gbracing81 Posted June 11, 2012 Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 I got a Hero 2 last week and one of the features I want to utilize is the super slow motion recording. I want to point the camera at my rear tire and see how much wheel spin I have at the track. I have tried the WVGA-120, WVGA-60 and the 720-60 settings and none of them seem to be in slow motion let alone the super slow motion it says. I have a class 10 16GB memory card. Do I need to get a 32GB Sd? Or maybe I just need schooled on how to properly use this? Any help is greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco-REX Posted June 11, 2012 Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 I only have a Hero 1 so I'm not sure how it might be done in the camera itself. But you cold try stting it to the resolution setting with the highest frames per second. Then I'm sure there's software that can take a 60 or 120fps video and slow it down to 26fps.

If you're shooting at 60 fps, then you'll be able to put it in slow motion in post edit. When it records, it will get it in real time. You have to slow it down with post edit for slow motion. GoPro just recommends shooting in 60fps for slow motion capabilities. Make sense? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes sir it does. I was wondering if that was what I would have to do. You guys have been helpful. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
