Looking for the internal lens assembly. I have it completely apart.

I smashed the internal lens of my go pro session 4. I have taken it apart and don't know where to purchase the lens assembly. I figured the lens assembly and sensor will need to be purchased together because the lens is glued into the assembly probably for focusing. I was able to get it screwed out but figure there will be no way to refocus it with a new replacement....

I was wondering also if one of the two will work since the sensor size is supposed to be the same:

I am about to receive a cracked lens Hero Session and will followup with what I find.

You should be able to refocus by using a calibration target to make sure image lens is screwed to correct position for proper focus, then maybe hot glue in place:

So, were you able to replace the lens?

crwdns2934271:0crwdnd2934271:0crwdne2934271:0

Yes, in regards to the outer lens. No, wasn't required regarding the inner from what inspection I've performed so far.

I found the outer lens destroyed and the inner lens wasn't in as bad of shape as the listing noted. I replaced the outer lens, invested in a aluminum 52mm lens adapter, a 52mm CPL and lens cover also. I haven't performed a thorough image analysis though.

Thankfully, from what I can tell that appears to be imperfect on the internal lens from a visual inspection... isn't observable in the images from a quick review.
