GoPro DAY TO NIGHT (Holy Grail) Time Lapse BEST SETTINGS
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 авг 2024
- The GoPro action camera is a powerful tool for creating incredible time lapses. It's great for time lapses, night lapses, as well as day to night time lapses--also known as the holy grail. Day to night time lapses are one of the most challenging type of time lapses to shoot due to the constantly changing lighting.
In this video, I present the exact best settings that I use for creating day to night (holy grail) time lapses on the GoPro action camera. I also provide samples of day to night time lapses I have created using the GoPro action camera.

Sensationel perfekt explained. Even as a non native speaker, I could understand and recognize each word. One of the best tutorials on youtube, thank you !!!!
I appreciate your feedback and kind words!
I have recently purchased my first GoPro. I find you tutorials clear, concise and well explained. Settings (and reasons why you recommend them) are easy to follow. By far the most user friendly tutorials - thank you😊
I really appreciate your feedback and hope you enjoy your GoPro!
Thanks for this
Very well explained 💯
I appreciate it.
Finally a step-by-step guide. Man I could not find a video that explains it as well as this video did .
Thank you for your feedback and I’m glad you found this useful.
@@GreatDayForAHike going to film today using your settings. Do you have Instagram ? Can I tag you? Let me know
That’s great. I do not use Instagram at present but plan to do so in the near future. Thanks and I hope your project goes well.
Excellent instructional video! Well organized, good pace, and easy-going style. Nice job!
Thank you!
You just got yourself a sub! You are a genius! i've literally been racking my brain since 9am and watching different tutorials(because i did a night to sunrise lapse, and when it hit around 8am, its was so OVER EXPOSED the video just went white!) trying to figure out WHY!! I dont know which exact setting it was(i'm thinking setting the shutter to auto) that you set yours at..., but after watching your tutorial, its finally working!! THANKS!
Thank you for your feedback and support! Much appreciated and I hope you enjoy creating time lapses with your GoPro. It's one of my favorite use cases for a GoPro.
Thanks you so much your videos have been so helpful. I am brand new to to the world of action cameras and photography and I find the explanations about why we choose the settings we do very helpful. I have watched all your other videos and have learned so much. Keep them coming.
Thank you.
You’re welcome.
Thankyou sir. Great info that even I can follow.
You’re welcome. Glad you found it useful.
Gracias amigo, got what i wanted and threw u a sub bc why not
Thank you. I appreciate it.
Concise and right to the point, excellent instructional video. Thank you.
Thank you. Much appreciated!
Thank you very much for your great explanation and settings 👏🏆
You’re welcome!
another very informative and straightforward video, great job!
Thanks!
Thank you
You’re welcome.
Excellent, thorough, concise, well, explained. Should allow some success for noobs and some refinements for old timers.👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I appreciate your feedback.
awesome, thanx!
You’re welcome!
@@GreatDayForAHike I live at almost 10,000 feet in the Rockies. I used your settings with a large battery and shot a 15 hour video with a 3/4 moon. It came out awesome!
Wow, that sounds incredible!
Thanks a lot for making tutorials that even I understand 🙂
You’re welcome!
I have watched your video in preparation for taking a night to day timelapse of my own. I wanted to ask if you have recommendations for the length can I fit a full night to day timelapse in 5-10 seconds and how many pictures do I have to take for that matter or need more pictures resulting in a longer video? I´d like to know your toughts on that matter. Thanks for the video anyway. Cheers!
Thank you so much thumbs up 👍
You’re welcome and I appreciate your support!
I need to capture a 24 hour Timelapse of a 3D printer. Would I use those same settings?
Thank you, what hero did you use 9, 10? I did a few night time ones but I have not tried a day to night. Next on the list.
Very nice 👌
Thank you.
When night lapse mood on the screen turn black & it only shows "Keep camera still" but doesn't show preview. Please guide
This should be normal while in GoPro time lapse video mode. Mine does this as well.
can you do a day to night with the hero 9? I 'm looking to buy used, which is better 9 or 10
Yes you can. The Hero 10 is better than the Hero 9. The 10 is snappier and more responsive along with some other refinements.
Nice video, I like your style, cheers.
Has anyone experimented with shooting night lapses in cold conditions? Have you had any issues with frost forming on the lens as is typical for this kind of shooting? Does the camera produce considerably heat to keep the lens warm enough to keep frost forming? I'm going to try this the first time this weekend and see how it goes. Forecast says some -5....-8'C so not super cold but freezing still.
I have done some night lapses as cold as about 15 F before with the Hero 9. I did not have any frost issues on the lens with the 9. It was a dry, cold night. If there is precipitation falling or freezing fog then I would expect the camera to get icy but if it’s a cold, dry night I haven’t had any issues.
Thanks great tips . Do you have any tips for Timelapse sunsets with water or things like long grass that move in the wind . Sunsets look great but waves in water or long grass moving in the wind gives the video a choppy appearance . I’m just starting out so I was wondering if it would be better to do a full video and speed it up ? You would get huge files though .
