GoPro Tip – Locking the screen

GoPro in Blue Cover

The things you learn…

A thing about GoPros that has always annoyed me, is the way it is so easy to change modes or other settings by inadvertently touching the screen. So often you get home and find that that 12 minute you shot has turned into a single image for example, as you switched the camera to photo mode by mistake.

Lamenting this in a GoPro forum I often visit, I was informed there is an easy fix to this; GoPro’s have a screen lock button in the Preferences section, a fact I had simply overlooked. You can see it in these screen shots.

 

There is also a quick video displaying the action below.
