-The SJCAM SJ8 Pro has two **color profiles** selectable from the **Current Mode Settings** menu: **SJCAM - Vivid** and **Flat**. There is a firmware bug that prevent you changing the color profile if the Gyro Stabilizer is enabled, and the color profile choiche is not remebered after power off. In my opinion the vivid profile is too much saturated, specially it **enhances too much** the contrast from the **blue sky** and the **white clouds**, even when the sky is mainly gray and cloudy (as in the frames below). On the contrary the flat profile is **too much washed out** that you will hardly want to use it.+The SJCAM SJ8 Pro has two **color profiles** selectable from the **Current Mode Settings** menu: **SJCAM - Vivid** and **Flat**. At bootstrap the camera select another profile, let's call it **Default**, which is identical to SJCAM -Vivid, but it is stored in a different place into the firmware, so it can be customized separately.

-You can edit the color profiles using the BitrateEditor software. But be careful that the profile selected at bootstrap is neither //SJCAM - Vivid// nor //Flat//, but another one stored in some other part of the firmware that I was unable to locate.+You can edit the three color profiles //SJCAM - Vivid////Flat// and //Default// using BitrateEditor (required version 10.7 - Nov 32021).
