The Hero 9 camera is one of the most powerful GoPro models when it comes to battery life. It can be used for up to 2 hours before needing a charge. The 1720 mAh battery life makes this possible while also providing great quality when recording in 4K video.
HERO10 Black & HERO9 Black are rugged and waterproof right out of the box, but this housing handles anything you can throw at it. It protects from dirt and flying debris, and it's waterproof down to 196ft (60m) for deep-water diving.
Yes, so long as all camera doors are properly closed, the HERO9 Black is waterproof down to 10m (33ft) without housing.
GoPro has announced new advanced features for its cameras at CES 2021 under its GoPro Labs special firmware program. The update will bring new features to HERO9 Black, HERO8 Black, HERO7 Black, and the GoPro MAX.
Recent models like the HERO9 and HERO8 cameras have had a zoom feature that works in video and photo modes. So, technically, yes, you can zoom in on a GoPro.
The battery life on GoPros isn't as good as many compact cameras (although GoPro has made good headway on that with the HERO9 Black with its significantly larger battery). And there's no control over focus or (real) zoom. So you can shoot photos in places that most cameras can't.
If you're wondering whether you can zoom in/out on a GoPro, the quick answer is YES! The recent models, like the GoPro Hero 9 Black and the GoPro Hero 8 Black have a zoom function for both video and photo modes.
Your GoPro won't charge while it's recording. However if you remove the battery and hook it up to an external power supply, then your GoPro should keep running without powering off.
If you want to keep your GoPro going all day you'll need more than one battery. Charge up a few extra batteries the night before. The same battery works in Hero7 Black, Hero6 Black and Hero5 Black. But, remember that you can't use Hero4 batteries in Hero5 cameras (or newer) and vise-versa.
