GoPro Hero 9 Camera Settings

What’s up guys? It’s your ol’ pal Deluxe Chimp! In this video I’m out with my GoPro Hero 9 Black trying some camera settings. I never thought I’d mount this action camera to my helmet, but it was finally time to step it up. And what a big step it was from the Hero 4 Silver… I noticed something though. The footage with the Hero 9 Black still wasn’t to my liking. Let’s face it, right out of the box GoPro footage looks pretty blah (doesn’t matter what model you’re using) unless you do some fidgeting with the colors during the editing process. That takes up time. I want more time behind bars, not behind a computer monitor. The solution? Do some research. YouTube has tons of videos to watch on GoPro camera presets. Presets? Yeah, the Hero 9 Black has Standard, Activity, Cinematic and Slo-Mo presets you can customize. I found three that I really like for a starting point. They’re for no accessories or post production editing. I’ll share them below. Go ahead and let me know what you think. Leave a comment, thumbs up/down, feel free to share.
