GoPro settings and notes

[ Updated 02-25-23 | Created 02-25-23 ]

Helmet/hat cam POV

• Capture general view
• Capture others
• Not great for capturing first-person action sports (ski/cycling)

Lenses

16:9, 5.3K, 24FPS (30 may have been a better choice)

• Linear - a little too cropped for my liking
• Wide - Slight distortion, but doesn’t look unnatural
• SuperView - Too much distortion (ex. passing skiiers)
• HyperView - Not going to even bother trying

16:9 vs 8:7 - undecided for this angle. Will test more.

Chest

• Capture first-person action sports
• Great for sports (shows handlebars when cycling, skis/arms/poles when skiing, etc)
