Once again, thank you for putting HERO11 Black to the test! We're stoked you're impressed with the lowlight performance + we thank you for the helpful tips 👍
Thanks! We've emailed you with some questions, but havent heard back. Could someone from your team reach out to us, please? Geminiconnectdigital@gmail.com
I have purchased gopro 11 before some days after selling my 10, i have also used 9, there is no significant difference between these, gopro 11 also not good in low light, it also get hanged and not become back without set out battery for this it is so hard with media mode, gopro should rectify these problem as well give 3.5 mm jack for mic in his upcoming model than GOPRO will be winer of world 🌎
The Hero 11 is quite a jump from the Hero 9. I'm a big fan of the versatility of this camera and new features like 10-bit colour. ruclips.net/video/-4tf8mffvyw/видео.html
Make a camera with 10-bit 4:2:2 colours and a 1" sensor.
did you really watch his video - it clearly shows 11 is WORSE in lowlight than 10! It just gives an overall darker picture that deceives one into thinking its cleaner. But if you bring exposure up to match hero 10 level, you'll get the same mush. Also in 11, in lowlight sometimes his face was completely consumed by darkness, while hero 10 performed better keeping face visible. How on Earth can anybody call that "an improved" performance?
Hero 11 Go Pro doesn't perform well in low light based on my multiple tests. The noise and graininess is so bad you cannot consider it for professional footage. The image stabilization in low light is average. It is being sold on massive hype when it comes to night or low light photography, and since it's not on amazon for sale, giving authentic reviews on all aspects becomes difficult. The only good footage you get is on natural daylight outdoors.
Most of the action happens under brightly lit conditions. Gopro videos showcase some of the best stuff, under good lighting. If that’s marketing gimmicks then good for them! I love my Gopro and I get fantastic shots from it.
I start this video off by saying all action cameras are not meant to shoot in low light. However, there are ways to get decent footage. Re: GoPro Image stabilization, I challenge you to name another compact sub $500 camera with better built-in stabilization.
The daylight performance and stabilisation is excellent. My comment is specific to low light, in room, evening and night performance when it comes to image and video quality and image stabilisation. Your video makes it clear and proves the quality you get. Just take a look at your video that's shot in low light. Also by your challenge, you seem to be justifying poor quality for anything under $500 and that was not my intention as I do like Go Pro 11 for daylight and action shots. Since you specifically asked DJI OSMO Action latest model is a great alternative too.
Yes and that is where i only uae it and have my main a7siii for low light oh ye
Which camera should I get for my bike rides at night? Doesn't look good at all.
Thank you for the review. I just got my Hero 11 black yesterday and going through their setup. I really appreciate the tip about the gimbal.
I will be ordering that today
Very nice explanation....I want to know which is better if we compare Go pro11 and iPhone13/14.....which one is better for travel vlogging.....waiting for your gentle reply😊
I am learning so much from your videos! Thank you so much. I just got a new GoPro 11 after sitting on a Hero Session 4 since 2015. I'm finally trying to capture more video of my active cycling life.
Precise and very informative. Thank you Gemini :)
The ISO comparison at 2:50-
Well then this begs the obvious question- what if you set the 10’s max ISO to 1600? Or 800? That would darken up your image, probably something comparable to the 11 on the other side of the screen. And it would help to eliminate some of the noise.
But, would that screw with the shutter speed? Would the image be useable?
Thanks for making this video and solution to overcome the low-light flaw. It seems you've answered my question about how this camera performs under low-light conditions.
Well, it seems it's still best to use a mechanical gimbal attached to it; or a camera with a built-in gimbal by itself, the DJI Pocket 2 for instance.
I don’t even think about using my action cameras in low light situations But after watching this video I will have reconsider that. Great video, and thanks for sharing.
