SuperPhoto offers two different options: HDR and AUTO. SuperPhoto takes the guesswork out of selecting the perfect photo settings and delivers a color-rich GoPro still photo every time. These pocketable cameras take incredible still photos, too! SuperPhoto was introduced to GoPro in 2018 on HERO7 Black, and it continues to be one of our favorite GoPro capture modes-because YES, GoPros do more than just take awesome videos.

Even on GoPros without a dedicated Night mode, you can achieve similar results by manually adjusting the camera’s shutter speed, frame rate, ISO setting and white balance.Today is World Photo Day, so we at GoPro thought what better way to celebrate than with a little tribute to one of our favorite photo modes-SuperPhoto. GoPros don’t have night vision of the kind you'll find in today's best night vision goggles, but the HERO 7 Black and newer have a dedicated Night mode that alters the camera's settings to allow you easily get optimal results in when shooting in conditions with minimal light.Īll if those cameras also have Night Lapse mode which allows you to create fixed position, time-lapse sequences at night. Unfortunately, you cannot add an external mic to the HERO 7 Silver or White, HERO 4 Session, 2018 HERO, 2014 HERO, or HERO+ LCD. For older cameras, you’ll have to try and get hold of the mini-USB version.

If you’ve got a HERO 8 Black or newer, the simplest way to boost your audio recording facilities is to add the dedicated GoPro Media Mod accessory which comes with a built-in directional microphone and an input for an external 3.5mm mic.įor the HERO Black 7 through the 5 Black, or HERO 5 Session, you’ll need GoPro’s Pro 3.5mm Mic Adaptor which allows you to connect an external mic via the camera’s USB-C port.

Do GoPros record sound?Īll GoPros record sound, but while their in-built mics are fine for picking up ambient sound to accompany your video footage, the quality isn’t that all that great. As well as being highly buoyant, the Floaty accessory is also bright orange to make it much easier to spot in the water. Fortunately, you can buy an accessory called Floaty, which attaches to GoPro frames and housings to act as a buoyancy aid for your camera. Make sure you keep a tight hold (or better still, ensure your GoPro is securely mounted to something) when in the water though, otherwise your camera will sink like a stone. Add a dive housing though and most models can operate at depths up to 60m (197ft). HERO cameras from the HERO 5 onwards (with the exception of the HERO 7 White) are all completely waterproof to depths up 10m (33ft) without the need for an additional housing.

You can find full instructions on exactly how to do this over on GoPro’s site (opens in new tab).

You can also use older HERO models, but set-up is a little more complex and you’ll need to shell out for a HDMI to Micro HDMI cable and a HDMI to USB converter.

Simply download the GoPro Webcam software to your desktop computer, connect your GoPro to your computer via the camera’s USB-C cable and it will default to webcam mode when switched on. It’s easy to set up the HERO 10 Black, H9 Black or H8 Black as a webcam. The Media Mod also comes with a directional microphone which will massively improve your GoPro’s audio recording quality – to be honest, we'd recommended this even with the newest H10. Our GoPro Media Mod review has all the details, but essentially this gadget attaches to your GoPro and allows you to fit an additional viewscreen called the GoPro Display Mod. While the HERO 8 Black doesn't come with a front-facing screen as standard, you can add one by purchasing the Media Mod accessory. Shoot with the rear-facing lens only and you’ll be able to frame yourself in shot via the touchscreen. Similarly, with lenses front and rear, the GoPro Max is also a great camera for vloggers. With a built-in front facing viewscreen as well as a rear touchscreen, the HERO 9 Black and HERO 10 Black are the best GoPros for vlogging as you can see exactly what's in shot while you’re in front of the camera – the latter being the preferable of the two, thanks to the upgraded chipset powering a smoother live preview.
