Design and Size
The Hero 5 Session has a small and compact design, with dimensions of 1.5 x 1.5 inches. This makes it palm-sized and easy to fit into any pocket or bag. Its size is the perfect asset for those who want to carry it on their adventures. The camera is waterproof up to 9 meters without an additional case, making it perfect for exploring both on land and in water. Its sturdy construction also means it can take some hits without worry.

In terms of video quality, the Hero 5 Session offers stunningly sharp 4K footage with excellent dynamic range and vibrant colors. This makes it an excellent choice for capturing all your adventures with amazing clarity.
Stabilization
The Hero 5 Session also offers some of the best video stabilization on the market. GoPro's HyperSmooth frame-locking technology ensures that all video sequences are ultra-stable and sharp, regardless of the speed of your activities. This makes it a perfect camera for extreme sports and fast-paced activities.

What condition is the camera in?
Every camera that leaves Camera Market goes through a 28-point inspection protocol: shutter condition, autofocus accuracy, sensor integrity, seal tightness, electronic viewfinder calibration, original battery health, and eight further tests on connectivity and firmware.
The specific cosmetic condition (marks, scratches, signs of use) is documented in the actual photographs and in the technical table on the product page. We do not use catalogue images.
What is included in the purchase?
You receive the GoPro Hero 5 Session body with its original NP-FZ100 battery, BC-QZ1 charger, GOPRO shoulder strap, original box and printed manual. The 28-point inspection and the 6-month warranty are included in the price.
SD card not included. If you need additional accessories, browse our accessory selection.
What warranty does it have?
All cameras include 6 months of free warranty covering functional defects and technical failures.
You can extend the coverage from the warranty section on this same page:
- 12 months for €22,50 · single payment
- 24 months for €38,25 · single payment · recommended
We also offer 14-day returns with no questions asked. If you are not satisfied, full refund.
How long does shipping take?
Standard shipping to the EU in 4–5 business days with tracking number. For mainland Spain, express 24–48 h option available at checkout.
Technical packaging with custom-cut foam and tamper-evident seals. Transit insurance included.
Is it suitable for beginners?
Yes, without reservation. It has full automatic modes and eye-detection autofocus that works practically by itself, so you can start taking professional photos from day one.
When you grow, the manual controls and customisation curve are exactly what you would expect from a professional body. It is a camera you can learn with for years.
Why buy refurbished?
For three honest reasons: price (between 20 and 40% below new on high-end models), sustainability (keeping a body in circulation avoids manufacturing a new one and all its waste), and transparency: every unit has its own serial number, visible shutter count and inspection date.
Market depreciation does not affect optical or electronic performance. A GoPro Hero 5 Session with 12,000 shots takes exactly the same photos as one with 0.