I think the gopro 11 looks much better. I sometimes want to take great atmospheric shots with my smartphone at night (Samsung s10) but by default it ruins those atmospheres by making the shot look way too bright, ruining the atmosphere. Glad to see the gopro 11 fixes that gimmicky BS. with 10 bit color brightness can be easily adjusted in post anyway I guess. Autoboost seems like a great feature too. I just upgraded from the gopro 10, mostly for the full frame sensor, but good to see it fares better at this too.
I recognized the park in the beginning of the video. We live in the same town :D Thanks for these gopro tips.
Hello!
Big GoPro fan, i use the 7, 10 and 11 to shoot my diecast races.
I dig your comparison !
And you have a new subscriber!
Chely. 😁👍😘
you should set iso, shoter speed and Waith balance in both model manual then caomper.
I think that’s true for mirrorless cameras and DSLRs, but I find that I get better results with action cameras if I leave the settings on auto.
New GoPro owner, this is super duper helpful thanks a ton!
I watched this video due to some points I found on my hero 11. What bothered me the most were the blurry scenes in low light. See in this video at 5:18, the tree that appears in the center, has a reasonable definition in the illuminated parts, but is completely blurred in the low light parts.
You are awesome thank you for the hero 11 and 10 comparison I was having a rough time with my hero 10 and 11 night settings for my riding vids.
Hi. I recently sold my hero9 in bundle which inluded the inkee plus gimbal. I didn't like the balancing very much on the gimbal. Did you use the quick release mount on gimbal or do you still need to balance each use? Thanks ps now i have to go buy the gimbal again lol.
Awesome Video and New Subscriber!
This will help me a lot especially late car shows and events!
The inkee gimbal is just class! Did you try low light filming in the gimbal with hupersmooth turned off? Not done it myself but I’ve been told it removes all the jitter from the footage, gives you full frame and crisper footage
This was a great video and I think I’ll be using a gimbal for night videos. Thanks for your test!
That's really cool you guys are from the PNW . My wife and I live in Renton and work in Bellevue . I've watched several of your videos and you're doing a great Job . Very informative . I have the Gopro 10 and 11 . Keep up the good work . Thanks .
Nice, we love Gene Coulon Park and the Renton Highlands 👌
Would be very interested in what you'd suggest for recording indoors at a small music venue. Either GoPro (I've the GoPro 7 black), the DJI pocket which I have also but I'd love a decent indoor set up. What would you recommend? Thanks.
Thanks! That was really helpful!
I have the 10, the 11 was replaced with the 12. The 12 needs to improve low light issue before I buy another. Maybe the 13 will have a larger image sensor and then maybe the video HyperSmooth stabilization will work in low light with less video noise. When I say 'low light' I'm talking about riding dark roads and trails, the only light most of the time is my bike light.
Stumbled across this channell... love this review ... thanks, awesome :)
Thanks for Sharing the comparison, I bought Dji Pocket 2 after watching your video and now thinking to add Hero 11, your videos helps.
Ok so I shoot church videos it’s a little dark…it’s on a stand so the settings in the video perfect for that? 100, 3200??? Or is there a better setting? Great video though!
Great video! Can’t wait until my 11 arrives this week to add to my 9.
Anti-flickering 60Hz -> 50Hz in camera preferences
hypersmooth off
4k 25fps
Shutter 1/100
ISO minimum 800 maximum 1600
10bit on
High clarity
If you set it up,
Wouldn't that be the best low light condition ?
Thank you very much. Your video explains lot of my problems.
GoPro 11 hasn't bigger sensor. It's sensor is taller. This makes difference. The pixel size is the same in both models.
Yes, the wider FOV is due to Autoboost. Wen there's low motion the FOV will go wider than the normal HyperSmooth on FOV.
