GoPro HERO12 Black Action Camera

Introducing the new HERO12 Black

Best-in-class image quality, even better HyperSmooth video stabilisation and a huge boost in battery performance come together in the world’s most versatile camera. It takes 5.3K video and adds HDR (High Dynamic Range) for even more detail. Tough and lightweight, it’s ready for anything on land or water while advanced stabilisation keeps footage smooth over rough terrain.

Jaw-Dropping 5.3K Video

5.3K delivers best-in-class image quality with 91% more resolution than 4K.

HERO12 Black also captures in 4K, 2.7K and 1080p video resolutions.

Up to 8x Slo-Mo

Get 4x slo-mo—that’s 120 frames per second—at a ridiculously high 4K resolution. You can also ramp up the slo-mo to 8x—240 frames per second—at 2.7K.

Ultra Durable + Waterproof

Waterproof to 10 m and built to take a beating.

Water-Repelling Lens Cover

Hydrophobic lens sheds water to keep your shots crystal clear when you’re in the water.

Emmy®-Winning Video Stabilisation

HyperSmooth 6.0 continues to raise the bar for in-camera video stabilisation, giving you impossibly smooth footage no matter how rough it gets. And it’s winning awards, too—an Emmy® Award for In-Camera Sensor and Software Stabilisation.

AutoBoost

With HyperSmooth 6.0, HERO12 Black automatically ensures you get the widest shots possible while using video stabilisation depending on your speed and movement in the scene.

Built-In Horizon Lock

Horizon Lock is a built-in part of HyperSmooth 6.0, so it’s easier than ever to keep the horizon level when your camera rotates a full 360°.

Larger Image Sensor Lets You Do More

Shoot Wide Screen, Vertical or Full Frame

With a tap, switch between Wide Screen or new Vertical Capture depending on whether you’re shooting for traditional wide-screen playback or social media. Or capture in Full Frame and decide later in the Quik app for maximum versatility.

Ultra Wide-Angle Digital Lenses

HyperView and SuperView—both GoPro exclusive digital lenses—enable ultra wide 16:9 capture, standard in HERO12 Black. For even wider shots, consider the new Max Lens Mod 2.0 accessory.

156° Field of View in Full 8:7

The large image sensor also lets you capture a wide 156° field of view in a full-frame 8:7 aspect ratio, in 5.3K and 4K.

Pro-Level Imaging + Sound

10-Bit Color

10-bit color enables enhanced color depth, smoother gradations and more realism. And pro creators can use GP-Log encoding with LUT to max out dynamic range before applying color correction.

New TimeCode Sync

Wirelessly synchronise multiple HERO12 Blacks via timecode in the Quik app. It’s perfect for when you want to capture an activity from multiple angles and then make precise, match-frame edits in post-production. Use matching timecode clips in Adobe Premiere Pro and other applications that support multi-camera editing for your next project.

New Bluetooth Audio Support

Now you can use your Apple AirPods, Bluetooth earbuds or other wireless mics during interviews or narration. You can also give voice commands remotely and hear alerts from your camera.

Stunning 27MP Photos + 24.7MP Frame Grabs

Just point and shoot for frame-worthy photos. And you can grab high-res, ready-to-share photos right from video.

Dual LCD Screens

Get smooth, snappy playback on the super responsive rear touch screen, and flip to the front screen to frame selfies.

Night Effects at the Push of a Button

Star Trails

Use the Earth’s rotation and stars to capture beautiful light trails in the night sky.

Light Painting

Create brilliant brush stroke effects with moving light.

Vehicle Light Trails

Use night-time traffic to record stunning light trail shots.

Nail Any Shot with In-Camera Power Tools

Hindsight

Hindsight captures up to 30 seconds of footage before you start recording—even if you press the shutter button too late, you’ll still get the shot.

Scheduled + Duration Capture

With Scheduled Capture, your GoPro will turn itself on and automatically capture a shot up to 24 hours in advance. Duration Capture makes it easy to capture video clips from 15 seconds to 3 hours long.

Interval Photo

New Interval Photo can automatically capture photos at fixed intervals while you stay focused on your favourite activities.

Upload, Edit + Share With Ease

Highlight Videos Sent To Your Phone Automatically

After you capture, plug in your GoPro. While it charges, Quik uploads footage to the cloud and uses it to make a ready-to-share highlight video—then sends it to your phone.

Edit Easily in the Quik app

The Quik app is loaded with simple tools. Tweak Automatic Highlight Videos created by the app, or make your own from scratch. Change digital lenses, add filters, crop, cut and more.

Unlimited Cloud Backups

Get unlimited cloud backup of your GoPro + imported footage at 100% quality. Auto Upload is also a huge time saver. Backup from the app, the camera or the web.
