WHITE BALANCE
White Balance adjusts the overall color tone of videos. Standard video
records in AUTO White Balance only.
Advanced users can make adjustments to the White Balance settings when
in Protune mode. Just remember, Videos recorded with Protune turned ON
require that you post process the video with an editing program to achieve
your desired finish.
PRO

Consider manually setting WHITE BALANCE to the following settings
when operating in the following conditions:
Incandescent or sunrise/sunset lighting
3000K
Daylight or sunlit shooting
5500K
Cool white fluorescent skylight lighting
6500K
Industry standard optimized color
Cam RAW
Cam RAW (Camera RAW)
The HERO3 camera can record Video in Protune mode in Cam RAW. GoPro
Cam RAW mode yields a minimally processed data file direct from the image
sensor that allows for more precise adjustments to be made in post-process.
Working in this mode takes full advantage of the image sensor’s capabilities.
PRO
TIP:
If you’ve changed your WHITE BALANCE settings in
PROTUNE and switch back to Standard recording, the WHITE
BALANCE settings will automatically revert back to AUTO.