Nice Explained thanks 👍
thank you for the review question: Can the gopro 11 be used for indoor talking videos? my main use is indoor and some outdoor activities 70% & 30%.
night high speed sport using an external light, most of the background being 2-5 metres away? middle of the night? any suggestions? you didn't get into i've seen you can change the exposure
I shoot a lot in low light under water and on my old Hero 7 I've used ISO 100/800 to reduce graininess and because I like the dark to be dark to give emphasis to the areas illuminated by my light. But now I have a Hero 11 I'll certainly try the ISO Auto max.
How did the Hero 11 compare in your underwater shots?
@@fishontv6834 It's still not the best in low light and I've stayed with limiting the ISO manually. Example here: ruclips.net/video/PwU8gLpfBMc/видео.html
Great video!
Amazing video can you compare it to the DJI action 3
I won 🙌
Hi Susie, I'm looking for the very best low light video camera that is portable like the GoPro. Any recommendations? I will be filming vertical, airplanes etc. at night. Bellow 10,000'.
Thanks.
Off to Bali in a couple of months. I am new to GoPro cameras and will be taking delivery of a Hero 11 in days. One of the things I want to do in Bali is to capture the beautiful daily sunrises and sunsets. I have on order a Inkee Falcon Plus gimbal which should be arriving shortly also. If there is any advice it would be greatly appreciated, camera settings, light attachments yes or no plus, if recommended which light attachment and finally lens filters?
Hi, can you recommend me some gimbals for the Hero 9/10 for low light shooting? I found that the Hero 9 performs better than the 10 in low light. The image is less grainy. I shoot a lot while walking and when it's not bright enough the hypersmooth just ruins the shoot. The object seems like out of focus.
good morning. I bought a gopro 11 camera to record myself cooking. Turns out there is no preview while recording, is that correct? is it possible to change it somehow?
this helps me a lot. thanks :)
Great! 👍👍👍 One thing i missed: Hero11 without any stabilization but with the Gimbal. How looks the footage?
I use in my low light videos Hero 9 4K without stabi but in a gimbal.
And thanks for comparison.
Rad vid! Thank you!
Hello,
Do you think the gimbal will help in day time too?
What about the 12 or max for low light?
Nice job - good luck
after so many versions of this camera, low light was supposed to be at least 3 times better, maybe version 20 will achieve something usable :)
Lol, we can only hope! TBF this is a big improvement in low light compared to the Hero 2.
ISO max is the maximum ISO it will go to, but in between that it will switch automatically, so when you set it to 3200 max on both and you found the 11 looked darker and more true to life at around 3 minutes, most likely the 10 was at 3200 and the 11 probably at 1600
Great review. I was going to sell my Falcon Plus gimbal but I need to give it another shot in low light. NIce studio set up very clean, unlike mine hmmm
I just started using my gimbal again ever since finding out how much it impacts low light shooting. If only you could see what's behind the camera... 😅
Nice review, did 11 version is worth upgarde from 10.
Great video... Bellevue is lovely at night and yes... Seattle is just a bit sketch in some areas 😅😅.
We have the gopro8 which we never use as night which leads me to actually using our pixel 6 in a gimbal to get solid video. Still, we want an update on GoPro and this is a very positive review.
I assume the battery is vastly improved from 8?
Yes they have a good better battery long life.
Hello hope all is well. Saw your video on osmo action 3, I follow your vlogs....need a suggestion....how do u find osmo action 3.....I am looking to buy something for daily vlogs
Do you think going to 50hz on the GoPro 11 would reduce the flicker?
Great video, would these results be the same as the Hero 11 mini too, I believe the spec is the same?
Yeah, the video quality is more or less the same.
iso max 3200 is crazy. makes everything noisy. keep it at max 800 and use a light if necessary.
Great job young lady👍
@Gemini Connect What Gimbal do you use?
I always shoot 60 fps in lowlight, it removes the micro vibrations. Max iso 800 is also important to me.
I just got my first GOPRO now in May of 2024. the Hero 10. I'm surprised that the video quality isn't great. I thought that they were supposed to be impressive, even many years ago. Here we are with models from around 2022 and it seems like gopro videos look worse than a cheap cell phone video from 2010. jittery and not that clear in sunlight and super dark in low light.
