Hi, no way to turn OFF these annoying bips? ??

[@drummernik]

Got my Hero 12 last week ! It’s my first GoPro, Thanks for the awesome tips and precise information, Vic! Cheers

[@VicBarry]

Awesome. You’re welcome. Enjoy the new camera 👊👊

Thank you for showing all menus, not only the settings!

My goodness, thank you so much for this. I just got a Hero 12 and I really want to learn but have ZERO time, so this helps tremendously!

[@VicBarry]

Glad I could help!

Thanks for this tutorial i brought yesterday 12 this can more useful for me ✌🏻

[@VicBarry]

Glad it helped. Best of luck with the new GoPro 12

[@nomanthehero5200]

Cheers Vic, very useful. Just bought the GoPro 12 here in Peru. $500. Expensive, but I needed it. Just FYI, the GoPro 7 is a very tough camera, but it cannot survive a 50mph drop from a motorbike, followed by being run over by the car following you . . .

[@VicBarry]

Ouch. That’s pricey. Disappointing to hear to the GoPro 7 didn’t survive that 🤣

Wish the capture modes were still available in the easy mode. What kind off hyper smooth is used in easy mode? On or auto boost?

[@hinetimes]

Great Vid. General question, if batteries get pregnant are they still safe to use?

[@TheKato2012]

Thanks for the video. It is very helpful and well done.

[@kennyadvocat]

Can you make a video more about the timecode? Back in the day all my pro video-cameras accepted time code sync settings. Made it so easy to edit live music stuff. Would automatically make multi cam group clips all in sync before editing. Since 2010ish every brand has removed those timecode features except for the huge expensive cameras. Would it be easy to sync a few gopro and a separate sound recorder like the zoom? Funny the only feature I find useful here was common in the late 90s lol

[@VicBarry]

Great suggestion! Cheers :)

[@johnhpalmer6098]

I had looked to see if modern camera had timecode, but wasn't finding anything definitive about it, but have since learned that if you have an audio jack, there are outboard devices now that will send the TC pulse to one channel of your camera, and even your Zoom or Tascam audio recorder and then jam sync everything that has this devise connected to it. Octopus is one such device, and there are others. Essentially, one device will act as a master clock and then jam syncs the rest of the devices if you need to do so.

[@kennyadvocat]

@@johnhpalmer6098 yes the dji osmo does that. Looks like the new gopro had added something like this too. 👍😁

[@johnhpalmer6098]

@@kennyadvocat Mind you, this was a couple of years ago when I looked. Yes, the GP has it, but what I've heard is other H12's, but nothing about being able to interface with 3rd party devices such as the Octopus. My guess is likely but who knows though? This would be a feature to have as syncing 2 cameras, or VO from a device with TC would make syncing much easier, though matching waveforms is not too bad to do. Have done it myself.

[@Premier_lawns_official]

What do you think about the new go pro Vic?

[@VicBarry]

Hey Robbie, very first impressions are the screen isn't great! Similar issues with the first firmware last time round, but an update sorted it. But otherwise, hasn't overheated, decent battery life. Once I get some bright thing in the sky, I'll be able to take it out :)

[@Premier_lawns_official]

@@VicBarry i bought the 11 last year, I have an 8 too. Might buy a 360 camera next, I'm doing a lot of reels now and they action cams are great for those...

[@139vxg]

Thank you.

[@DimmanExploring]

nice video Vic i have the same settings but i cant click on Iso and Iso Max they are grey on 100 and 1600 how do i change them?

[@VicBarry]

Hey Jimmy, cheers. To be honest, it's kinda hard to figure it out from here, but chances are it's a setting somewhere, or mode that you're in. If you haven't dialed in a tonne of other settings, a factory reset is probably the qucikest way to fix it.

[@justinmercadovlogtv]

Hey mate I just purchase the GoPro hero 12 and I just wanted how to put the video you capture in your laptop since I wanted to edit them once I take a video of it then put it in youtube

[@VicBarry]

Hi Justin. Fastest way is to use an sd card reader and the sd card out of the GoPro.

[@justinmercadovlogtv]

@@VicBarry okay thanks mate

[@zablonreuben]

Hey good explanations but where's options for zooming in and out? I bought one recently amd can't takes footage from far.

[@notalktravelerph]

I have gorpro 12 but I don't have the burst mode of photo settings. How to add it in the settings mode?

[@-old-school-motorcyclesltd]

Great video question : When I’ve decided to do a quick video but not saved the settings when I turn it on again then next time I use it will it revert back to the last settings I’ve just put in?? Thank you 😊😊

[@VicBarry]

These GoPro 12 accessories are definitely worth checking out once you’ve mastered the settings here - check them out here kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJCkaKN_ob2noZY

[@user-wd6gg9kk6n]

I only recently connected my GoPro hero 12 to the Quik app but I see the 5.3K settiing is completely gone. Has GoPro DELETED the 5.3K option? If not, how do I get it back?

