About this item
- 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.
- What's Included: HERO12 Black, Enduro Rechargeable Battery, Curved Adhesive Mount, Mounting Buckle plus Thumb Screw, USB-C Cable

- Reviewed in the United States on November 18, 2024I first used a Go Pro back in March when I went shark diving for my birthday. The place we went shark diving at loaned us each a Go Pro to use while diving. I loved it so much I went out and bought me one. I take it with me all the time when going hiking, swimming, Jeepin’, all my adventures!! One of my favorite things about the Go Pro is the ease of syncing photos. As long as you buy the protective case I truly believe it’s worth the money. I have one of the clear waterproof cases they used when we were shark diving (bought it same day I bought the camera) and that has been tested to be waterproof but I wouldn’t tru just the camera simply because of how much it costs. The sound on the camera is great. Picture quality is great as long as you face away from the sun, I’ve found every photo I’ve taken facing the sun is totally ruined and not just a glare in part of the photo. Very pleased with the quality.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 14, 2025I really like this camera since you are getting 2 angles. It’s easy to use and highly customizable. The video quality is good and you can get a lot of accessories for mounting
- Reviewed in the United States on October 13, 2023The media could not be loaded.
in 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---- 2024-02-19
The camera is fantastic, it has excellent recording and stabilization, I use it on my bicycle on the handlebars
I 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.
5.0 out of 5 starsI come from a gopro hero 301 and its fantastic, well.. i should say the battery it's not like i thoughtGreat GoPro works very well for me

- Reviewed in the United States on December 22, 2024I was able to get some great underwater footage in Aruba....fish, sea turtles, corals, sunken ship, etc. It was fairly easy to use over all. I was concerned about overheating, as I had read complaints about those issues, but tried to be careful by taking shorter clips. I also used it when off-roading in a UTV, hooked it up to a mountain bike, and secured it to an underwater propulsion device. It also works with a chest harness I have, an underwater floating stick, and many other older parts I have for another brand camera. Based on reviews about overheating, I almost went with another brand again, but that was not an American company, and based in a country known for being a security threat, requiring you to install software on your phone. This tipped the scale for me back to GoPro. I was conservative with battery usage and bought back ups. And so far, I am pretty pleased, but I am using it for recreational purposes and not a professional videographer. I was able to extract some decent photos from some of my turtle footage. And, I edited my footage into some shorter clips for use on social media.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 25, 2024At first we thought it wasn’t charging, but we had to get the right SD card and it was fine .

5.0 out of 5 stars Meets Expectations, can improve on Wake and Shoot Feature
It is a GoPro, good video quality during daytime, stabilization is bad at night, but I was expecting that.
A notable drawback is the camera's tendency to shut down immediately after using the wake and shoot feature. This can be inconvenient for users who wish to review their footage immediately. After recording, the camera powers off, requiring users to restart it to access the playback function. This extra step could be a minor annoyance for those who frequently review their shots right after capture.
