Q: QuestionHello. I'm interesting to buy gopro 12. What about overheating? Because my previous experience with gopro 7, 9...show that this a big problem. And now I need cam but not sure. Please change my bad opinion about this problem. Thank you

Asked 1 year ago by Sergio.

• A:Answer If it were me I’d steer clear of the GoPro 12. Like I said in my review previously that it overheated twice and shut down on me while filming a sons basketball game and I wasnt even doing it in 4K. So to me thats just ridiculous for a camera thats $400 I just knew better than to try GoPro again because theyre lacking in development and improving theor cameras. Went with DJI Action4 and never looked back. Hasnt overheated yet and better picture anyway from a reputable company. Ive filmed 4 games already with no issues

Q: QuestionDoes this GoPro 12 , sold by itself and not in a bundle, come with a battery charger in the box? It does not say it comes with a battery charger, but I have never purchased a camera that did not come with a battery charger.

Asked 1 year ago by RichNEPA.

• A:Answer It comes with a battery and usb charging cable. You can plug the usb cable into any usb port to charge it. It does not include an adapter. Probably because the company figures most people have usb charging capabilities; cars, computers, phone charging adapters, surge protectors, etc...

Q: QuestionHow will the GoPro Hero12 work for videoing track and field events? I have a daughter in high school who is an amazing runner, and I am trying to find a camera that will capture her runs. Any help would be appreciated.

Asked 5 months ago by JenniferD.

• A:Answer I have been using my new GoPro to film sea life in the Florida Keys, and it has been fantastic! It has captured a lot of sea life in full motion with excellent results. Its main claim to fame, of course, is that it is an underwater camera, but I'm sure it would work really well for your purposes too. There are special settings for action shots that I haven't explored, but they might be of special use to you. I highly recommend it!
