there has got to be a better strategy than forcing your ambassadors to say that their videos aren't sponsored. I prefer them not stating affiliation at all than this.
You should do the GoPro master course and dive into some of the settings, etc. I have been a GoPro user for 12 years now and still struggle with understanding in depth details and all the power they can provide. Thanks for being the best Chris!
@@delrayguy399 don’t even get me started on how much those “reviews” frustrate me 🤣💀 honestly the only reason I make reviews is because of how utterly incompetent and pointless those type of review videos are 🤣 everyone deserves to see an action camera review used for actual Action! 🙌
Totally agree. These reviews Chris does resonate with me much more than the backyard reviewers. It’s real world usage that gets us buying, I’m not gonna buy a GoPro to film myself mowing the lawn 😂
Dude is out there filming wales and doing backflips into 60ft waterfalls while most of us will be trying to ultra slow motion our pets in our backyard 😭
Every time GoPro releases a new camera, it's your reviews that I look forward to the most. IMO with the kind of videos you put out, your opinions definitely carry the most weight. Thanks for the video
@@KevGoesRiding appreciate that my man 🙌🙏 the only reason I make these reviews is because I don’t feel like most action camera reviews are done properly! And that would really frustrate me as a potential customer
This is the review I’ve been waiting for…an actual high end user who has a very long history of using action cameras in a professional manner. Thank you!
I'm a simple man, when Chris Rogers posts I watch I like and learn a few tricks also. This guy could use a potato as a camera as still make an epic video with it. There is a lot of "hate" related to Hero 13, yet this is a very solid and refined camera, not half baked like others.
@@TechTronic9000 a simple man with a solid level of intellect 👏 something that’s no very prevalent in comment sections on the internet 🤣🤣 Appreciate the support as always dude 🙌
Superb review, as always! You are the top dawg expert when it comes to Action camera reviews. No one is better qualified.. period - end of story. GoPro continues to blow away the competition with the 13. Master course? 👏👏
Hands down the best review out there, for people that are actually using the GoPro how it was planned to be used. For me, I use it for extreme sports like Motocross and Cliffdiving. Especially for Motorcross the ND Filters are going to make the footage way more appealing. That the GoPro now automatically adjusts everything for the best looks with the ND Filters is super because the changing weather conditions with clouds and sun on the Tracks.
This is the only review worth watching on the new GoPro Hero 13 - finally all the actual details that creators & makers can use to understand what version 13 of this camera brings, thnank you!
I watched a few other videos before yours and was dead set on not needing to update (I film with a gopro professionally doing FPV drone work). After watching yours though, I'm torn now. Well done on actually showing why it's a good upgrade
GoPro has always been the king and always will be in my opinion. I am a GoPro fan-boy 😂but they do every thing I need/want them to do and I just love them
GoPro is my go to action camara for recording vacation travels, I do not want to use my phone. I have been a dedicated user ! Every couple years I get the newest version and I am always happy with the changes and advances. This new version brings the interchangeable lenses and I am so excited for this technology. I was able to take some amazing photos on my recent trip to Hawaii, thanks to its exceptional performance. And when paired with precision mounts and accessories from IdolFoto or Ulanzi, which truly takes my footage to the next level
There’s a lot of chat about the cameras not brining a “wow” factor. I think people forget what these cameras are for especially in light of the price point consideration. In reality, all of the cameras are hitting a “plateau” in a general sense of what is possible with action cameras. And people are so polarised, armchair tech complainers. The GoPro is so epic, the updates are so cool all things considered. But not one of the new cameras is going to blow anyone out the water- at least not for a while. Lord, people love complaining about their free content 😂👏🏼 epic job Chris!
Very good review on how these features work. One thing that seems be overlooked on every review is the ability to do multicam shoots with 2 or more GoPros placed at different angles. This is the only action camera that has built-in timecode that can be jamsync'd to either a QRCode or LTC. This makes it so much easier in post to align all the videos. In fact, I use a 3rd party software from FutureVideo, called Multi-View HD Pro 2, which allows me to playback in complete sync all angles at once to review or make a presentation, without the need to do any rendering or waiting for proxies to be built. Worthwhile to look at!
Yes, I plan to purchase the standard version of the new GoPro Hero 13. While I bought the Max Mode (One) when it was released, I didn't use it extensively due to its 2.7K resolution. This time, I'll thoroughly research the macro, anamorphic,and ultrawide lens capabilities before making a final decision
Hey, I've been following your channel since 2016 or so, because at that time I was thinking on buying a GoPro for my surf sessions. Time has passed and I didn't pull the trigger till now, I was looking for a review of the 12 vs 13 since I never had a GoPro and I thought the 12 could be enough but you completely sold me that 13, so yeah, I will get my first GoPro (beeing the 13) thanks to you, keep up the amazing work you've been giving us trough the years! Love from Portugal
Great review. It is exactly what you said at the start, a review coming from someone that is actually using gopros a lot with lots of great practical tips. Getting the best results is not just about higher specs but also a lot about knowing how to use it best and the 13 seems to make this easier to achieve for many. thanks! will buy your luts.
