Taking Photos
Your GoPro can take traditional, 360, and panoramic photos. Simply
choose the type of photo you want, and press the Shutter button
.
All HERO mode shots are captured at 5.5MP. 360 photos are captured
at 16.6MP.
PHOTO
Use this mode to take a single photo in either HERO or 360 mode.
You can also press and hold the Shutter button
in HERO mode
to take a continuous series photos at a rate of 3 or 30 per second
(depending on lighting conditions).
POWERPANO
PowerPano takes incredible 270
°
distortion-free panoramic photos
without having to scan the horizon. Hold MAX horizontally for traditional
panoramic photos, or rotate it to portrait orientation for amazing extra-tall
shots. All PowerPano photos are captured at 6.2MP. Horizon Leveling is
on by default.
Heads Up:
PowerPano uses both lenses to take the shot, no matter
whether your subject is front of or behind your camera. Make sure both
lenses are uncovered.
PRO TIP:
Keep your camera level with the horizon to minimize distortion
when taking a PowerPano shot.
