmiberza]

Still struggling with low light. Buying a diving case to your phone seems like a better option.

[@BenjiH11]

Thanks a lot for the detailed review! Always appreciate your take on these things. It's crazy how action cameras keep getting better and offering more features. I went with the Action 4 last year, and I still think it's awesome. I mostly shoot while moving, so I don’t really need anything extra. The battery life has been great for me too, and it never overheated here in the US. From my experience, overheating tests don’t always match real world use. Plus, battery performance depends a lot on how long you’ve been using it. That infrared test you did looked pretty cool though 👍

[@Dcrainmaker]

Thanks, appreicate it!!!

[@MattT72]

15:36 can you show the actual test? It's really hard to believe that a camera with better battery tech won’t turn on. I just watched a video by David Manning where every camera, including the Action 4, turned on fine after being in the freezer for a bit

[@adrian-vdr]

I often think about the overheating issue with modern cameras. I think that the processing power is always pushed to the max, and the current cooling capabilities do not match (when static). I wonder if gopro has starting throttling the bitrate as the camera heats up gradually. (even if the container file says it has a certain bitrate, it can be lower in reality, especially with VBR. A test to uncover this possibility would be interesting.

[@FrederickDunn]

That Macro Lens is the primary reason that I'm nabbing the Hero 13 Black. Thanks for getting this out so fast. All of the other additions aren't that appealing to me. Too bad that lens won't work with the Hero 12 and others. I do like that the camera senses the lens when you put it on. AT 1080p they still stuck to 240fps so, unimproved. OOOhhhh, a heat-sink :) yes please! I like the distinctive change in battery contact location so I can grab one and know it's the right one by feel. Yes to fewer crashes and low overheat issues. I have a Hero10 black that just tanked on day, dead as dead can be. Thanks for this review, I needed more macro samples, but great overall. Ordered!

[@setecastronomy_hc]

It should fit with small modifications. There is small notch on the inside that prevents you to screw it properly on older models, you can just grind that away. You can see that notch on 11:18.

[@nikoulph]

I really wish for a 50mm or 70mm. I'm a bit sick of wide angles videos and pictures...

[@xuchenglin6256]

Just curious, the GoPro is a action cam that specialized in digital stabilization... What's your use case with a Macro?... Any modern mirrorless/DSLR has far superior image quality and you can have it with similar or less money... Just why?

[@joshpit2003]

@@xuchenglin6256 For me, Macro lens also seems like the biggest perk. I use my GoPro mostly for vacation videos, or construction videos. If there was a lens I could use for close up shots (food, my pets, a cool rock, or just some close-ups of what I'm working on) then it would be awesome. I'm not interested in filming with multiple cameras. I just want a plug-and-play option, and GoPro fits the bill since I'm not keen on filming with my phone. From the sample footage I've seen, it looks like I may even be able to get away with having ONLY the macro lens, as it seems to focus much further than the claimed 3 feet.

[@babar69110]

waooooooou never saw a so detailed, pertinent and focused review ! kudos, you make great work !

[@JJR.023]

Any updates I see people returning due to overheating problems after 25min-30min of recording

[@NextLevelCarpentry]

Hey Ray, Fellow KZbinr here, just trying to find the simple answer to a simple question and you seem very knowledgeable about this stuff. Question: If I put a Hero13 on a pole under water will an Android S23+ smartphone be able to pick up the signal and 'screenshare' what the Hero 13 is 'seeing'? Thanks in advance...

[@Dcrainmaker]

Hello! No, unfortunately not. The signal won’t transmit more than about 1cm underwater at best. I can’t think of any creative way to pull that off unfortunately (short of a custom made housing with a really long HDMI cable waterproofed out the side of it…).

[@NextLevelCarpentry]

@@Dcrainmaker thanks for your reply! I watched a few videos showing how to use a piece of coaxial cable for that but they seemed to all be a few years old so I was hoping the newer Hero models had an internal 'broadcasting antenna'.

[@9epsilon]

Best review on the new GoPro13 . Superb. Makes my decision much easier. Thanks for the hard work!

[@winddreamer8.29]

First of all: how cool is your T-shirt!! I had given up at GoPro back at V.7. Totally given up when the gps was taken away. This version may bring me back to GoPro. Thanks for your review. I look forward to your full tutorial.

[@cotochris]

I'm glad I am not the only one tinking the same of the T-shirt! 😊

[@joshpit2003]

Hero 7 was arguably the best "Action cam" they ever made. It's been my only GoPro since, and this Hero13 (with a macro-lens) is the first time I'm considering upgrading.

