Night shots are a great way to show off the beauty of your surroundings while it’s dark. With the GoPro Night Lapse<\/strong>, you can capture the way the world changes during the hours of darkness. It’s an excellent tool for showing off your favorite city, and capturing how beautiful it looks at night.<\/p>\n

However, before you go out there to capture night lapse shots with your GoPro camera, there are a few things you should know.<\/p>\n

In this article, you’ll get to know about some useful tips to create epic night lapses.<\/strong><\/p>\n

What is GoPro Night Lapse<\/h2>\n
\n

As the name suggests, the GoPro Night Lapse<\/strong> refers to time lapse videos captured in dark and low light conditions. When the GoPro night-lapse mode is on, the camera allows for longer exposure time to capture clearer night time shots when there isn’t much available light around you.<\/p>\n

To achieve this, it automatically adjusts the shutter speed<\/a> to let more light in and picks the interval that will give you the best results.<\/p>\n

Depending on how lit your surroundings are at any given moment, users can also manually choose different shutter speeds. Lower lighting usually needs higher exposures so that more detail is captured from the darkness.<\/p>\n

Brighter areas like city skylines<\/strong> under streetlights would require less intense photos since they’re already illuminated by artificial sources such as lamps and windows. But, in case you aren’t sure, you can set the shutter speed to \u2018Auto\u2019<\/strong> and let your GoPro decide.<\/p>\n

Please note that GoPro Night Lapse shots are strictly for those occasions when your camera is stationary and held by a mount<\/a> or a tripod<\/a>.<\/p>\n

GoPro Night Lapse Photo<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Just like time lapse photos, you can also capture Night Lapse photos <\/strong>with GoPro. The photo format takes a continuous series of photos at set intervals during your night shoot. You can then look through all of your photos and find the best shots later.<\/p>\n

To use this mode, all you need to do is – go to Format<\/strong> in settings and choose Photo<\/strong> to capture a series of photos at set intervals, out of which you can select the best ones later on.<\/p>\n
