I went to see Durham lumiere on the weekend and thought I would try and record it using my go pro 4. Now some of the stuff came out ok, but the main bit which was the protection on to th cathedral didn't work so well. Is there a specific useful setting/set up to use for low light night time? It was set on pro tune, which after a quick search may have been a bad thing to use?
Thanks in advance.
I will upload the footage I got later on regardless so at least you can see what I mean.

yeh protune seem to fuck a few things up
1080p or 720p at 60fps are the usual ones iv been using for track days/go karting and all have come out just fine

I was trying in in 4K. Normally film in 1080p for biking stuff and that seems fine. I think pro tune needs knocked off.

Go pros are pretty shit in low light..
Generally you want to use a low frame rate and a wide angle to increase 'exposure' ..

Find it odd having the photos in a wide lense format I know you can change that I just didn't to see what they looked like. Probably better than what my phone can do so that's cool.

Pro tune will look shite until you import it via gopro studio then apply the protune post process filter then it will look better than stuff filmed with the camera auto processing. Having said that I wouldn't use protune for low light stuff. There is specific iso settings in the camera for low light stuff.
Older go pros were wank in low light but the 4 is pretty impressive tbf
