- There is a new feature on the GoPro Hero 12 Black that makes it possible to capture even better time lapses using the manual, photo mode method. In this video I explain this feature, what it means, and how to use it combined with the other settings for best results.

Best action camera videos thank you , love my gopro hate all these haters as this camera is very capable camera and never over heated once .
I appreciate it. Yes, I am very happy with the GoPros I have owned, including this one.
Great video u always give so much info but what if u dont have any of the lens and ur only using quick app. Is the gopro even good by itself?
Great Info, Thanks!
You bet!
Thank you, this was driving me crazy. I hope they update this so you can set shutter speed on timelapse mode
Absolutely. I’d like to see GoPro expand the control that can be had over these settings.
Thanks , I was going the return my GoPro purchase.
You’re welcome.
This is great. Just one question, after all the settings changed, either missed it or didn't understand but how do you then set UP the time lapse. I was playing with the night time lapse and it's confusing so I thought I'd try your method. The night time laps throws me off because I'd set it at 4 seconds and 15 minutes long yet it says the entire thing would amount to 3 seconds. Scratching my head. FYI - I want to film the eclipse. Thanks ahead for pointers.
Nice job - good luck
Thank you
I'd really like to see shutter speed control between 1/125 and 2 seconds. As far as I've seen in time lapse modes the lowest you can go is 1/125 in photo or Timelapse modes, or in "Night Time Lapse" you can do 2+ seconds. I prefer having some blur in time lapses, so I gravitate towards slower shutter, but a 1/2 or 1/4 second would be ideal for a lot of situations. Why not allow this, Go Pro??
Yes, the slower shutter speeds are great for motion blur and smoothness in a time lapse. I hope to see GoPro add more options for the slower shutter speeds in more photo/time lapse modes where this is advantageous.
Hey I posted this comment on a video you made about exposure lock but it's more about using shutter speed + ND filters to eliminate flashing on long time lapses: After watching your EXCELLENT videos, I upgraded to the 12 (now have several) to use ND filters + Shutter speed in Photo mode to eliminate flashing on sunsets/rises. Did a test yesterday, looks AMAZING, but still got flashing as the sun was almost gone. Would exposure lock fix that? If I am setting shutter speed, not sure if exposure lock would do anything?
Thanks, I responded on your other comment, but short answer here in case it is helpful to anyone else is yes, exposure lock is helpful.
But was it possible to use static parameters in the night Timelapse for capturing a day Timelapse?
Great advice, thank you ! Though that means that you can’t make a continuous day to night or night to day timelapse, or can you ?
You’re welcome! You can still do a continuous day to night or continuous night to day time lapse, but for doing that I recommend using time lapse mode. You’d keep the shutter set to Auto and want to do an interval around 15s-30s to enable the camera to slow the shutter speed enough for the proper night time exposure portion of the time lapse.
Sorry I missed your answer ! Thanks for the tip. The ideal would be to set the shutter speed and to be able to change it during the time-lapse, like with a traditional camera, but I don't see a way to do that. GoPro Labs maybe ? @@GreatDayForAHike
@Crotoua GoPro Labs does have some specific QR codes that pertain to time lapses and could be useful for what you want to do.
OK thanks, I'll investigate that !@@GreatDayForAHike
Nice video mate. But why the aperture number of my GoPro 12 shown in lightroom is f2.5? Also, it drives me crazy as it can only set the lowest shutter speed at 1/125s, but if you choose auto shutter speed in photo mode, Hero 12 has the ability to use much slower shutter speed (I've seen 1/8s or 1/45s in lightroom). Any workaround to have more controlled shutter speed like the way Action 4 does?
With the aperture value it’s possible there is some type of error with the read-out of data between the GoPro files and Lightroom.
Yes I know what you mean with the shutter value. I wish GoPro would enable the ability to adjust it further and go slower! When I last checked I didn’t see a QR code yet that would enable more manual control for this. I was hopeful this would be added with the GoPro Labs firmware as an option. I’ll continue to keep an eye on this and see if it gets added. I don’t see why it couldn’t be done from a technical standpoint so hopefully GoPro will consider enabling this.
@@GreatDayForAHike the aperture of the HERO12 Black is indeed F/2.5. That’s been the aperture since the HERO9 Black.
I appreciate you clarifying and I have noted this.
It's bad on GoPro's part that they didn't introduce this option even to GP11, which is still on sale.
Yes, would be nice to have it available on other models but maybe there is some internal limitation. I wouldn’t expect there is though.
For someone looking to get a GoPro just to shoot time lapses. Is it worth getting the 12 or should I look for the earlier models like the 11 or 10 for a discounted price? I’m looking to time lapse monsoon thunderstorms in the desert SW.
You can get great results with the 10 and 11 as well. I do recommend the ND filter kit so you can force the GoPro to use slower shutter speeds. This will give you even better results.
@@GreatDayForAHike is there a ND filter you would recommend for capturing thunderstorms and lightning during the night and day?
@firevalleyphoto During the day an ND8 or ND16 would probably work well since the sky tends to get pretty dark when a thunderstorm hits. At night time an ND filter is likely not necessary but any lighting at night will overexpose the footage if the ISO and shutter speed are not low enough.
awesome! can you please share the same for Osmo action 4 as well?
Thanks. Yes I can.
@@GreatDayForAHike thank you so much,
I'll be waiting for that one . 👍🏻👍🏻
Subbed for your positive attitude.
Keep growing

How is going to photo mode going to help you if your doing a video time lapse. Why can't you do this from the time lapse settings ?
The individual photos are turned into a time lapse video after mass editing these. GoPro does not make all of these same specific choices available in the time lapse mode.
@@GreatDayForAHike how to shoot? From timelapase photo mode or photo mode?
You can use either mode. It depends on what options you want available to customize for your time lapse. Each offers different options.
My gopro hero 12 doesn't do this. Somebody tell me why
Make sure you have the Pro mode enabled and that you are on the latest firmware update.
Is there a portrait timelapse?
Yes, the best way to do this would be to mount your GoPro vertically. Then you can still get the full resolution.
@@GreatDayForAHike mount vertically while in 16:9 aspect ratio?
@patrickangelo66 Yes, that should work well.
@@GreatDayForAHike i need to zoom in the video when posting in facebook story 😅
Funny - I need a ghost to appear -
Thanks sss sssss
You’re welcome
Why you keep saying Hero 12 BLACK? There is no other Hero 12 besides the black!
😂 Valid, but that is the full name of the camera. I miss the days when the GoPro models were white, silver, and black some years. I’ll work on shortening that to Hero 12 for future videos.
