Battery and runtime

The 1900mAh Enduro battery is specific to HERO13 Black and is not compatible with older GoPro cameras. It gives longer runtimes in all conditions, from hot to freezing.

Runtime was measured at 25°C with a wind speed of 0.6 m/s, using the Wide digital lens, with wireless connections, Bluetooth and HyperSmooth on, front and rear LCD screens on with a 1-minute screensaver, and voice control and GPS off. Under those conditions the battery provides more than 2.5 hours of continuous recording at 1080p30, or over 1.5 hours at 4K30 and 5.3K30.

Lens mods

HB-Series Lenses with auto-detect are compatible with the camera. The suite includes the Macro Lens Mod, Ultra Wide Lens Mod, Smart Motion Blur ND Filter 4-Pack and Anamorphic Lens Mod, sold separately.

The Macro Lens Mod gets 4X closer than the camera alone, with variable focus distance. The Ultra Wide Lens Mod gives a 36% wider and 48% taller field of view than the camera alone. The Anamorphic Lens Mod gives an undistorted 21:9 cinematic aspect ratio with lens flares. The Smart Motion Blur ND Filter 4-Pack automatically adjusts camera settings for pro-quality motion blur.

Mounting and power

The camera is compatible with Magnetic Latch Mounting. The magnetic door and power cable kit includes a magnetic cable that forms a weatherproof seal with the door and connects to any USB-C power source to continuously power the camera.

Connectivity and audio

Bluetooth audio works with Apple AirPods, Bluetooth earbuds or other wireless mics during interviews or narration. Wireless transfers to your phone are over 40% faster with Wi-Fi 6.

Stabilisation and app features

HyperSmooth 6.0 video stabilisation is included. The Quik app can overlay telemetry data, including speed and altitude from GPS, as real-time animated graphics. Multiple HERO13 Blacks can be wirelessly synchronised via timecode in the Quik app.