I get it that you kind of want to sell hero11 but for an unbiased eye it performs worse in low light than gopro10. The only thing it does is make the image darker overall sometimes to an unacceptable level - face blotched in shadows while GoPro 10 maintans clear view of face in frame. Reg the boost - what does it help if when its on - its the same bigger crop and when its off - its not working on boost setting.
I wish GoPro would put out a 1" sensor camera, that would be great for my needs.
Thank you :)
Any suggestions for cameras in the gopro's price range that are good in low light?
DJI Pocket 3
@@Gemini_Connect TY!
Now which is the best action camera DJI action 3,Akaso brave 8, GoPro hero 11
GoPro 11
"low light" proceeds to show the most illuminated spots
Exactly
Thanks Suzi, I skipped the Hero 10 but, the Hero 11 looks so much better in lowlight with a gimbal! I think I'm going to have to get this one! Mahalo for doing this video so I could see the difference! =)
If you didn't get the 10, for sure jump on the 11. I think you'll like it!
@@Gemini_Connect thank you yeah I'm going to get it! Appreciate you and Martin plenty for all your hard work!
Aloha~ i am still trying to figure out what would be best setting for my gp9 and gp10 low light night shootings like night time parades or night/early morning drive video scenes ...so far i have tested/ tried many different settings but i guess low light/night scenes are not for gopros.the outcome is alwsy Too Dark or Too Noisy if its bright...i still do not know what is best setting yet?... i have decided not to spend anymore money with gopros i am searching other device to replace my GPS 9 and 10. sad
If you're mainly shooting in low light, GoPro is not the camera for you. You might want to look at the DJI Pocket -- a new model is supposed to be coming very soon.
@@Gemini_Connect Aloha~ thank you for the info and response~ i was thinking about dji pocket2 as well for low light/night 4K shootings not to mentions portable like name says pocket...stay safe Mahalo!😁
Great video. I need a action camera for night work as a Bushman (Bushman UK is my channel), I mount my cameras to street furniture so they dont normally move. Of the GoPro 10 and 11, which would give me better quality 4k results fit to publish please? Thanks.
2:19 why did you record in flat profile at iso6400 ? because it's well known that flat color profile exhibits way more noise than natural/vibrant... The rest of the shots are in Vibrant and only the iso6400 test is in Flat... not a fair test actually...
I didn't knowingly film in flat for any tests, but looking at the clip more closely, it does look like it may have been -- there's not a way to verify. If so, it was a mistake. Either way, it is also known that ISO 6400 produces more noise than any other ISO.
GoPro Hero 11 looks larger than the 10. Or is it because the Hero 11 is on a mount? Great introduction. Thanks!
Both are the same size
I think I would limit the iso to something less than 3200 in the dark to better match the 11
I agree. I normally have 1600 as the max i go up to. Otherwise the noise is too annoying.
What sharpness low med or high ??
I prefer medium or low.
camera looks in low light like its from 2010.. ngl. sad but true, the stabilisation works not good when you walk, the noise is one of the most terrible ones i ever saw on an action cam.(by night)
didnt expect this from such a new model, i know the sensor is small but compared to other action cams and how they work its not even close, the gropro just looks years behind.. to be fair i dont hunt on the stabilisation because the gopro dont have an build in gimbal like some others... but come on the noise is really not acceptable for such a big brand with that much experience in this sector.
my opinion, no hate, i like the gopro cams and they can operate really well.. but just in daytime...
im looking for a cam that can handle noise and motion to strap it on the car (by night aswell) and have some good quality (bitrate aswell! 100mbit/s is the bottom line for me)... the Insta cams are noise too, dji aswell but slightly better in some cases and here with the gopro you get i would say the worst night-experience... why having 5k(+) resolutions even with bitrates between 100-120mbit/s but such a small sensor that none of this really makes sense when you wanna use them outside of the perfect ISO 100-200 spot. thats what bothers me, i know the small form factor but even a lot of smartphones can handle noise way better with even tinier sensors... please but some more effort into software to make these actions cams (not just gopro, all of them) work as the technic inside of them deserves..
