Recently acquired a sideshot hero 7 combo. Is possible to get the view of the crosshairs bigger? Does it require a certain lense change? Is it some settings I’m missing? Seems like videos I’ve seen on YouTube are much larger.
Question for anyone familiar with Sideshot GoPro mount.

Different settings but it won't be a full view screen. Also keep in mind it will change during editing the video.

I would expect you need just need to zoom the camera. Link for the lens change if it has not been done.

YouTube Hajimoto productions. He recommends a lens change and a link to get it. I did it to mine. Sorry I don't know how to add a link. This is the title:

The go pro is not really intuitive to use. When you get to the video screen there will appear a small round dot in the lower right . If you tap on the dot you can slide it up which will zoom the camera.
you still might need a different lens to accomplish your goal but I think you can improve your situation some. It’s only a 2x zoom

EagleVision makes a good replacement lens for the GoPro.
This video walks you through the installation. I was using a different camera mount at the time, but I'm now using the lens with a SideShot.
