You might wonder how to color grade or color correct GP-Log. The problem is that no matter how good you are at color grading, the exposure needs to be right in order to get good results. With the release of Gopro hero 12 Black, Gopro also released GP-Log or Gopro Log to the official firmware. But they implemented it with a secret EV comp of -2. This is why GP-Log is too dark in every shot. This video explains why a -2 EV comp is too low, and how to fix it with gopro labs.
