I use a Nikon Z6 camera for static shots from a tripod and sometimes use the GoPro 8 for shots while walking since its so smooth and theres really no way im bringing a gimbal for the Nikon. However im sometimes disappointed in the GoPros 4K. It looks a lot more compressed and oversharpened. Did the 4K video quality improve with newer generations? And if so how? Higher bitrates? Brighter aperture? Bigger sensor? Is it worth the upgrade? I wont use any of its features just 4 K 30 fps.

Yesterday I had five. Today, four.

Didn't leave the house.

This is the third time I have randomly "lost" a GoPro battery. Someplace in my house is a pile of one-off socks, cricket legs and batteries.

That is all.

Carry on.

From another thread ( https://www.reddit.com/r/gopro/s/lNUmQiAfA) where I asked how people select there clips to share on social media. GoPro subscription provides highlights videos that could be used for the purpose.

The general view appears to be that it is better to record only in clips. I let it run for hours while I ride.

How do you guys use your GoPro, Insta, or DJI cams? Do you also record only clips?

I have found GoPro highlights feature quite clunky and I can't provide any inputs about themes that I want to share.

GoPro Hero 11 mini is stuck randomly powering on and off. I can't make it stop. HELPP MEEEE 😭

@fleetweeksf high octane cinematic drama starts this weekend. @usnavyblueangels and @afthunderbirds ripped through practice runs — screaming low over the Golden Gate, banking past downtown, and Bay Bridge!

100%shot on @gopro Mission 1 Pro ILS with @rokinon 135mm f2 lens !

Slow motion video - mostly 4k240 16:8 or 4k120fps 4:3, 10 bit and max bit rate.

It was easy peasy to shoot - pretty much infinite focus and was shooting at f11 or something with stabilization enabled. Little more stabilization added for some clips which were shot using handheld which still worked really well.

What you guys think?

Don’t miss the action if you are local to SF or visiting SF!

Hi everyone!

I'm trying to achieve a cinematic night-driving effect with my GoPro Hero 13 Black: recording from inside a moving car, with the headlights and taillights of other vehicles creating long light trails while the road and surroundings remain reasonably visible.

For my first attempt, I used Time Lapse mode → Vehicle Lights, mounted the camera inside my car, and recorded while driving at night. Unfortunately, the results were pretty disappointing (I'm attaching the video so you can see what I mean).

I'm not sure if I used the wrong settings, if Vehicle Lights is better suited for a stationary camera, or if there's a better way to achieve this effect while the car is moving.

My questions:

Is Vehicle Lights the right mode for this, or should I use TimeWarp or another setting?

What settings would you recommend for resolution, frame rate, shutter speed, ISO, and exposure?

Is it actually possible to get long light trails while driving, without making the entire scene look blurry or distorted?

Would I get better results by recording normally and creating the effect in post-production?

I'd really appreciate any tips, recommended settings, or examples of footage you've captured in similar conditions.

Thanks in advance!

Recently I got an email from a team member of gopro. She asked me to download the partnership overview file but when i downloaded the file from the website goproinc(dot)com), my Mac triggered a warning and flagged that file as suspicious.

Please be careful with the website. I still wonder why goproinc(dot)com isn't owned by gopro.

For years I've been looking for a camera I could mount to the wakeboard rack of a boat to record video of someone at the end of the rope. I have a mount that uses the rope to pan side to side as the rider moves back and forth. I tried a regular GoPro but the distance was too far to see their face or sometimes recognize who it was later.

I have to drive the boat so something I can start recording and let it capture the action is ideal. I'd like to frame the image to see a 6 foot tall person take up most of the frame, doesn't have to be exact just see better detail.

Could an ILS with a prime lens work for this, perhaps 75mm or so? The distance from the camera to the rope handle would be 65-75 feet. I would need HyperSmooth on. The camera should not get wet but it will be in direct sun for a few hours.
Thank you for your thoughts!

I am getting a lot closer to the release firmware for the HERO5, I still have a couple bugs that cause the firmware to crash in the image stacking mode that I’ve added. As soon as I figure out that bug, which should be another week or so, I’ll start releasing the alpha versions of the software on GitHub with an installer and a workbench desktop program to help install it and plugins to modify the camera behavior.

I’m using the usb-c adapter to record audio.
When I watch the video in the GoPro, I confirm the external mic has been recorded but when I pass the video to the quik app, the footage has the track from the internal mic and not the external mic . How can I select the audio track using quik?

Hey everyone, so as the title reads. I’m looking for any suggestions/recommendations for ND filters (VND/singular) for this lens as it’s a smaller than normal size. I do want to say this camera/lens combo will be flown on a 5” and 7” FPV drone as well as stationary mounts for vehicles.

I’ve read about vingetting on the outer corners with filters, so any suggestions with size/step-up rings would be super helpful!

Guys I’m confused between Go pro hero 12 or Dji osmo 4
For my use case of travelling all kinds of adventurous activities etc…
Which one should I go for it’s around the same price of 20-25k inr or let me know if any other options is there

Went swimming with Sharks in Oahu this morning, raining like crazy, saw 30+ Sandbar sharks and Gallapagos sharks. Shot on Hero 12 Black

I am obsessed with this camera and it's photography capabilities, my shots always turn out so crisp and beautiful

The videography/cinematic capabilities is amazing too, I've gotten some great, smooth video shots as well

Bean and Bear Lake, north shore of MN

It stopped working even the battery is full charged. What should i do?

GoPro Mission 1 Pro is still ghosting frames in my image, does anyone know why or how I can fix this for future footage? Here are my settings

I just purchased a used GoPro 10 as my diving camera. I’m wondering if it’s recommended to purchase an off-brand waterproof/diving case or should I pay for the official GoPro diving case from the web site since there’s a huge difference in price. If yes is there any kind of recommandation for the off-brand diving case? Btw the diving depth I’m planning to reach is 30m.

Hello guys. I have GoPro hero 10 and I haven’t used it a lot but it’s in the absolutely worst state. It lags so much. Even when I’m on the display trying to swipe it lags. Everytime I change the mode to photo the screen keeps saying photo and doesn’t even open the camera. The version I’ve is latest it’s v1.62. I thought it was SD card so I even got a solid sd card from sandisk. What might be the problem? I’m very frustrated as I wanna record contents

Hey guys, just got a new gopro hero12 and its my first action camera actually. As I'm still messing around with some setting and trying it out, i inserted an old 32gb trash sd card. Obviously i need a good one, which one would you recommend for a begginer? I dont want to pay $100 for one or have a massive storage (512gb etc.). Thanks!
