GoPro HERO11 Black User Manual Setting the Screen Orientation

You can easily switch between landscape and portrait shots by rotating your camera. It can even capture photos and videos right-side up when it’s mounted upside down.

The orientation is locked in when you press the Shutter button . If your camera tilts during recording, like on a roller coaster, your footage will tilt with it. You’ll capture every twist and turn.

LOCKING THE ORIENTATION

You can lock the screen in landscape or portrait orientation. This is especially useful when you’re using body and handheld mounts. That’s when accidentally shooting in the wrong orientation is most likely to happen.

Swipe down on the rear screen to access the Dashboard.

1. Turn your camera to the orientation you want.

2. Tap on the Dashboard.

The screen is now locked and will match the orientation of your camera.

Heads Up: Locking the screen in this way will only work when the Orientation is set to All (default) in Preferences.

SETTING LANDSCAPE LOCK

You can also set your GoPro to record only in landscape orientation.

Swipe down on the rear screen to access the Dashboard.

1. Swipe left and tap Preferences > Displays > Orientation.

2. Switch from Auto (default) to Landscape.

Your GoPro will record right-side up whether your camera is right-side up or upside down. You can also lock the orientation on the Dashboard.
