GoPro HB-Series AKTLM-001 2-3mm
A constant f/2.5 aperture and rotating manual focus ring enable extreme close-up shots from just 4.33 inches away, a 4x improvement over standard GoPro lenses. Its 1:1 aspect ratio capture and focus peaking display offer unusual post-production flexibility and precision for an action camera system. This lens is best for content creators shooting detailed product close-ups or macro time lapses who already own a HERO13 Black.
