3.1 Synchronized Capture

With the Sync Cable connected, one camera acts as the master, controlling the settings and recording functions of the second camera. Power on the master camera, and the slave camera will automatically mirror its operational state. Any changes to video mode, resolution, or photo settings on the master camera will apply to both cameras simultaneously.

3.2 Creating 3D Content

To create 3D content, record synchronized 2D videos or photos using the Dual HERO System. After capturing your footage, transfer the files to a computer. Utilize the free GoPro Studio editing software to combine the synchronized left and right eye footage into a single 3D video file. The included 3D Anaglyph Glasses can be used to view the resulting 3D content on compatible 3D televisions or computer monitors.

3.3 Wasserdichter Einsatz

The Dual HERO System housing is designed to be waterproof up to 197 feet (60 meters). Before submerging the system, ensure the housing is properly closed and sealed, and that no debris is obstructing the O-ring seal. After use in saltwater, rinse the housing with fresh water and allow it to air dry.
