FRAMES PER SECOND (VIDEO)
Frames per second (fps) refers to the number of frames captured in each
second of video. A higher fps value (60 fps) is better at capturing fast-
action shots. You can also use high fps footage for slow-motion playback.
High Resolutions/High Frame Rates
Capturing high-resolution or high-fps video when it's warm outside can
cause your camera to heat up and use more power.
Lack of airflow and connecting to the GoPro app can cause your camera
to warm up even more, use even more power and shorten recording time.
If heat's a problem, try recording shorter videos. Also limit your use of
features that take a lot of power, such as the GoPro app.
Your camera will tell you if it needs to shut down and cool off. To learn
more, see Important Messages (page 75).
