Q: I have been looking for a tiny GoPro that would fit on a hot wheel car (there is one that is specifically made for a camera but I have no idea which one). Would this fit on it?

submitted by Cclark - 2 years ago
  • A: I’d recommend an insta 360. It is smaller and more versatile.

    submitted bySam - 2 years ago
  • A: There was a special Hot Wheels car with a built-in mount for the GoPro Session cameras. The HERO has a different size and shape than those Session models, but it might work with a Hot Wheels car. You might need to use an adhesive mount or other mounting system to attach it to a car though.

Q: Can I attatch this to my surf board and is it waterproof?

submitted by Kai wyman - 2 years ago
  • A: Hi Kai wyman, thanks for reaching out about GoPro HERO You would need both mounting and waterproofing accessories to attach this to your surf board. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

    submitted byJustin - 2 years ago
    Target staff support
  • A: Yes, the HERO can be used on a surfboard. The HERO is waterproof on its own down to 16 feet, so it should handle the splashes and waves well. GoPro also makes a specialized surfboard mount that sticks to most surfboards and includes a tether for added security.

Q: Will this mount attachment work in the mount that's in the old Toyota Tacomas? 2016/2017

submitted by amber - 2 years ago
  • A: Hi amber, thanks for reaching out about GoPro HERO. Yes, it uses strong double-sided tape to hold the mount in place. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

    submitted byMatt - 2 years ago
    Target staff support
  • A: The mount installed on the Tacomas using our standard mounting system, so the mounting buckle that is included with the HERO camera should slide right into the Tacoma's mount, and then you can connect the HERO to that buckle.

Q: Is this model good for recording and taking northern light pictures in an extrem cold (-40 F) weather?

submitted by Victor - 2 years ago
  • A: Hi Victor, thanks for reaching out about the GoPro HERO. If ambient temperature drops below 20°c or 68°f it will not work. Yes, you can use a GoPro HERO to take pictures of the Northern Lights. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

    submitted byRena - 2 years ago
    Target staff support
  • A: GoPro doesn't have a formal low-temperature rating for our cameras or accessories, and there are reports of customers using our cameras in some pretty extreme conditions. If you're in extremely cold temperatures, you will want to try to keep the battery warm to prevent some power drain that cold temperatures can cause. If you can keep the HERO in a pocket inside your jacket where your body heat can keep it warmer between shots, that's a great option. Then, pull the camera out when you're ready to shoot. When the camera is on, it will generate some heat, which will help extend the battery life when shooting in colder temperatures.

Q: Does it have time lapse feature?

submitted by FaithMcC - 5 months ago
  • A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about GoPro HERO Based on reports from 2024 and 2025, the entry-level GoPro HERO (4K)—the small, ultra-lightweight model released in 2024—does not feature built-in time-lapse modes. While it shoots 4K video, it lacks the dedicated Time Lapse Video, Time Lapse Photo, and Night Lapse modes found on higher-end models like the HERO12 or HERO13 Black If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

Q: Is this capable of videoing an hour and 45 minutes continually?

submitted by Taylor - 7 months ago
  • A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about the GoPro HERO Yes, a GoPro HERO can record for 1 hour 45 minutes (105 minutes) — but it depends on the model and how it’s powered. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day between 7 am and 11 pm CST.

Q: I saw something about duration. Can the video be set so pushing the shutter button will automatically video for 30 or 60 seconds?

submitted by bob - 9 months ago
  • A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about GoPro HERO Yes, this feature exists on most modern GoPros, and it is called Duration Capture. It allows you to set a specific "timer" for how long the camera should record before it automatically stops and saves the file. This is perfect if you want to capture a quick 30-second burst of action without having to remember to hit the button again to stop. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

    Average

    Picture quality is good but to use the camera is glitchy and buggy, set up was a nightmare and the battery life is very poor, had a good 40mins out of it without even filming. Reverted to my Hero 7 which is still going strong and out doing a brand new camera.

    Small camera with a big upside

    Great camera in a small package. We race go karts and it is perfect. Video quality and ease of use is great. The Quik app is great to edit videos and control the camera.

    Could not connect

    I could not connect to my go pro. It kept wanting update. The update looked like it was going well, but then it would fail everytime. I had to send it back.

    Cute little baby camera

    even though it’s tiny it was easy to hold and handle the video quality is surprisingly good only thing is audio but i used it underwater so that’s a given it’s going to be not the greatest.

    Not user friendly

    Gets hot to the touch when plugged in. Takes forever to download 10 minutes of video to cloud. Takes forever to charge. Has trouble finding Quik. Simple would be nice. I’m using recreationally for biking.

    Great for shorter, quick action shots

    Overall, skip this camera, the lack of a linear shot option was rather disappointing. Its great for biking footage, but I wouldn't use it for anything else.

    GoPro Hero review

    As a birthday gift for my son he ended up having the same problem as all the reviews I read. A difficult set up and I thought this was an expensive item for what it was to begin with and it did not work as it was designed to do. Disappointed. Retuned item.

    Bad entry level action camera. Dont waste time

    This camera stopped working after one use. It Would not stay powered on or record even though had full charge. It would not reset per troubleshooting guide. Battery lasted about 15 minutes before it runs out. The battery is built in so not swappable. Also not good for capturing details that are not close up.

    We bought this GoPro as a Christmas present for our daughter, who loves to fish. She took it out over the holidays and found out that the GoPro has a very short battery life (less than 90 mins). And when she tried to upload the video, it took so long the camera got hot and shut off. We are hoping the upload issue was because of the wi-fi and will try again. But, unfortunately, due to the low battery life, I would not recommend buying.

    Great camera, horrible reliability

    I got this GoPro hero for skiing. I had a GoPro 3, years ago and loved it. So now that I am older, I wanted to do GoPro videos again. I bought this and it mounts to my helmet very easily but the software for GoPro is absolutely horrible. I just finished an out west ski trip. The first day I had to factory reset the GoPro because it won’t connect to my phone after resetting the network setting multiple times. Once it reset and connected, I tried updating the software to prevent that problem, but it took 10 tries because it kept failing. I then used it for the whole day and it was great and I loved it. I charged it overnight using the same charger I used to charge my phone the previous day. When I woke up, it still said 0%. I then had to factory reset the GoPro again in order for it to charge, but I wasn’t able to bring it out since it’s still had 0% charge. And then the second day halfway through the day it jumped from 50% to zero just sitting in my pocket. When I got back, I tried to charge it and it again required me to factory reset the GoPro. In all I’ve had to factory reset the GoPro three times in a two day span. Great camera, but the reliability is absolutely horrible so unfortunately, I would not recommend it
