GoPro’s Hero 12 Black: Longer Battery Life, Vertical Videos, and More!

Introducing GoPro’s latest marvel – the Hero 12 Black! This action camera packs a punch with some exciting new features that will elevate your filming adventures to a whole new level.

One of the standout features is its extended battery life, perfect for those moments when you want to capture every second of your adventure. Thanks to a revamped power management system, you can expect up to double the runtime compared to its predecessor, the Hero 11 Black. Just keep in mind that this boost is with the included Enduro battery; using a standard GoPro battery will yield different results.

For all you content creators out there looking to conquer TikTok and YouTube Shorts, the Hero 12 Black offers a nifty 9:16 vertical capture mode. Pair this with Bluetooth support for audio devices like AirPods and microphones, and you’ve got the perfect tool for creating seamless vertical videos.

But that’s not all – professionals will find a lot to love too. With the Hero 12 Black, you can capture stunning HDR photos and videos at 5.3K resolution. It boasts GP-Log encoding for an even wider dynamic range. And here’s a game-changer: you can sync timecodes across an “unlimited number” of Hero 12 Black cameras, making multi-angle editing a breeze.

For those wanting to expand their field of view, there’s the Max Lens Mod 2.0 accessory, allowing you to record at a 177-degree angle in 4K at 60fps. This means a whopping 36 percent wider field of view for widescreen videos and an impressive 48 percent taller field of view for vertical content. Just note that the lens is a separate purchase.

Now, let’s talk about the price. The GoPro Hero 12 Black comes in at $399.99 and is available for pre-order starting this Wednesday (6 September). If you’re eager to get your hands on the Max Lens Mod 2.0, that’ll cost you $99.99 (or $79.99 if you’re a GoPro subscriber) and will also be available on Wednesday. Mark your calendars, as you can grab these fantastic cameras in stores starting September 13th.

But wait, there’s more! GoPro subscribers will be thrilled to hear about the update to the GoPro Quik app. You can now edit your videos directly from the cloud, eliminating the need to download them to your device. It’s all about convenience and enhancing your filming experience.

So, whether you’re an adrenaline junkie, a content creator, or a professional videographer, the GoPro Hero 12 Black is your ticket to capturing unforgettable moments in style. Don’t miss out on this game-changing gadget!