I'm glad to see that the magnetic mount can also be used when the Hero 13 is in the Media Mod or Floaty. No other reviewer has mentioned that. If it didn't it wouldn't be as useful to me.
Sold my gp12, using the subscription discount to get the gp13. Net loss is $60. I could live with that :) mainly use it for fishing videos. The heatsink and bigger battery will help.
This is genius! 👏 more people should know about that hack! If don’t already have a dome port for your GoPro check out GDome. I’ve seen guys get really cool fishing shots with one when reeling in near the boat or shore!
so many comments across all these reviews stating "GoPro copied DJI, GoPro can't innovate!" and vice versa on features... its called free market competition and is a healthy thing because we get better features on a wide variety of action cams. Competition drives innovation.
Stoked on the lens kit! Been waiting for a while for these. Would be cool for the GP14 they make them with a magnetic lens protector to protect the dome of glass. Kinda like PolarPro ND filters signature series meets Gopro scratch-up and toss away lens covers. Make the GP w/ lens mod bomb-proof again. Cheers for the review bru
The only issue I find with the macro mod is (and this is stated on their website) that the mod isn’t for use underwater, which is where I need a macro lens.
Now I wonder.... can you use the anamorphic lens in combination with a ND filter? Because if not... is buying the anamorphic worth it? Please let me know. Very curious.
Finally gopro is good again. I had a 7 for 2-3 years. Mainly used it for hiking and other motsports, ect. But broke it about 4-5 years ago and held off on getting a gopro because of overheating heat and short battery life. But it seems like they fixed it on the 13. So I might just buy it.
Not gonna lie. Sick new features but I do feel a liiiitle bit underwhelmed. I think what attaches me more to the GoPro is the community! Not complaints on your end, kick ass review and content as always buddy! Keep it up!
@@4daocean totally get where you’re coming from the new features are for sure a bigger depending on how you mostly use your action camera, for some people it’s really not much of a change and for others it’s decent. I feel like we only get a HUGE change every like 4 years with most modern day camera tech 🤷♂️ Appreciate the support man 🙌🙏
@@TVNetworld unfortunately it doesn’t fit on the HERO12. Even if it did, there is a whole new mode in the hero13 that has been designed for the macro lens so if you put in on the 12 it wouldn’t work properly anyway. If you watch my previous video in Costa Rica I put a cheap macro filter from Amazon on my HERO12 and still get some cool shots but it’s a lot harder to use than the new one on the HERO13 😊
Nice to actually see a video where the camera is being used normally, not just "tested" in a tech review haha! But I'm curious Chris, did you notice with the ND shots from 11:05 - it looks like the ND filters are creating a 'wobble' on objects in the background? Possibly an issue of them not playing nice with the stabilisation? It's there in the 13 with ND but not the 12 without.
Thanks Amelia! 😊 I know what you are referring to but I can’t see it on that shot 😅 if you watch the next shot where I put an ND on both the HERO12 and 13 you can see that wobble/ghosting on the HERO12 because the auto shutter speed does not correct properly for the ND filter like the 13 does. At the end of the day it’s just a balancing act of having the right shutter speed to make sure the stabilisation works properly to have no “wobble/ghosting” 😊
@@ChrisRogers thanks for the reply! Haha yeah it’s harder to see on a phone screen unless you zoom in, I was watching on my laptop, but it appears on the mountain top in the background around when you say “one…” “and two”. Different to regular motion blur.
I’m testing the DJI action 5 pro for a couple of months. I’m hoping that the DJI action 5 pro won’t let me down like my go pro 8. Would like to thank my buddy for letting me use his DJI action 5 pro. 😊
Thanks man! I don't see a creator edition option for the 13 online but usually the creator edition comes with the Media Mod and a tripod/selfie stick that has a built in battery. I see there is a Ultra-wide lens bundle option though
@@DZRIDEZ unfortunately can’t be used on older cameras because it’s a whole new mode designed into the camera and I don’t think the lens fits on. That being said if you watch my previous video in Costa Rica I used a cheap $20 macro filter I found on Amazon on my HERO12 and still got some cool shots! The actual GoPro Macro is waaaay easier to use and is also adjustable
@@mottiavraham60 yes! GDome and all other accessories are compatible! The only thing that is not compatible is the older batteries which sucks but they had to change the battery to make it last a lot longer
It crops because when you film in 1080p camera can take data from whole 5.3k sensor and downscales it. This gives you better quality than filming with regular 1080p sensor because camera can collect more information and thus give more detailed final image . When using 360fps mode camera is already taking a lot of data from all of these frames and because of that there is not enough processing power to downscale 5.3k to 960p so camera choses to use smaller part of the sensor (digital crop) that would be easier to downscale. For example 1920p (not 1080p) can be easily downscaled to 960p because it is integer scaling (4 pixels to 1). This limitation is common in most cameras, even in expensive ones.
