**San Mateo, CA** – GoPro, the renowned action camera pioneer, has announced the release of two new models, the Hero and Hero13 Black, bringing a suite of improvements for both casual and professional users.

The entry-level **GoPro Hero** boasts a compact design, weighing just 86 grams, making it the smallest GoPro with an integrated screen. Priced at $199, the Hero is aimed at amateur videographers and those seeking a user-friendly 4K camera for capturing everyday adventures, from extreme sports to travel vlogs. Its touchscreen interface and waterproof design (up to 15 feet) make it perfect for a range of activities.

**The Hero13 Black**, priced at $399.99, is geared towards experienced users. GoPro has addressed user feedback by significantly improving battery life, now offering up to 1.5 hours of continuous 4K recording at 30 frames per second and over 2.5 hours at 1080p30.

This model also introduces a versatile new mounting system featuring a “snap and go” magnetic latch in addition to traditional mounting options. Further enhancements include faster wireless data transfer with WiFi 6, integrated GPS, and a user interface designed for a smoother experience.

Perhaps the most exciting update for professionals is the expansion of the lens mod system. GoPro has added optional ultra-wide, macro, and anamorphic lenses, all compatible with HyperSmooth image stabilization and waterproof capabilities. The camera automatically recognizes attached lenses and adjusts the user interface accordingly.

The new GoPro Hero is available for pre-order now, while the Hero13 Black will be available for pre-order starting tomorrow. The optional lenses for the Hero13 Black are priced at $99 for the ultra-wide and $129 for the anamorphic and macro lenses.