3:10 are you sure about that? I'm pretty sure that a set interval of 15s will limit the shutter to 10s max
I had to set it to 20s to get 15s shutter in auto (with an Hero 8)
Great tutorial. Thanks! May i ask how much time it will consume capturing the whole Timelapse. How much space and battery i may need?
Great question. For day to night I generally like to start at least a few hours before sunset and then let it for for a least a few hours after sunrise. So generally at least 12 hours of filming.
I would recommend at least a 128GB MicroSD card and I also recommend an external power pack like this one I use to keep your GoPro powered and running: amzn.to/3mFIUbx
Thank you. Good lesson. I'm a shooting a time-lapse 2 hour day to fireworks tomorrow. At 15 secs how long would the final video be.
If you shot a time lapse for 2 hours at a 15 second interval your final time lapse should be about 16 seconds long at 30 frames per second.
@@GreatDayForAHike WOW, that's crazy only 16 secs. That's so little. I think it wuld be cool if my 2 hours would be like a minute long. If you don't mind all the questions what would I shoot at for about a minute if you can guess. Like 5 or 10 sec intervals. ?
A 5 second interval would get you to 48 seconds if you did that for 2 hours.
@@GreatDayForAHike I was just guessing from your first example and I chose the 5 sec. I got it right. LOL. Thanks very much for the help. Looking forward.
Great to hear!
Hiya. Shutter 15s and interval at 20 be a good tweak on you vid? (which is great thankyou)
I use a similar setting for exposure on my Sony camera.
Thanks for your feedback. I like those settings for a Sony camera with a much larger sensor. With the tiny sensors on something like a GoPro I find a bit longer shutter speed to work a bit better.
@@GreatDayForAHike so leave shutter on auto then ?
One could leave the shutter on Auto and still specify the interval. That is correct.
how long does the battery last if you try to let it run from sunset to sunrise? which size powerbank do you think is necessary?
The battery will last for a few hours. For the power bank I recommend at least 2000 mah. Thanks.
can you make a video explaining how to edit raw and then convert to video please, psd: you are the best bro!!
Yes, this one should be helpful. Technique #3 in this video is a demonstration of how to edit RAW and export to video. ruclips.net/video/3JQL1DwkEno/видео.html
awesome tutorial!! are these settings relevant for the hero 10 aswell items such as the colour and sharpness?
Thank you! Yes, these are relevant for the 10 as well.
@@GreatDayForAHike thanks heaps, Ive just noticed on all your other videos for the 10 you went natural on the gopro colour and low on the sharpness should i use them for this as well or go what in this video? thanks heaps again!
Yes with the 10 Natural and either low or medium sharpness will serve you best. Low is best with most low light situations.
thanks !
You’re welcome!
Do these settings still apply for the GoPro 10?
Great question. Yes, these sure do.
Are you using any nd filters when doing this? Great video by the way.
Great question. No ND filters. Just the stock GoPro Lens cover. Thank you!
Would these settings work for sunrise and sunset? I did a sunrise time lapse (didn't turn out super spectacular because there were zero clouds) but I started it early in the morning when it was still dark. There was a significant amount of noise when it was still dark, and even as it started getting light. From what I can remember I was using these settings - video, 0.5s interval, ISO Min 100, Iso Max 800, EV -0.5. Another video I watched said it's always a good idea to let your time lapses either start or end in the dark, but it seems this results in a lot of noise..
Great question. I created this video that is specific to sunrise and sunset settings that should be helpful for you. ruclips.net/video/Oe-mNM6z-BA/видео.html
He basically already gave you the answer in the video. Take that underexposed by a half stop off. Then, increase your interval from five to fifteen seconds. That will allow the shutter to stay open longer if needed during the dark instead of being limited to five seconds.
Thanks.. just subbed ;-)
You’re welcome and thank you for your support!
Hi! What would be your recommendation with settings for a GoPro 10 night lapse video of a downtown skyline? Coming from a rookie, I have amazing city views - day to night would help tremendously! I tried last night with the pretty moon, I didn't have a good setting for the exposure and didn't turn out. Thank you in for any help!
Great question. For a city skyline at night I recommend the following settings:
Shutter: 5 sec or 10 sec (depending upon brightness of city skyline)| WB: 3200K for cooler blue tones or 5500K for warmer yellow tones | Color: GoPro | ISO Min and Max: Both at either 400 or 800 (400 if close to skyline and bright, 800 if further away and not as bright). | Sharpness: Medium | EV: 0 | Interval: Auto
@@GreatDayForAHike Oh my gosh, thank you so much!! Thank you for being so thorough in the steps with the settings, I cannot wait to try your recommendations this weekend!!
You’re welcome! If you still don’t like you’re results or think they could be better I encourage you to try both options for some of those settings and see which you like best.
Which gopro are you showing all these settings on please?
This is the Hero 9.
@@GreatDayForAHike Thank you for the reply.
When filming just sunset (45 minutes before until 45 minutes after) is it best to use the Time Lapse mode or the Night Lapse Mode?