[@KTMrider696]

I'd hold off until DJI brings the action 5 im sure it going to be better in every way, I've never had any of my action 4 cams freeze even once since I switched from gopro

[@joshpit2003]

@@KTMrider696 ALL 3 of the top-dog action cameras have excellent image quality. I can judge that for myself from the various sample footage. The general GoPro hate is unfounded, as are the DJI shrills. In this case, I'm interested in the one with the integrated macro-lens.

[@KTMrider696]

@@joshpit2003 gopro earned the hate because all the people that use them have had hundreds of hours of footage lost a year because they freeze all the time and you have to take the battery out to fix it, I've owned almost every gopro up until the hero 10 then swapped to dji and insta 360 and I've never had them freeze or over heat or have any problems at all. And since the macro lens isn't compatible with the nd filter at the same time the footage will suck unless it's slow motion anyway

[@tonynancarrow5346]

Definitely the most comprehensive review of the Hero 13 on KZbin at the moment. Well done. 😃 The one feature that might tempt me to upgrade from the Hero 11 Black is the ability to connect to wireless mics like the DJI Mic 2. This would make it possible to do live commentary on a driving video with the GoPro attached to the roof on a magnetic mount like Snap Mount. It would also mean that I wouldn't need the Media Mod any more for better audio in general use. I have seen a video where the sound quality is degraded via Bluetooth to the GoPro compared with internal recording on the DJI Mic 2. Hopefully this can be fixed with a firmware update. The charging cable is redundant to me as the GoPro is usually mounted on the Volta. The magnetic mount is a nice to have when moving the GoPro between the Volta and Chesty. Hopefully it is quite secure in all but extreme conditions. Does it work with the Media Mod? It will be interesting to see a more long term test to see whether the firmware is less buggy than the Hero 11.

[@jezza359]

Do you know whether the new clip on mount will be retro fittable to the Hero12? I bought the Ulanzi one but it is both more bulky and it rattles.

[@shanelbcvinyl]

Thanks for the review! I’m still using the GoPro 10, looking to upgrade. Definitely seems worth it. I wish they would improve GoPro Quick as well. It has a lot of potential as an app based editing tool, but so many flaws it can be frustrating.

[@KentRoads]

could you set the shutter speed and do a low light test on all the action cameras? like set 1/60shutter and 30 FPS should allow better low light

[@Andrea.C8825]

Can u adjust the gain and activate noise reduction of the DJImic2 connected via bluetooth? (With inst360 ace pro I cannot)

[@ARSGoalkeeping]

Hopefully the update is good there's some serious changes needed, the max lens scratches with the slightest movement. 11 and 12 also very susceptible to overheating, much more than the 9 and the battery times have gotten worse.

[@ARSGoalkeeping]

can even see the scartch already on your max lens. This is a huge problem since I use the gopro for action sports and somehow the lens still scratches falling onto grass making it impossible to use a whole feature for action (goalkeeping) @gopro

[@TVNetworld]

please answer my question - what happens if i attach the new macro lens to the hero12? is it working perfectly? cant wait to hear from you thanks

[@Bugside]

He said that new lenses won't fit older cameras due to a new metal tab

[@allewis2]

Wow. The new charging connector is NOT on the GoPro website for sale as of Sept. 5th.....I would definitely pay the $79 for the connector and door with the 13 if offered. That can be a game changer in terms of continuous use of the camera. Thanks for the review. The best one I've seen so far.

[@philippecasteleyn9327]

I made a thread in the Mapillary forum. The questions are : Acquisition rate? GPS? If GPS available, quality of GPS measurements? Accuracy of time stamp? Still rounded at the second or milliseconds are also recorded? Is internal clock synchronized to GPS? Is it recording GPS coordinates when tacking picture or when finishing recording it on the SD?

[@charliethisby]

Can I ask whether the DJI Mic 2 connects via Bluetooth to the Hero 13 yet? Or are you using the media mod? Great summary, thank you!

[@GoPro]

The attention to detail is unmatched 🫳🎤

[@MCMTB]

yeah, y'all need to work on that! attention to detail, tired of gopros and today I found out, I am really switching! waiting for DJI's new camera pshhh!

