GoPro has announced two new action cameras: the GoPro Hero 13 Black and a more compact model, the GoPro Hero.
GoPro Hero 13 Black
The Hero 13 Black comes with an integrated noise reduction system. This camera can record HLG HDR video and 10-bit video in G-Log. Additionally, it features a new slow-motion mode capable of recording 720p video at up to 400 frames per second, 900p at 360 frames per second, and 5.3K at 120 frames per second. The wireless module has been upgraded to Wi-Fi 6, which provides "up to 40% faster content transfer rates."
Some new features being introduced in the 13 Black include a magnetic mount and magnetic charging, along with three new lenses. The manufacturer has also added a redesigned battery that boasts a 10% higher capacity than its predecessor. Meanwhile, the camera retains many features of the prior model, including the 8:7 sensor.
New Lenses for GoPro Hero 13 Black
GoPro has released a new HB lens series kit for the Hero 13 Black. The Ultra Wide Lens Mod ($99.99) captures a 177-degree field of view with a 1:1 aspect ratio. The new Macro Lens Mod ($129.99) is designed for close-up shots, although it cannot focus closer than 11 cm. The Anamorphic Lens Mod ($129.99) will allow for 21:9 recording and lens flares reminiscent of film.

It can also record 4K video at 30 frames per second and allows for slow-motion recording in 2.7K at 60 frames per second.
The price for the GoPro Hero 13 Black is set at $399, while the Hero will cost $199. Sales will begin on September 10 and September 22, respectively. The Ultra Wide and Macro Lenses will be available for purchase starting September 10, while the Anamorphic Lens will only be released next year.
