To learn about both of those cameras see my additional guides – HERO3+, HERO4, HERO4 SessionĪ few things need to be explained when talking about the technical aspects of video resolutions, framerates, and video quality. This specific guide was written for the HERO3 line of cameras, but many of the principles and ideas transfer up to the later models of HERO3+ and HERO4. Keep in mind this is written for the slightly technologically inclined. Hopefully I can break it down a bit and unshroud the mysteries of the modes. So you got a new GoPro HERO3 Black Edition! Luckily for you, GoPro has added about 137 different filming options so you’ll never really be sure if you’re using the right mode for the activity/film job.
