Use the Standard Frame with GoPro mounts to create a wide array of ultra compact gear setups.

Ball Joint Buckle
The Ball Joint Buckle gives you the freedom to change things up without having to stop and un-mount the camera.

Professional video quality
Hero5 Session delivers stunning video quality. Capture high-resolution 4K UHD 30p/25p and FullHD 90p/50p video that's sharp and lifelike. High frame rate 720p100 video enables exceptionally smooth slow-motion playback of your best moments.

Powerful photo capture
Nail the shot with a variety of photo modes. Capture 8MP single photos, Time Lapse photos at set intervals from 0.5 to 60 seconds, and Burst photos at 10 frames per second. When it comes to versatile photo capture, Hero5 Session's got you covered.

Access all modes & adjust settings with the GoPro App or Smart Remote
Hero5 Session captures 1080p30 Ultra Wide video and 8MP Time Lapse photos at 0.5 second intervals right out of the box. You can also access most of the modes of other Hero cameras using the GoPro App or Smart Remote. From single photos to Time Lapse photos, Burst photos to Looping Video—Hero5 Session does it all. You can also use the app or remote to easily adjust settings like video resolution, frame rate, field of view and more.

Durable & waterproof
Hero5 Session is rugged and waterproof to 10 m, eliminating the need for a separate housing. Its convenient, ready-to-go design makes it easy to get out the door quickly to capture and enjoy your session.

Easy one-button control
A single press of the shutter button powers on the camera and begins capturing video or Time Lapse photos automatically. A second press of the shutter button stops recording and powers off the camera. It’s that simple.

World's most immersive video
Hero5 Session features SuperView™, a GoPro-exclusive video mode that captures the world's most immersive wide-angle field of view. It allows you to capture more of yourself and your surroundings in the shot—resulting in captivating, ultra engaging footage of every adventure.

Auto Low Light
Let the camera do the thinking for you. Auto Low Light mode intelligently changes frame rates based on lighting conditions for optimal low-light performance, enabling you to move between bright and dark environments without having to adjust your camera settings.

Protune™ for video
Protune unlocks the camera's full potential, delivering minimally compressed, cinema-caliber video optimized for professional productions.

HiLight Tag your best moments
HiLight Tag enables you to mark key moments while recording so you can quickly locate your best clips later for convenient playback, editing or sharing. Just press the button on the camera or Smart Remote when you capture a moment you'd like to tag. You can also tag your highlights using the GoPro App.

Dual mic system
Hero5 Session features two microphones: one on the front of the camera and one on the back. When you’re filming in windy conditions or during high-speed activities like motorsports, the camera automatically switches to the mic that's best-suited for capturing optimal audio. The result? Reduced wind noise and enhanced audio capture—no matter what the conditions or activity.

Built-in battery
The battery is built directly into the camera and offers up to two hours of recording time on a full charge. The included USB cable allows for charging the camera with your computer or the GoPro Auto or Wall Charger.

Mount upside down, capture right-side up
When the camera is mounted upside down, Auto Image Rotation automatically adjusts the capture orientation to right-side up so there’s no need to flip your footage in post-production.

Compatible with all GoPro mounts
Hero5 Session is compatible with all GoPro mounts. So whether you've got a stash of mounts at home, or you're looking for fresh ways to capture your favorite activities, you'll be good to go. Wear it on your helmet or chest for a unique perspective. Mount it to bikes, boards, motorcycles and more to capture immersive footage of the experience. Wear it. Mount it. Love it.

Control, view and share with built-in Wi-Fi & Bluetooth®
With built-in Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, you can connect to the GoPro App to control the camera remotely with your phone or tablet, view the content you've captured and share your favorite shots on Instagram, Twitter and more. You'll also have instant access to the GoPro Channel, so you can get your fix of the latest GoPro videos from across the globe. The Smart Remote makes it possible to control multiple GoPro cameras from distances of up to 182 m.
