Reha - what if I don't have much capability to "clean up" in "post production"? I use only iMovie and I'm super limited. What low light settings, like night shots, are best for that instance?
Sorry Im asking this on an old video but it applies specifically to a Hero 8 Black..... Im trying to get video of some strange lights flying around in the night sky. Most are no brighter than the stars are but occasionally a little brighter. I cant even seem to get the stars in my videos with the auto low light function. Where the gopro is getting setup is very rural so other than a full moon tonight theres no other light sources. What settings should I use to capture this? I really want to document this but its been very difficult to get video.
Such helpful videos! Regarding the Bit Rate, why does the GoPro note that this can (should?) only be “high” for 2.7k and up, and why are we setting it as “high” for 1080p? Is it doing something even with the lower resolution? Thank you!
The Billboard signs are too tough. Shooting in Las Vegas at night was challenging to say the least. I see they are blown out here too. They had one Google sign that was ridiculously Sharp but i could not do it justice !!
It's very helpful for new user of go pro 8 like me. Thank you so much. Sure I will subscribe coz you're channel will help me to set my go pro accordingly.
Does the hero 7 silver have these settings? I tried looking for them but can’t find them. I’m new to the go pro family. For Some reason my footage from my go pro has a lot of noise in it. Please help
I'm having a heck of a time with my GoPro Hero 8. I am videoing from POV and working with my hands indoors and the items in my fingers are blurry. I've watched videos from people using their GoPro the same way and whatever they are holding in their fingers is clear as can be. I followed your directions, but to no avail. Whatever I'm holding in my fingers is blurry, just zero detail to the item. Do I need some sort of lens magnifier for my Hero 8 to fix this since this camera does not focus? Please help.
This is very valuable information to have. I've seen other reviews showing how bad the gopro 8 is compared to the gopro 7 simply because they did not choose manual setting. Auto settings can sometimes really mess up your shots. Your example, shown here, eliminates that. Thank you for this tutorial.
Love this video! Fantastic examples and having the settings displayed in the top left corner made it very easy to follow along. Will definitely be using these settings for my hero8 black!
I got one because it was cheaper then the 9 or 10, I plan on using it for low light air soft, idk how well it will do in mood lighting, but we'll find out! If I don't like it, I can always return it. Hopfully it can keep up with the action.
I bought a GoPro HERO9, I was new to Gopro so I didn't know about protune and I learned a lot from this video. Thanks. And thank you. Doesn't the HERO9 have a Low LIGHT setting? It didn't show up on the menu.
hello can you help me ? I have hero 8 and is absolute garbage image on autumn. I did all from the video when i hold camera in hand and dont do any shaky movements its absolute fine. But i ride on bike and low light start around 16:00+ and i have rly bad footage. What to do if i want clear image with decent stabilization?
Thanks man! I appreciate the in depth video! I recently got the hero 8 black and have been shooting mostly in dark scenes and in flat. This should help greatly! Check out my channel @Catfish KC and let me know what you think of the latest vid. It was dark and I spent a lot of time color grading and it could be better. The new settings should help! Thanks for these tips!
Thank you very much for a great tutorial on gopro8. That's out of your own great experienced and willing to share it with others that need it. I'm a beginner of gopro8 user and would love to have more live tutorials as you have done to aid others like me that needs more exposure in order to have better video clips in the future. Tqvm.
This really helps and explains a lot of things I had questions about. However i am currently shooting in a man made cave system and there are extremely dark areas and light areas. I am going in and out of both so all of this is very tricky. If you have any advice on how to handle this fluctuation in light it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you Reha! These GP-H8 default settings vids and the straight forward explanations helped me (a new Go Pro owner) a BIG lot. Now after the basics worked out I at least have a base to start experimenting from :)
Thank you for your very thorough and informative explanations. Just one question please, would the same settings for low light apply for sunrise and sunset?
Thank you so much for this, Reha! At first, I chose native because it looked better in the preview, but you were right about 4000K. I appreciate your relaxed and organized style of presenting! All the best!
Thanks this is what I use for Christmas Light viewing while driving: 4K 24fps, Shutter 1/48th, Bit Rate Hight, EV Comp c0, ISO MIN 100, ISO MAX 1600, WB3200, Sharpness Low, GOPRO Color and Stabilization boast enabled.
Hey u use the go pro app u can control it from ur phone or iPad hope that’s helpful but that’s what I’ve been using as it gives u a view of what’s being recorded too
Honestly, the settings he suggests - 99% of the people would accept right out of the camera and most people viewing personal videos from their friends or loved ones would be extremely happy with these results and most would only care about contents only.
