GoPro Hero 6 settings [ New ]

[mmjv]

Hi guys

I'm having some troubles with the Hero 6.
Video mode; When I turn on protune, auto low light is blocked (on the Hero 5 is it possible to use thos together).

Photo mode; when auto HDR is turned on, EV is blocked (I assume that that's normal?).

Hi @mmjv,

Sorry I just forgot the exact settings earlier because what I do in lowlight is I bump up the ISO up to 1600 and 30FPS. 

Anyway if you want to use low light.

Try to turn off your image stabilization. 
On HERO5 and HERO6 it will only work for 30FPS to 120. 


Also if you're shooting in low light situation it would be best to use 30 or 24FPS instead for best result.

Whats your FPS setting? 

[mmjv]

60 fps often, it also doesn't work if I change it to 30fps

Hi @mmjv,

When you turn protune on you will have full manual control on your camera. 
And that will not work together with AUTO settings of Auto low light settings. 

Just like other camera. 

Protune is like the manual mode for some DSLR's

And why does protune work with auto lowlight on the Hero 5?

Why is it different on the Hero 5 Black?

Thanks a lot, that's the issue...
ISO was set on max 800, changed it to 1600 and it works!

Thanks again!

Have a nice day!