[@Markchance08]

GOPRO didn't really understood the assignment! you have years to improve, but DJI and Insta 360 worked harder and beat you to your grave! RIP

[@SaltyHooker08]

I make fishing videos but apparently, you don't pay attention about overheating issues! the hero 13 will probably overheat faster than dji and insta 360 new cameras. shame on you gopro! I gave you time to recover and prove that you're the one but, I'm tired! been waiting for years and still nothing. goodbye!

[@atleastthreecharswide]

So this means GoPro 12 ain't gonna get GPS accessory? Why don't you add GPS details from Garmin device. It can control the app, you can just time sync it and populate it later.

[@rutgerdezeeuw]

@GoPro please add an function to lock the shooting mode. Too often I have finished my surf session to find Timelapse’s of it instead of normal movies. Otherwise, I’m a big fan.

[@khanscombe619]

13:19 for full sun events to 95-100°f is shading w/ visor / umbrella help and or mini fan moving air across? Is this Wi-Fi connective to mobile for remote LiveView & control?

[@Dcrainmaker]

A mini fan would be all you need. I did some tests a few years ago (when things were much worse), showing how even in a 104*F super humid scenario, a tiny cheap kids battery powered mini fan, was more than enough to let the GoPro run constantly.

[@nolankroha]

Always look to this guy for the newest releases on GoPro!

[@Dcrainmaker]

Thanks!!!

[@robertosullivan1460]

Do you know if the Rode wireless mics will work like the DJI mics for Bluetooth?

[@robertosullivan1460]

I did reach out to GP and while they couldn’t specifically talk about any one company, they did relay that the Bluetooth microphone option is NOT exclusive to DJI. From that response, I anticipate that my Rodes wireless 2 mics will work without needing the media mod

[@RedMushroom23]

u nailed this review the most compressive review so far keep it up...been a gopro fan due to it's quality no one can beat gopro with that regardless of overheating issue for some

[@Dcrainmaker]

Thanks, appreciate it!

[@allencoin]

What's your editing workflow to incorporate audio from DJI Mic 2? Are you just using the Bluetooth audio directly recorded to the MP4 file, or are you using the audio recorded internally to the DJI Mic 2 and syncing it using the MP4's audio?

[@kamileqone]

Has the built in UVC mode? As webcam working without drivers . Like in DJI Action 4.

[@danielcottmain4035]

I’m interested in time sync so as to have time sync when using multiple different cameras and audio recording devices … is it still upgrading to custom firmware and generating a QR code on a Tentacle Sync Track E and pointing the GoPro at it to sync the time? I was hoping for Bluetooth time sync from ultra sync blue or deity .. I still have a lot to learn

[@bizoncommando]

Will this new macro lens work with GoPro 11? Or this is diferent mounting?

[@tjoelglover]

Question: What lens or additional accessories would you recommend for using the Hero 13 in a Semi Truck, mounting it on the window of dash to record myself while driving?

[@Dcrainmaker]

Probably just either a suction cup mount or clamp mount, that's it. It's plenty wide with the existing lenses in SuperView mode to capture everything. Also, if doing long-term recording, I'd probably get the Magneto connector/cable. Sure, a USB-Cable works just fine, but I like being able to quickly grab and go with it.

[@Bokooda]

First (but by no means the last) GoPro videos 13 videos I watched. Quick, concise and to the point. Cheers 🙏

[@Richard-F4]

Because they using older CPUs, then try to overclock them which makes them heat up and unstable hence they will crash and freeze

[@Richard-F4]

TLDR, They used cheaper components

[@ChrisRogers]

Can always rely on you for one of the most in depth and well covered reviews when it comes to the new GoPro! Great Job man!

[@summerofsam99]

Will that magnetic charging door be compatible with the 12? That would be so nice to use

Yup it is!

There's no such thing as an anamorphic sensor.

ulanzi falcam mount - not falcom? Although the Ulanzi web site does seem to list the magnetic mount that you showed.

I would, to be honest.

[@Zx10Runner]

I just bought the GoPro 12 a week ago on sale. I will be returning it and spending the extra $100 for the reason that the 12 gets really hot. And I love the magnetic mount, new battery, and wireless mics. That’s worth it for me.

[@yootubenig]

Great review as usual sir. But one quick question. With the new charging connector/door will it record/operate without the battery inside using a charging bank?

[@imOUTtraveling]

Not really an important issue but you said the weight of camera increased by 5grams. Is it because of the increased battery size or the actual camera increased in weight?

