How can I get a fixed short exposure (

Question

Does anybody knows about way to fix or manually set the exposure of a GoPro Hero 4 Black (FW HD4.02.02.00.00). I want to set short exposure (< 2 sec), so that each shot has the same parameter.

There are some hacks out for the Hero 3/3+, but so far I could not discover anything which works on a Hero 4 Black. I tried the autoexechack feature which is used for all these hacks, but it seems like it isn't supported any more since the FW HD4.02. Are there any information I'm not aware of?

Regards

ps: I'm aware of that there is the long time exposure function but these question is about short exposure times for day time photos.

Perhaps you could just take a short video and then take a frame from it using VLC or some other program. If you want a faster shutter speed you could enable slow motion. Its not a perfect solution but it's better than nothing.

there is a new firmware update on the hero 4. you can set the shutter speed and lock the ISO on videos. With the fixed aperture that gives you manual exposure. Shutter speed Options 30fps: 1/30; 1/60; 1/120 @60fps: 1/60; 1/120; 1/240 @120fps: 1/120; 1/240; 1/480