Being waiting on this vídeos all day yesterday, even check The Chanel before i slept (6h ago) and nothing…But now it says 20h ago New vídeo…Cmon UA-cam!!! By the way, still dont know how you get such a crispy nice footage
@@FiliusDei777 UA-cam is tripping out haha it only went live like 2hrs ago but when I made it public it was saying uploaded 5hrs ago 🤷♂️🤣 super weird but appreciate the support legend 🙌💙
Hi Chris. May I know how do I apply for a drone permit in Maldives? I have been trying my best to apply through the online portal website but have no luck. Hope you are able to assist me on this. Thank you.
I haven't been since 2019 so not sure if there are new rules? if you are just going on holiday and not filming commercially you should be fine. Obviously just don't fly in any restricted zones or near water planes.
In my case, I would go for the Hero 12. I have a ton of batteries from my broken Hero 9, and if the difference isn't that much, it's not worth it to buy a Hero 13 (which costs €399 in The Netherlands), plus I would have to buy extras for the Hero 13
@@SikkeTiemersma good point to save some money! Especially if you don’t need some of the lenses! But If your spare batteries are not the white enduro ones then it might be worth getting the 13 because the older cameras last way longer with the enduro batteries instead of the regular ones. Hope that helps :)
@@stevemcauley8209 that will come down to your GoPro settings, unfortunately if you make the file size smaller by reducing the bit rate and the resolution you won’t be getting the best possible footage out of your GoPro…
@@ChrisRogers sorry last question. Do people just leave the footage on sd cards and just transfer back and forth. Or what’s the best option. Thanks again.

Hi Chris. May I know how do I apply for a drone permit in Maldives? I have been trying my best to apply through the online portal website but have no luck. Hope you are able to assist me on this. Thank you.
I haven't been since 2019 so not sure if there are new rules? if you are just going on holiday and not filming commercially you should be fine. Obviously just don't fly in any restricted zones or near water planes.
I don't know why Gopro doesn't sell the Anamorphic Lens yet, the website Just says "Coming"
Thank you for your information sir 🫡
In my case, I would go for the Hero 12. I have a ton of batteries from my broken Hero 9, and if the difference isn't that much, it's not worth it to buy a Hero 13 (which costs €399 in The Netherlands), plus I would have to buy extras for the Hero 13
@@SikkeTiemersma good point to save some money! Especially if you don’t need some of the lenses! But If your spare batteries are not the white enduro ones then it might be worth getting the 13 because the older cameras last way longer with the enduro batteries instead of the regular ones. Hope that helps :)
How do people make the files smaller when transferring them to a iPhone. GoPro videos just eat up all my iPhone storage. Thanks
@@stevemcauley8209 that will come down to your GoPro settings, unfortunately if you make the file size smaller by reducing the bit rate and the resolution you won’t be getting the best possible footage out of your GoPro…
@@ChrisRogers sorry last question. Do people just leave the footage on sd cards and just transfer back and forth. Or what’s the best option. Thanks again.
Same old GoPro, just slapped a new number on it and added some fancy lens options 😂
I think this might be the end of GoPro
@@JrFarren_ did you even watch the video 🤣🤣🤣
@@ChrisRogers Have waited for your video to watch the review, since 13 was released last night 😁 Really like your work man!!
@@JrFarren_ appreciate it dude! I may or may not have unreleased action cameras from other companies, so potentially expect and seriously in depth comparison in next few weeks 😏
Any feedback on photos?
The anamorphic lens seems to be the best of this new camera but having it's launch somewhere in 2025 (?) seems quite disapointing...
This review is so much better than what Potato Jet did. He is really phoning it in these days.
@@larrycoonrod5563 I love him! he’s got amazing film maker knowledge from the big production side but he’s not an action sports dude like myself and a bunch of other people who should be making reviews of action cameras you know
What’s a gor pror?
what about low light is it grainy?
the same like hero 11 ;) because it is hero 11 with another software and battery update.
@@xXadambXx last good gopro was hero 4 black
If this video is not sponsored by gopro, how did you get access to the camera when it is not for sale?
Having been in the industry for a decade now I’m very lucky to get a lot of gear before it is released to the public.
When a UA-camr says their video is sponsored they are actually being Paid by the company, and I was not paid to make this video
