[@waynebrunner1826]

I just bought a pre-owned GP 8 for one purpose, which is to try and document a few special MC rides while I still can. I had NO idea how complex these are. This tutorial is absolutely fantastic! I'd be willing to buy a quick settings guide with this info, which would save me from either taking numerous screenshots or attempting to keep notes. Neither of which is a realistic solution. At my age trying to remember this is not an option. Had I not seen this, it's quite likely this would have either eventually gone in the box with all the other cameras I got very little use of, or put for sale. I so regret not having this technology available for the few times the wife and I did some very risky ocean kayaking with 13' Feathercraft's with homemade sails. THANKS SO MUCH!

Thanks for another awesome tutorial! My photo's are all in 4:3 aspect even though the photo setting displays Wide on my Hero10 LCD. In Photo Settings it shows Wide but, its not highlighted. Also, tapping on it in settings I can't get any other setting options. Could you please tell me what I'm missing? I would sincerely appreciate it. As always, Thank You for all your awesome tutorials!! Great job! 👍

[@GreatDayForAHike]

Thanks! The photo will by default be in the 4:3 aspect ratio (or in the case of the Hero 11, the 8:7 aspect ratio). This is because GoPro designed the photo mode to use the entire sensor. If you want to crop it later on you can easily do so on your computer or phone. Hope this helps!

[@rapaent]

@@GreatDayForAHike Thank you! With GoPro giving you the option of Wide, I couldn't figure out what the problem was. A little bit of a hassle to get the wide aspect but, it will give you some adjustment in post transitioning it. I have FCPX and ON1 Photo therefore, it shouldn't be a problem. Thanks again, appreciate all your hard work you put into your tutorials!! 👍

Question. So would it be a better choice to use a external mic to control the wind noise say outside a moving car?

Yes, an external wireless mic that you are wearing if you wanted to talk inside the car while the GoPro is outside the car would be a great combo.

[@BraaapoholicBob]

Any additional suggestions for my use which is basically dirt bike riding? Thanks.

[@GreatDayForAHike]

That’s a fun use case and the GoPro is a great camera for this. Two main things you’ll want to consider: 1. What frame rate do you want to share your video in? Many prefer the 60fps for action like this. 2. What lens do you want. Do you want super wide where the horizon appears to bend with Superview or do you want horizon leveling where the horizon stays consistent with the Linear + HL lens? Also, you may want some slow motion clips at times too. If you do I recommend 4K 120fps. Check out these tips for the slow motion if you decide to do this: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rYHcn2WJmamZkJo

[@BraaapoholicBob]

@@GreatDayForAHike Thank you for the reply...to answer your questions I see most people at 60FPS for fast action like a dirt bike so probably will do that. Also, I think the Superview really adds to the videos I see with bikes, etc. Just seems to look better when you take in a lot of the terrain. As for slow motion I might experiment with that but mostly I am a set it and forget it person and it is unlikely I will spend any significant time doing post editing other than cropping segments.

[@GreatDayForAHike]

Sounds like a great plan. Yes, when I watch footage of action sports like this I think I enjoy it most in Superview.

[@GreatDayForAHike]

Thank you. If you would like to edit and have maximum vertical and horizontal flexibility with your footage later on I recommend using the 8:7 full frame mode in 5.3K 30fps. If you don't need that much flexibility then I recommend doing the 5.3K resolution using the wide or ultrawide lens if you prefer more of the landscape around you. As for frame rate you could choose 60 fps if there is a chance you'll want to slow anything down. Otherwise you could use 24 or 30 fps.

Thank you for your great video. I have one question for you. I have Nikon D7100 camera to take pictures and to do video with gimbal DJI Ronen RS 2 that I have. Now I'm thinking and to buy GOPRO Hero 10. this design is easier to use in cities and fast moving with Gimbals Ronin SR 2. My question is if it is a bad choice to buy GoPro 10 action camera and to be able to use for Gimbal Ronin SR2, maybe is this Hohem iSteady Pro 4 is better choice. Than you for help. Alex

[@GreatDayForAHike]

Great question. The RS 2 is a great gimbal. I’m thinking the GoPro could be too light for that gimbal and may tend to bounce around a bit too much but it could be worth trying the GoPro on it first to see how it does. If it doesn’t work out then I’d recommend checking out either the iSteady Pro 4 or the Inkee Falcon Plus.

[@0Ciju0]

Hi there. Thanks for the video. Quick question, if Im flying FPV drones would 60FPS be better than the slower 30/24 FPS?

[@GreatDayForAHike]

Yes. I personally love 60FPS combined with a 1/240 shutter speed and an Auto ISO if you’re using ND filters. That gives that nice FPV feel while still having plenty of motion blur. If you’re not using ND filters just do 60FPS with an Auto shutter speed and Auto ISO.

[@0Ciju0]

@@GreatDayForAHike Yeah I just ran a side by side comparison after flying around with two different profiles. 60FPS is definitely better for my use. I don't use ND filters, any recommendations?

@0Ciju0 if you’re looking for ND filters, I use the ones from Freewell and like them as the best product for the best price. If you don’t want to use ND filters then 60FPS with an Auto Shutter speed should work well.

Im a total beginner with action cams. Just starting off. I play racquetball and want go get good footage. What camera settings would be best for capturing this sport with such a fast small ball to track?

Great video! I just bought a GoPro 12 and I love it but I have noticed that sometimes on certain skin tones things look a bit over sharpened and you can see a lot of blemishes on people’s skin, almost looks too sharp. If I’m just shooting scenery, everything looks gorgeous but when I’m shooting people or interviewing people, their skin looks a little sharp or even artifacts a bit. What do you suggest for better results? Sharpness to low? And for ISO max, is 400 outside ok? Thanks for the tips!!!
