• For best results, keep your subject at least 3 feet away
from camera when shooting in photo mode 720p and 960p
resolutions. When shooting in 1080p, because of its less
wide angle perspective, it’s best to keep your subject at
least 5 feet away from the camera. Failure to do so will
result in an inability to properly align the two video files
for 3D and will cause your eyes to strain when viewing
the subject on screen.
wArNING: If images are shot closer than the
recommended distances, the resulting 3D image will
cause eye strain when viewing during playback.
• For best 3D results, the right camera must be in UP and
the left camera must be in UPd recording modes. For
convenience, the sync cable automatically adjusts each
camera into the ideal UP / UPd mode each time you plug
the sync cable into each camera.
• Both lenses should be cleaned prior to and during use.
Discrepancies in images between cameras due to dust
particles, water drops, etc, will cause eye strain when
viewing in 3D.
• The 3D HERO System can record different video resolutions
simultaneously, but it will not be possible to create 3D video
files from the resulting video files as the resolutions will not
match. Additionally, synchronization will not occur when the
resolutions of each camera do not match.
• To prevent fogging when using the waterproof back
door, use GoPro’s anti-fog inserts with your 3D HERO
System housing.