It is best to use time lapse mode. In this video I talk about the best settings for time lapses including sunsets. ruclips.net/video/SQSDasK7HoU/видео.html
@@GreatDayForAHike Thank you!
I am building a garage and I would like to set up a 6 day time lapse on a hero 10. I’m guessing that all of your tips apply?
Yes these settings and tips will apply other than perhaps the interval between shots needing to be longer since this is going to be up to 6 days long.
@@GreatDayForAHike thank you…. Will do that
Does these settings work from Night to Day as well?
what size sd card would you use for an all night night-day lapse
Great question. I recommend having at least 64GB if you’re going to do be doing photo mode. Those RAW and JPG files side by side can add up quickly.
@@GreatDayForAHike I'll be doing video format
If you’re doing video format, 32GB will be sufficient as long as the MicroSD card is fully empty or not too full.
For the timelapse in video mode is 1hour and 28 minutes sound right for a 128gb microsd?
To get a timelapse in video mode that long you would need a very short interval. As far as how much video footage can fit in a 128GB MicroSD card an hour and 28 minutes sounds about right.
@@GreatDayForAHike thanks 🙏🏻
Hello, how many hours did you record the video for getting that result?
I notice my Hero 9 heats up a little leaving it On for 30mins from time lapse, is this normal?
Also will it not over heat if you connect it to powerbank all day?
Great question. It is normal for the Hero 9 to get pretty warm when it’s being used constantly. I do recommend making sure you have the latest firmware running on the camera as this will optimize the cooling performance.
I have left mine running for 36 hours before on a power bank and it had no issues. As long as you don’t have the camera in direct sunlight on a hot day it should stay cool enough to have no issues. I have not yet tested leaving the camera in sunlight all day on a hot day but I would expect that could create potentially get too warm for optimal performance.
It happens to me too. When I stop touching it and leave it charging, it’ll cool down.
Great video, Great Day For a Hike! Is there an email I can contact you guys at?
On your first suggestion (Still pictures) To all my knowledge (And this is ain't meniscal), the major or foremost advantage of RAW is that RAW has no WB. User sets it in post processing. So why you say chose RAW but keep the WB on 4000?
Yes, RAW can be set in post processing. However, I find it to be easier to edit all files more quickly in post processing when I set the files to a uniform WB. You can certainly set WB to anything you want and then edit in post though.
WB in RAW will be written to the metadata and will be used when rendering the image (the WB will be automatically applied) even though the actual RAW file itself will be at the camera’s native WB (7085K for GoPro Hero 9). You can of course edit this later but it might be more convenient to do it in camera. Having non set WB means that you will probably need to go to Lightroom, copy the WB on one image and then paste it on all the images.
Thanks for this helpful tip your provided. Very well stated.
Thanks for the video, but I think that for sky photography, where most of the image is flat, an high bitrate is exagerated.
You’re welcome. It depends on how you want to use the footage and how much detail you want in the footage. The higher bitrate allows for more detail. I like that higher detail in the clouds and on the ground, but yes, if you want less detail then you can do the standard bitrate.
And what's better? Photo or video mode?
If you want to edit and fine tune your finished product, the photo mode would give you the most control over this. If you don’t want to edit the finished product then the video mode will be easier. Photo mode has the potential to give you the best results.
Hope you see this. With the settings you recommend in which the interval is set and the speed is set to auto, the max ISO I can get (H9 and H10) is 800. You mention not to go above 800 because of noise. So this implies you can get higher ISOs on your Hero with this settings. Is this true? Interestingly if you set the interval to auto and set a speed, higher ISO are available. Interestingly part two, in Time-lapse (not Nightlapse) with the interval set and speed at auto, all ISO's are available. So do you have higher ISOs and if not do you have an idea what is going on? I just did a day to night to day Time-lapse with 5 sec, auto speed, iso 1600. Did not turn out well for the night stuff. The shutter speeds were too fast. In Nightlapse, shutter speeds can be close to 5 sec at night. So I guess the main thing that Nightlapse mode does is prioritize speed for max light capture. What do you think about that?
dave
I did a max of 800 ISO and that is why I did the night lapse mode since higher than 800 was irrelevant for my time lapse but yes you could use time lapse mode with the same settings and it would come out the same. The key is to have shutter set to auto and interval at least 10 seconds so that it captures enough light for the night part of it. I recommend 15 seconds as a good balance. Let me know if you have any questions.
@@GreatDayForAHike Thanks!!!! I think I will try the comparison test.
Itni derr kon sa gopro continue record krta h yar, hamara gorpo 1 ghante me garam hoke band ho jata h, kya majak chal rha h yar
How many GB of memory do you use?
I currently use a 128GB MicroSD card in my GoPro.
For a single day to night lapse with this shot in RAW and one photo every 15 seconds for around 12 hours I find this uses about 20-25GB of data. This is partly because the RAW setting also creates a corresponding JPG photo for each RAW photo.
why are you talking like a robot ?
That’s me.