You can reduce night noise on black 11 hero with iso 100 min 400max
It reduces noise, but often makes the image too dark. When shooting in low light you usually need ISO Max of at least 800 or 1600.
@@Gemini_Connect okay
Why go pero 10 in night dosent work very good, specialy staplization.
please give us a best sitting for night.
walking video in night
Action cameras aren't meant for shooting in low light. But if you really need to, use a gimbal and the set the ISO min to 100 and ISO Max to 3200 (or Auto on the Hero 11).
Thank you
Just bought go pro 11 for 300$ but it's surprising that the night mode Quality increases significantly with a Gimbal 😅...
Yeah, stability improves a lot!
I think it's better buy sony zv 1 to this moment and wait to go pro 15...
For certain uses, Sony or something that isn't an action camera can definitely be better.
They both look bad in your test footage unless you use a gimbal. Which gimbal is your current favorite for the Hero 10/11?
Agreed. I'm using the Inkee Falcon Plus. It's my favorite for GoPro.
Using Hypersmooth tends to overblur the images more or less. So, a total unprofessional test. But even so, GPH10 sensor have a slightly better behaviour in low light. Anyway, these sensors have almost same low light "performances". Real low light ability will appear when they will use Starvis 1 or 2 sensors. Until then, these comparisons are... useless.
Is it just me or is this go pro blurry? 1080p?
you need to use gopro labs without gimbal in low light.
You are amazing ❤ where you are from
As far as I can tell from this video and your last Vlogs, the DJI action 3 destroys the Gopros in term of Low light Stabilizaion. Thanks.
Agree with you .. go pro it's better.
Thanks, you're right, If you buy a GoPro 11 you'll need a Gimbal.
So the takeaway is the 11 is better at night but both of these cameras are useless at night.
for night, GoPro it's down :( I hope the GoPro 20 shoots better at night...
Screw the EIS. Use a gimbal.
I'm having trouble with my museum vlogging when the room doesn't have windows. Can I get a better/less grainy shot if i restrict my Gopro 11 to 1080? Here's an example of the grainy/jittery video from ruclips.net/video/byvaAs7-X7Y/видео.html Help!
You need a light
@@Gemini_Connect I was using a small light on my go pro. i"m interested in keeping the natural dark look of the museum but i don't like it when it gets glittery and grainy
Hi dear😊😊 i love your video... Please give me the hero11
Pretty awful at night both of them.
Hlo sister gift me dji mavic wireless mic
lowlight is horrible in both..
Action cameras are definitely not the best for low light.
Thanks for your video. Very helpful. I haven't put the Hero 11 to the test in low light settings yet, but I plan to do so soon .I filmed a video a few months back in low light with my hero 9 and IU was pretty surprized by the results. I normally only shoot utp to 1600 at night - 3200 at a stretch - so i was a little suprized when I saw you use the higher settings. I normally adjust the WB to 3200 or 4000 to capture the best image at night. Do you mess around much with the WB? Cheers. BTW this was my effort. ruclips.net/video/Stu5anJmuWk/видео.html
The latest fad on YT is to bash GoPro’s overheating and low light issues. Notice how it’s all one big echo chamber. Every other video is “low light test” or “overheating test”. How funny is that
It's a fad because those have been 2 GoPro's biggest weaknesses. Personally, I've never experienced overheating, and a camera of that size is almost always going to perform terribly in low light.
Thanks for info.
btw: For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life
You should try with manual Shutter Speed... the walking videos showing the street are unusable in both cameras right now
won't happen on this channel
