I'm about to purchase a gopro 11. I have the hero 4 silver.
I make short clips using red filter, sometimes a small torch inside a ziploc bag, one of those led torches for runners. I don't do editing, except for trimming.
Unfortunately, I've read I'll need to purchase a new filter, because the hero11 is a different size than the hero 4.
I've seen on a video on youtube a person saying with the new white balance, red filters weren't necessary. It made me wonder if I should buy the red filter.
My question: can the white balance of the hero11 replace a red filter?
I've found and read many posts already where the topic is discussed, but the answers always involve some post processing, color correction.
What if one won't do any color correction?
So, do I still need red filter with the hero11, or is its white balance enough? I want to get the best possible result without expensive lights and post processing.
And could you share your settings, having in mind I don't want to color correct later on computer? Someone said something about a cheat sheet on the backscatter site, but I couldn't find it.
If I buy a filter, it'll be the polarpro. The backscatter looks nicer, with the flip system, but it's too expensive for me at the moment.
I use the gopro with a kind of selfie stick.
I'm getting a real torch for night snorkeling, but it'll be a cheap one, about 1000 lumen. My budget is about 50 euros tops for the torch.
Thank you!
