GoPro HERO 3+ Video Quality Test & Comparison (WVGA, 720p, 960p, 1080p, 1440p, 2.7k, 4k, SuperView)

This is a back-to-back comparison of every different video resolution mode on the new GoPro 3+ camera. Make sure to watch in 4K so that you can really see the differences in video quality. For this video I used one camera (the GoPro HERO 3+ Black Edition) and filmed clips one after the other, only changing the video resolution and frame rate. The frames per second, or fps, of the clip was always set to the highest possible at the resolution. All of the clips are unedited (no color correction, stabilization, cropping, etc) and were captured with the GoPro in the standard waterproof case which comes with the 3+ camera.

Excellent video! what I just needed to see the quality on each settings! good job!

[TheElectricMrPJ]

that was an excellent video that helped me visually understand what each setting will do for me. thank you!

[ComesTheRooster]

Just what I needed. I plan to capture little league baseball with a linkspyder (sp?) mount and it looks to me 1080p SUPER sacrifices clarity for depth of field. Sticking with 1080p. Thanks for the very thorough video.

Be sure to switch video setting on youtube(cog wheel, upper right) advanced settings 1080p. It makes the image really crisp. ;0)

[ATampada]

Whoa 4k has like every single detail :o. I wonder what it would be like if 8k came to youtube. (Mind blown)

[loveraceearth]

[DaveTormala]

finally someone givng the proper video of how this camera looks.. got me sold in wanting this. :)

[frankrichard]

Big thanks for that simple yet very useful video!

[PhoenixsWorldVideos]

I need to pee after listening to that! XD

[Challis]

this is the only video on youtube ive seen to have a quality beyond 1080p

[ScorgeRudess]

great overall but miss the night footage

[KenyonPayne]

So since most computers can only playback 1080p, is there really a point of filming in anything higher than 1080p? I have seen really good results of using 1080p protune with proper colour correction

[MrJAndrews]

Good Job man! how can you upload 4k or 2.7k movies on youtube? because it automatically uploads it at 1080! 

[jazzwonk]

Thanks for the video. I'm going snorkeling in Bermuda next week. Recommendations on settings?

[ongkelvin]

What settings should i use if i just wanna take videos as i walk along streets for my europe tour? is 1080p good enough?

[LindyBreaksTheStigma]

Why would you put your watermark over the stats???

[billnye]

So if were to post an edit on youtube, and most of it was filmed in 4k but some of it was in 2.7k, would I still be be able to upload it with the option to watch in 4k??

[Motorcyclecbr]

Should i be watching on 1080p or does it not matter

[seungyilyoon]

Why doesn't my GoPro show 4K and 100 fps?

[ohmigoshness]

I'm going to Washington and want to record while walking around and seeing stuff, help me which settings ?
