GoPro MISSION 1

MISSION 1: The same as the flagship in every way but limited to 4K120 Open Gate video capture and 8K30, 4K120, 1080p240 16:9 video capture. 50MP photo capture is the same as in the flagship model. MISSION 1 is perfect for the creator who doesn’t require the higher Open Gate resolutions and category-leading frame rates of the flagship model but still wants the outstanding low-light and image quality benefits of the new 50MP 1” sensor and ultra-power-efficient GP3 processor.

MISSION 1 Series of cameras— the world’s smallest, lightest, and most rugged 8K and 4K Open Gate cinema cameras. Featuring a new 50MP 1” sensor and GoPro’s new, ultra-efficient GP3 processor, the MISSION 1 Series cameras deliver category-leading resolutions, frame rates, runtimes and thermal performance for mission-critical reliability in even the most demanding environments.

Made for the Pursuit—the MISSION 1 Series is designed from the ground up to meet the needs of today’s demanding filmmakers and creators. Whatever your mission, GoPro.

A NEW LEVEL OF PERFORMANCE

NEW 1” SENSOR
Designed to capture more light and deliver sharper, more detailed images with reduced noise, even in challenging low-light conditions.

8K OPEN GATE
Open Gate captures a taller frame in 4:3 at up to 8K30, resulting in 33% greater resolution than competitors. This gives creators much more flexibility in editing, reframing and delivering content in multiple formats.

BETTER RUNTIMES + THERMAL PERFORMANCE
The GP3 processor, advanced hardware optimization and a higher-capacity Enduro 2 battery with fast-charging deliver the longest continuous runtimes and most dependable thermal performance of any GoPro ever.

50MP PHOTOS
Shoot high-resolution photos that are ready for the gallery, in any environment.

SUPERIOR LOW-LIGHT CAPABILITY
The new GP3 processor runs advanced de-noise algorithms to clean up your shots, while the 1” sensor provides exceptional detail from the darkest shadows. It’s by far the best low-light performance GoPro has achieved.

POWERED BY THE NEW GP3 PROCESSOR
A new System-on-a-Chip delivers 2X the pixel processing power to enable best-in-class resolutions and frame rates. It’s the foundation for groundbreaking features across every new GoPro camera.

MISSION 1 Series Features

• New 50MP 1” Sensor features a larger surface area and larger native 1.6µm pixels and massive 3.2µm fused pixels—capturing more light for professional low-light performance, up to 14 stops of dynamic range at the sensor, and professional-grade image quality when paired with GoPro’s new GP3 processor and its image processing capabilities.
• New GP3 Processor features an ultra-power-efficient 5nm design, enabling category-leading battery runtimes and thermal performance along with best-in-class resolutions, frame rates and image quality. An AI Neural Processor Unit (NPU) enables next-generation video pixel processing and stunning low-light image performance.
• Incredible Low-Light Performance and Dynamic Range is made possible by the combination of the new 50MP 1” sensor and the new GP3 processor with its advanced image processing. Capable of up to 14 stops of dynamic range at the sensor and giant 3.2µm fused pixels in Quad Bayer mode, the MISSION 1 Series’ imaging pipeline preserves exceptional detail in the darkest of shadows while protecting highlight details, resulting in beautifully balanced, true-to-life images.
• Category-Leading 16:9 Video Resolutions, Frame Rates and Slow Motion are possible with MISSION 1 PRO and MISSION 1 PRO ILS, including professional-grade 8K 16:9 video at up to 60 frames per second (2X Slo-Mo), ultra-smooth 4K 16:9 at up to 240 frames per second (8X Slo-Mo), and up to 10-second burst 960 frames per second in 1080p 16:9 for shockingly smooth 32X Slo-Mo. You can also capture non-burst 1080p 16:9 (and 1440p 4:3) at 480 frames per second (16X Slo-Mo). These are the highest frame rates and slowest Slo-Mo rates in category, rivaling the capabilities of cameras costing tens of thousands of dollars. MISSION 1 enables 8K30, 4K120, and 1080p240 16:9 capture along with 4K120 and 1440p240 4:3 video.
• Industry-Leading 8K30 and 4K120 Open Gate Video is supported in MISSION 1 PRO and MISSION 1 PRO ILS, enabling full sensor 4:3 captures for added flexibility for reframing, editing, and exporting content in multiple aspect ratios for different viewing platforms. The Series’ base model, MISSION 1, supports 4K120 Open Gate video capture.
• Category-Leading Runtimes and Thermal Performance are made possible by the new ultra-power-efficient GP3 processor, advanced hardware optimizations, and the higher-capacity, fast-charging Enduro 2 Battery. The MISSION 1 Series of cameras deliver 5+ hours of recording at 1080p301 and 3+ hours of recording at 4K30 on a single charge. The Enduro 2 battery is also compatible with HERO13 Black cameras and likewise the MISSION 1 Series cameras can work with the older HERO13 Black Enduro battery, albeit with shorter runtimes2. The MISSION 1 Series has been designed from the ground up to deliver reliable, mission-critical performance in the most demanding use cases and environments.
• 13 Capture Modes Enable Convenient Pro-Capture: Each mode is tuned for specific environments or use-cases, using advanced machine learning and scene detection to deliver optimal image quality across a broad range of environments. From activity-specific underwater color science and tuned-stabilization in Dive Mode to face-aware framing and tone mapping in Vlog Mode, the MISSION 1 Series can simplify image-optimization for many common capture scenarios. Or you can choose to capture video with your own custom settings, bypassing all automated settings for complete control.
• Category-Leading Bitrates, Color Depth and Control for Professionals: Dial up the bitrate to a stunning 240Mbps and capture HLG-HDR, 10-Bit Color with GP-Log2, and Timecode Sync for multi-camera shoots, or maximize quality while minimizing file size with GP3’s new advanced encoder.
• Category-Leading Pro-Level Audio: 4 microphones deliver improved stereo recording and wind noise reduction while 32-Bit Float audio recording helps prevent clipping. And Bluetooth® 5.3 audio lets you wirelessly connect to compatible devices utilizing the Hands-Free Profile (HFP) v1.9 with Super Wideband (SWB) Speech, for high-fidelity wireless audio.
• Category-Leading 50 Megapixel Photo Resolution and Image Quality thanks to the combination of the new 50MP 1” sensor and new GP3 processor’s combined capabilities. Capture in RAW or leverage advanced scene detection and machine learning for category-leading HDR photos in the convenient SuperPhoto mode. With up to 14 stops of dynamic range at the sensor and GP3’s next-gen image processing—including the ability to burst capture at up to 60 photos per second—the MISSION 1 Series pushes the boundaries of compact camera photo capture in the same manner it does video.
• Updated Design Increases Waterproofness to 66ft (20m): MISSION 1 and MISSION 1 PRO are waterproof to 66ft (20m) right out of the box without the need for housing, making them the best imaging solution for divers.
• New Lens Design, Bigger Rear Display and Redesigned Buttons make the MISSION 1 Series easier to use in all use cases. Design improvements include an updated lens design with a category-widest 159° native field of view (FOV); a new OLED rear display which is 14% larger than previous flagship GoPro cameras; taller, chunkier raised buttons for easier use with gloves on; and a removable lens hood to reduce glare and lens flare for clearer images.
