I stare in wonderment at folks paying for $150 replacement lenses that require you to take a blow torch (yes) or vice grips to your GoPro to get rid of fisheye.
At least if you're on Black, it's a feature.
Turn it off
H3B cannot capture in 2.7k Medium. That feature is only available on the H3B+

FYI it requires neither a blowtorch nor vice grips. The benefit is that it removes the fisheye without discarding a significant fraction of the sensor resolution.

About 4:30 into this one. Two sets of pliers are grappled on and used with a heat gun. Apparently others have used blow torches though. Whatever ya got handy I guess

I see - you assumed that because he used those in the video then they must be essential for the job. I used neither, so I know they are not.
damoncooper said:Correct, yeah. At $155 though I wonder if trading up to a GP3B+ might not make more sense?

I'm using a GP3B+.
The fisheye correction is in the GroPro Studio post processing software.tonydotigr said:Anyone know where the setting can be changed on a GoPro Hero 3+ Black? Is it on the camera or when connected with software?
damoncooper said:ChimayMan noted the 2.7k solution was only available on the GP3B+, so I was just pointing out that if considering a new lens for $155, considering a trade up might also make sense to consider.
I believe 2.7k Full FOV does use more sensor but the trade off is more work in post to kill props and landing gear potentially.

tom3holer said:Sar104,
You seem to have a good handle on the GoPro and if I may I have a question.
I am doing real estate photography and am looking for the best photo setting for my 3+ black. Have tried 14.4 along with stills and get 12mp stills which look good although they are 4X3.
Thought about 2.7 with protune on and then extract the frames I want and process then in PS Raw. Haven't tried it yet, perhaps later today.
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Tom
