High-Performance Video Modes and Camera
Temperatures
The HERO4 Black features unique high-performance video modes:
4K30/24, 4K24 SuperView, 2.7K48/50, 2.7K30 SuperView, 2.7K 4:3,
1440p80, 1080p120/90, 960p120 and 720p120. When using these
video modes, it is normal for the camera to become warm and use
more power.
Using these high-performance modes in higher temperatures
decreases camera recording time. In addition, lack of airflow around
the camera, using the camera with the GoPro App, or in combination
with BacPac accessories further increases camera temperature and
power consumption, and decreases camera recording time.
If the camera gets too hot, a message appears on the screen
indicating that the camera is shutting down. The camera stops
recording, saves your video, disconnects from the GoPro App,
and powers off. If this happens, let your camera sit and cool before
attempting to use it again.
For extended recording time in high-performance video modes,
capture shorter video clips when in stationary use, and/or limit your
use of features that increase power consumption, such as the GoPro
App or BacPac accessories. To control your camera remotely at higher
temperatures, use the GoPro remote instead of the GoPro App.
