What are the best settings for GoPro HERO3?

The best settings for the GoPro HERO3 depend on the specific situation and what you are trying to capture. However, here are some recommended settings to start with:
1. Resolution: Set it as high as possible for better video quality. The GoPro HERO3 is capable of shooting up to 4K video, so if your device supports it, choose that resolution. Otherwise, 1080p at 60fps is a good option for most situations.
2. Field of View (FOV): Wide is the default option, and it captures a wider perspective. However, if you want a more zoomed-in view, you can choose Medium or Narrow.
3. Frame Rate: Higher frame rates provide smoother video playback. For standard video, 30fps is recommended. If you're planning to slow down the footage or capture fast action, 60fps or even 120fps can be suitable.
4. ProTune: Turn ProTune on if you want more control over the camera settings. It allows you to adjust settings like ISO, White Balance, Color, and more in the post-processing phase.
5. ISO: Keep the ISO as low as possible to reduce noise in the footage. Use a higher ISO only in low-light conditions where you need more sensitivity.
6. White Balance: Adjust the white balance according to the lighting conditions to ensure accurate color reproduction. You can select Auto WB or manually set it based on the environment (e.g., Sunny, Cloudy, etc.).
7. Exposure Value (EV): Use the EV compensation to adjust the overall brightness. Start with 0 EV and modify it as needed based on the situation.
8. ProTune Sharpness: Set the sharpness to Low or Medium for a more natural and less processed look. High can make the footage look oversharpened.
Remember, these settings are general guidelines, and you may need to adjust them based on the specific scene or your personal preference. Experimentation and testing in different scenarios will help you find the best settings for your needs.
