About This ItemDescriptionRugged + Waterproof to 33ft (10m) Completely waterproof and as tough as ever, HERO12 Black is ready to capture the fun on any adventure.

A water-repelling lens cover even helps eliminate lens flare and other artifacts to make your photos and videos even more stunning. 2x Longer Runtime HERO12 Black’s dramatically improved battery efficiency combines with the included 1720mAh Enduro battery to deliver a huge 2x increase in 5.3K60 video runtime on each charge.
