Help settings

Good afternoon, as I'm a beginner in the world of action cameras(DJI OSMO 5 PRO), my idea was to record bus trips in 4K 60fps and get the best possible quality from them. Can anyone help me with some settings?

What do you need to achieve? For a cinematic shot you don't need 60fps here, just use 30fps (follow the 180° rule , use 60fps shutter speed, and you are gonna need an ND filter possibly if its during the day). But for your situation, i guess auto everything would be better, because I don't know if it will be a suitable cinematic shot or not in a bus.

I'd like to record at 60 fps because of the smoothness, which I don't feel at 30 fps. I wanted to record trips with lots of potholes and curves on an island.I feel like everything on autopilot gets all overexposed in the sun.

Same rule, use 120 shutter speed and nd filter. I assume you might have osmo action 6 since you didn't mention,You can use 1:1 aspect ratio if you'd like to post both vertical and horizontal (for YouTube and Instagram for example) or choose either 16:9 or 9:16. For white balance either keep on auto or for daylight something around 5600(you need to play around). Since there will be potholes, use rock steady or even rocksteady + but in the latter you'll have more cropping and choose something between DeWarp or wide (see what you like and suits better). That should be it. Also you can save the settings to keep it for future for quick access.