[@adicosmagiu5406]

Howdy! I recently purchased a brand new GoPro Hero12 camera from Emag and it won't work without the default Quik app, so if it won't load data from this app, the camera is basically dead. Of course I installed the app. but the updates are not installed even after hundreds of attempts, it still gives me the same errors, I also created an account on this application, for nothing, plus I bought space in the cloud from my phone, thinking that - here's the problem (it was full), it's not good either, I also checked the memory card so that the gopro is compatible, it associates in bluetooth without problems. On the camera screen it only shows me the steps for the optimal language and then the application logo (flashing). Should I uninstall the app and install it again, what else could I try?

Where is the zoom in and out feature ?

[@achimd.8135]

Hello Vic, great video and easy to follow. I want to check with you. Even with the boost enabled my videos are all shaky. Any tips on what I might have set wrong? Or should I factory reset and set it up new?

[@VicBarry]

Hey 👋 kinda impossible to figure it out to be honest. Factory reset is probably the best option and start again. If it’s still happening after that then it may be time to get in contact with GoPro

[@davestelling]

Morning, Vic - Just purchased the Hero 12 "Creator Edition " yesterday. I'm completely new to the Go Pro, and this sure is helping me out - thanks very much. Is there a way that I can play video from the Go Pro on my Samsung tv like when I "Cast" video from my Galaxy 'phone wirelessly? Take care...

[@VicBarry]

Hey Dave, thank you. No cast option with the GoPro I’m afraid. You might be able to screen mirror the app but that might be quite laggy. Enjoy the new gear 🙏

[@davestelling]

​@VicBarry Thanks Vic....I since learned that - so I purchased an hdmi cable off Amazon and all is good there. Now I'm working on just familiarizing working the basic settings for a stroll outside at night, and during the day here as the leaves here in upstate New York are getting pretty. I sure appreciate your answering me, thanks again...

[@luke11986]

Thanks for the video! So apparently they still haven't improved the sensitivity on the display.

[@VicBarry]

Yeah, the 11 had this issue on release as well, but they fixed it with a firmware update. Guessing they’ll do the same here

I have the standard and hdr setting but somehow im missing the log option. How does that happen?

[@VTBullitt]

What does looping do? You didn’t address that

[@Subhankarrajvlogs]

Got my Hero 12 a day before and looking at the image quality seems I am missing some settings. Images are coming out to be blurry. Same with HDR and superphoto with linear and wide both settings gives same output with sharpness set to high. Any settings that needs to be changed?

[@VicBarry]

So if images are coming out blurry, how blurry? Are you shooting in daylight or low light? There is no focus in the GoPro 12 so images should be clear and not blurry. If you’re taking photos handheld then try something that’s not handheld

[@Subhankarrajvlogs]

@@VicBarry Thanks for the reply. I do take pictures in broad daylight with proper colourful surroundings. The issue comes when I see it in the app and with a little bit of zoom the pictures looks too blurred. The same issue comes post transfer to the computer as well. And yes I do take handheld pictures. Is Super Photo or HDR with wide or linear the recommended settings? Or are there any settings with the shutter speed I can do with Raw quality?

[@Theezryder]

thanks for sharing!

How do i edit hevc content?

[@ctm130]

why does the camera use HEVC encoding on all videos my adobe premiere elements editing program won't accept the videos i shoot for editing

[@VicBarry]

Is Elements fully updated via creative cloud to the latest version? If not, that could be an issue. Also worth exploring downloading the HEVC codec. Lots of different places but I believe the official place for it is Microsoft. Not sure about any where else.

[@ctm130]

@@VicBarry Yes I bought the newest elements version thinking this was the problem and I downloaded the HEVC codec still not working. Do you think there is a HEVC codec for the elements program or if its in the computer it should work with elements

[@VicBarry]

@@ctm130 Not sure to be honest. I don't think so. Might be worth sending a message to Adobe at this stage

[@EssenceOfKapok]

The GoPro battery surely went from 100% to 0% during the filming of this video

[@VicBarry]

Hey 👋 off the top of my head I can’t remember to be honest but I’m pretty sure it was the same battery from start to finish.

[@zablonreuben]

Correct, very useless battery, quick draining.

[@TheOffroader7458]

Don't let gopro and Creators fool you , this is just a 11 with software updates. Bet gopro won't update the 11. They could, but then no one would buy the 12

[@VicBarry]

How is a settings video fooling anybody?

[@Jowiej03]

For me, I don’t need to keep updating and updating every year. 😅

[@TheOffroader7458]

​@VicBarry This wasn't a dig at you , this was a general answer to viewer's of your channel. Think you got the wrong end of the stick

[@VicBarry]

Fair enough, no wrong end of the stick. Cheers for the comment all the same. It's easy to say the 12 is a glorified firmware update, and for the best part it seems like that in places. But the extra battery life may be one of the things that people need. Then again, batteries are cheap. The thermals seem slightly better in my, so far, limited experience. Ultimately, not everybody is upgrading from the 11. I take it you have the 11 and won't be upgrading?

[@VicBarry]

If it does the job..... ;)
