GoPro Hero 13 Black vs GoPro Hero 12 Black: 5 headline upgrades in GoPro’s latest flagship

There’s not a great deal that’s new in the Hero 13 Black. Like the Hero 12 Black compared to its own predecessor, the improvements are tweaks that mostly favor serious filmmakers who want more cinematic footage, now including a new series of accessories. 

For example, many were hoping for 8K video or a larger sensor for better low-light performance, but instead we have the same 8:7 aspect ratio sensor with 5.3K video up to 60fps. That said, we now get the option of HLG HDR video to minimize the loss of detail in shadows and highlights, plus a slow-mo mode to up that 5.3K maximum frame rate to 120fps. 

The body is practically the same, as is GoPro’s already impressive HyperSmooth stabilization. But rather than emphasizing what’s the same this time around, let’s take a look at the five most noteworthy new features you can expect from GoPro’s latest flagship.
