GoPro Hero7 Black Video Settings

I have been using the GoPro Hero7 Black action camera for many years, but I have used less than optimal settings. I am not planning to upgrade to GoPro Hero 9 yet (due to its much larger size).



After watching some videos, I have decided that these are the optimal settings to use:

  • Res: 4K | 24 FPS
  • FOV: Wide
  • Low Light: N/A
  • Stabilization: Auto
  • Protune: ON
  • Shutter: Auto
  • EV Comp: -1.0
  • White Balance: 5500K (for a typical day), 6000K for a Cloudy Day
  • ISO Min: 100
  • ISO Max: 3200 (to allow for stabilization to work)
  • Sharpness: Medium (use Low if post-processing will be used)
  • Color: Flat (Use GoPro for high-contrast scenes, like surfing)
  • Raw Audio: High (creates a separate audio file)
  • Mics: Stereo (do not use Wind as it's terrible)
Here is the video that explains the settings further:
