One simple question about the Lens mod 2. When you are filming in superwiev with the mod in 4k60 and stop recording and turn of the camera. Does it remember the settings to the next time or do I have to set it up again? Plan is to use it on my motorcycle as a fixed camera and don’t want to adjust settings every time?

I believe a nano coating could fix this, however, it had to be applied at production stage. Thanks again and if you know something new about this please let me know 🙏

I just purchased the GoPro Hero 12 and the wide angle 2.0 lens. In the video you never showed us how to remove the original lens, just adding the new one.

I own the 12 + lens mod 2.0 and it seems it's not possible to take complete advantage of GP-log when using the lens mod 2.0. Can you confirm this?

@martintang 9 ай бұрын

At the time I'm writing this comment, as a GoPro Hero 12 Black user with the Max Lens Mod 2.0, the Log and HDR options are no longer available. Another thing that not many people have noticed is that the vertical 9:16 mode (when enable Max Lens Mod 2.0) only supports 8-bit instead of 10-bit. Additionally, you'll lose the ability to output RAW for Max Photos, so you can only export JPEG. The workaround for me is adjusting the color to 'flat', so at least it will not be too saturated like the usual GoPro look and will provide a bit of flexibility for grading according to your own preferences.

@KaptainKlassic 9 ай бұрын

Can you still film in 4k 60 fps without the max lens mod 2.0 on the hero 12? Is the lens mod just for wide angle at 4k or is it required if you want true 4k 60 fps?

@JordanHetrick 9 ай бұрын

Yes, the Hero 12 can record in 4k or 5.3k @ 60 fps without the Max Lens Mod. The Max Lens Mod is only needed if you want to record extra wide angle shots, or if you want Horizon Lock with a wide angle lens. The Hero 12 has Horizon Lock built in, but it's only available with the Linear lens. I hope that helps!

GoPro made a lot of changes to the Hero 12 to reduce overheating. In my real world use out in the world, I never have overheating issues. But, if you were to set it flat on a desk or table in 80 degree heat at the highest video resolution (5.3k-60), it will overheat after about 17 minutes (from my tests). However, if you are recording long stints with no airflow around the camera, reduce the resolution to 4k @ 30 FPS and it should last a really long time before overheating.
