Best Action Camera Deal
Photograph: Scott Gilbertson
There are a lot of action cameras on sale right now, but this is the best deal. The Hero 13 Black was a big update for GoPro’s flagship cam. It now features an interchangeable lens system, which makes it a much more versatile camera. If the standard lens doesn’t fit your use case, there’s also an Ultra Wide Lens Mod ($96) with a 177-degree field of view, a Macro Lens Mod ($130) for close-ups, and an Anamorphic Lens Mod ($130) with a 21:9 aspect ratio and those sweet, sweet movie-style lens flares.
The Hero 13 Black also finally got a magnetic mounting system, and a new, larger battery that lasts up to an hour and 45 minutes when shooting 4K (battery life depends a lot on ambient temps; if it’s hot, that number will drop). GoPro has also dropped a white version and a forest green version if black is too boring for you.

A GoPro Alternative

Just look at that flip-up screen, and imagine your lovely mug reflected at you like the light of a thousand suns. Doesn’t your lovely mug deserve a Leica lens and glorious 8K video selfies? Selfie video? Velfies? I don’t know what the kids call it, but if you’re into it this is a great deal on a serious upgrade from your phone.
Read my full review of the Ace Pro 2 for all the details, but everything you want is here–a large 1/1.3-inch sensor capable of 8K video at 30 fps, great audio, best-in-class low-light video, and good battery life. There’s even support for log video and USB mic connections when you hit your auteur stage. This is the lowest price we’ve ever seen for the Ace Pro 2.
