GoPro Hero11 Black Mini is finally shipping after the original October release date was delayed.
The all-new Mini action cam ditches the screen of its bigger brother GoPro Hero 11 Black in order to keep the dimensions and weight down.
The firm said the more compact and flexible shooter is aimed at adventurers and athletes looking to shoot cutting edge point-of-view (POV) footage without carrying too much heft around.

Key features
GoPero Hero 11 Black Mini is super versatile, thanks to its tiny size and simple-to-operate, one-button, controls.
As you’d expect, video capture remains at the highest quality, delivering cinematic 5.3K video at 60 frames per second (fps), 4K at 120fps and 2.7K at 240fps. The camera also captures stills in 24.7MP resolution.
The Mini includes an Enduro Lithium Ion rechargeable battery.
The 1,500mAh capacity is lower than the bigger model but as there’s no screen to drain it the run time is similar.
However, you can’t swap the battery out when it’s depleted.
The slimmed-down gadget boasts the identical larger 8:7 camera sensor as the full-size Hero 11 Black.
Other features
Hero 11 Black Mini includes the firm's signature HyperSmooth 5.0 stabilisation and 10-bit colour depth.
It boasts a HyperView wide-angle lens which can deliver the widest angle 16:9 shot ever produced natively in a Hero camera.
The in-camera 360-degree Horizon Lock keeps your footage steady even if your camera rotates 360 degrees during clip capture.
Three new Night Effect Time Lapse presets - Star Trails, Light Painting and Vehicle Light Trails - make capturing pro-quality footage easy.