[@JasonCaville]

When selecting HLG-HDR, does it limit your lens and frame rate options (like HDR did on the Hero 12)? Thanks

[@ivoharink3271]

Great review, thanks! Until this review is was convinced about getting thr Osmo action 5 pro, now I am swaying more towards the GoPro. Perhaps a dumb question, but does the macro lens mod fit in the diving case for specific small critter dives?

[@jameyh75]

Can a GoPro be used with the Final Cut Camera iPad app as one of the 4 cameras or does it have to be an Apple device?

[@BrewsGamesRides]

Really appreciate the camera vids. My gopro 7 black still runs but battery life is short. New Tarmac this year has me riding outdoors again and filming for fun and safety. Looking forward to this upgrade as the insta 360 is a bit to heavy and not easy to mount on aero bars. Cheers from Southern California 🍻

[@BinottoLuca]

Focus peaking is only avaiable with the macro lens mod? If also avaiable without mod, it is avaiable also on GoPro 12/11... ecc?

[@Dcrainmaker]

Only macro lens mod

[@LaposMovies]

Thank you for your Review. New Batterie ... no new Go Pro for me. Have always 2 on my bike and will not by 2 new ones. One would mean 2 Batteries and changer on my bike .. no. One Questions Quick Capture , is the long press mode back ? This starts a Hyperlapse one of my most used features. This is why I still use my 10 because the new ones, does not have this anymore ?

[@oatmonster]

Hey Ray, are you able to retrofit the folding fingers/magnetic mount from the 13 into a hero 10/11/12? Would be awesome to be able to get that feature without having to buy a new camera Edit: It definitely works, you can just install the replacement folding fingers with magnetic mount from the 13 into the 10/11/12

While I use 3 GoPros and one Insta360 on my channel Iwas headed in the direction of the DJI Osmo action camera with the mic 2 so I can blue tooth audio to a remote mic. Since I do jet ski videos I need waterproof camera with remote audio…not sure I will stay with Go pro even though have now implemented it to be compatible with the dji mic 2…. Is the integration seamless… would you stay with the GoPro or go to the DJI camera? Great review as always! Bob

[@Kr3ates]

Will you be doing a full comparison + your preference? With this, the action 5 and ace pro 2? I’m stuck on which of these 3 to get and waiting for your video👀

[@reyskidude]

would this have the max shutter angle (or minimum shutter speed while on auto) baked in the firmware already? or still have to rely on the GoPro Labs firmware?

[@matt_kelly]

I wish they would update the Media Mod to include the fingers/mount instead of using the ones on the camera. I put the camera on my helmet and have to take the thing apart just to change the battery. The quick mount seems like a bit of a help, maybe I'll look into that Ulanzi mount, thanks for that tip.

[@Dcrainmaker]

Totally agree!

Any new app improvements? I really miss splitting video into separate parts on the device itself, so I can throw away big parts of video in a quick way without having to download to the phone.

@@Dcrainmaker I had not gotten that far in yet. I see it now, but I am kinda dubious... Not that I don't trust you, but I have gotten burned by GoPro so many times now... they claim it runs longer and more stable, and to date, it never has. I am sure for watersports or snowboarding it would keep cool, but I was doing a track day, so it's in the wind and getting airflow at almost 150mph, and the damned thing still overheated. I talked to several customer service reps, and they said the only way to keep it from overheating was to limit myself to short videos, or only film at 30fps. I pressed them on that, asking if the "official fix" was to limit my 120fps camera to only 30fps, and the supervisor said yes. lol I have an Ace Pro, and I had an Insta360 One RS 4K and a DJI Action 3 before that, and none of them have ever overheated and shut down on me. The GoPro 9, 10 and 11, it was well over 50% of the time, the footage was ruined...

I had my gopro overheat endlessly while recording races where the camera was mounted on my chest riding between 15-35 mph. I had to switch to a different brand and now this has never been an issue.

Yep same here

what different brand are you using?

@@AN-mx4wv the DJI osmo action 4 is my current favourite, 4k 60 battery lasts a hour and iv never had it freeze or over heat and i use it constantly, Insta 360 4x same deal but worse quality

@@AN-mx4wv i went with dji and so far its been exactly what i needed. recharges insanely fast and battery life is what it says on the box. i have no allegiance to any brand, in 2 years i'll revisit whats available and it may not be dji. i've also learned that maybe the current tech isnt yet there for 4k recording for lots of devices. i recently purchased a $5k mirrorless camera for professional photography projects. guess what? the damn camera overheats and shuts down if you leave it on 4k!

Are these new accessories backwards compatible?
