With more battery life and GPLog, the HERO12 is worth the upgrade.
Clarification on a previous news story: Wednesday's eNews (11/22) featured a story on YouTube's crackdown on ad blockers.

The GoPro HERO12 Black is the latest installment in the well-known line of GoPro action cameras. The new action camera arrives with a set of new features and enhancements aimed at both casual users and professionals alike.
Feature-wise, the HERO12 Black isn't that much different from its predecessor. As we hoped with this new release, they did manage to improve on some basic shortcomings of its predecessors. Users of the new HERO12 Black can expect dramatically improved runtimes specifically in its best quality (5.3K and 4K 120 fps) modes, an area where previous models struggled due to battery and thermal limitations.
The HERO12 Black also introduces several new modes and capabilities not found in the HERO11. These include GPLog for shooting in a flat color profile, open gate shooting to utilize the full sensor area and smarter stabilization for smoother footage with less crop. The new model also supports wireless microphone pairing and even expands mounting options by including a tripod mount.
Although the GoPro HERO12 Black is quite similar to the HERO11 Black, is it worth upgrading to? Let's discuss.

So you lit your scenes correctly, shot your footage and put the edit together. But somehow it doesn't quite look like the pros, yet. Well, that is because you are missing one important factor: color correction.
Color correction is when you dial in the colors of each shot to make the final image look amazing. It goes from balancing the image to dialing in specific looks, to creating a specific artistic style to the frames. There's only so much you can do on-set. Color correction takes it to that next level and it is an essential part of video editing. Quality matters in this day and age. And even though the average viewer may not know what color correction is or when it is missing, they know something is off. In film and video, it's all about controlling where the eyes go.
