GoPro HERO10 Black Bones User Manual Tech Specs: Time Lapse
TIMEWARP VIDEO SPEED
You can increase TimeWarp video speed up to 30x to turn longer activities into shareable moments. The default setting is Auto, which automatically sets the speed for you.
You can also set the speed yourself. Use this chart to estimate the length of your videos. For example, recording at 2x speed for 4 minutes will give you about 2 minutes of TimeWarp video.
Speed | Recording Time | Video Length |
|---|---|---|
2x | 1 minute | 30 seconds |
5x | 1 minute | 10 seconds |
10x | 5 minutes | 30 seconds |
15x | 5 minutes | 20 seconds |
30x | 5 minutes | 10 seconds |
Heads Up: Recording times are approximate. The video length may vary depending on the movement in your shot.
Speed | Examples |
|---|---|
2x–5x | Driving through a scenic route. |
10x | Hiking and exploring. |
15x–30x | Running and mountain biking. |
📘PRO TIP: For the best results, leave the speed on the Auto setting when shooting footage that may get bumpy.
