[@clarebowles899]

This is the BEST tutorial. This is my first GoPro and have watched several youtube videos for beginners. Most rush through the basics, this one is clear and easy to follow!

[@euniceun]

Agreed

[@rob-c.]

Thumb-screw tip: although it doesn’t matter which side you have it screwed in from, it’s best to install it on the non-battery side. That way you can still open the door to change the battery or connect the USB without having to take apart your set-up 👍

[@edburnside4911]

Good point 👍

[@wyomingsundays]

Remember the Commodore 64? I got one when I was 14. I’m about to get the Hero 10 and that’s the level of excitement I’m having right now! Seriously.

[@bartjhowell]

I'm so glad I found this ... now I'm confident I'll be able to start using my first GoPro today. The other videos were so fast paced and I felt like they were showing off more than helping.

[@AirPhotography]

Thank you very much I’m glad you enjoyed my video

[@juliew835]

Excellent tutorial, very thorough and perfect for a GoPro newbie. Thank you for taking the time to make this very helpful video!

[@videopoul]

I've been happy with my HERO 7 for a couple of years, but after some trouple with it I 'upgraded' to the 10 today. I found your tutorial and may say that I like the way you explain things. Nice and easy. And a good voice. A good voice is very important. Thank you, teacher. GO GOPRO! Best wishes, Poul of Denmark ;-)

[@DaveGee0]

My Hero 10 Black arrived today (first GoPro ever) and I sat at my desk, GoPro in hand, and watched your video from beginning to end. Exactly what I needed to get started. I love your video style with only the hands and the product. I felt like you were sitting next to my as a personal instructor. Of course I liked & subscribed and will be watching all of your videos. Thank you so much !

[@afloatinawoodenboat]

Perfect - we’ve never had one before and really needed this! Thanks x

[@harleminthebuildn9234]

TOP MARKS MATE. THIS HELPED ME OUT A LOT CONSIDERING THAT THEY DO NOT PUT INSTRUCTIONS IN WITH THE GOPRO 10 TELLING YOU HOW TO USE IT. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽🙂🙂🙂

[@neilbland1701]

Hey Shaun, thank you so much for sharing this. As you know, I own a GoPro Hero 9 Black and I have to say how impressed i am with how the Hero 10 is performing especially the touch-screen, so silky smooth and it picked all your inputs up first time, every time - a game changer this for us all. Thank you and I look forward to your follow-up Vlogs. Best regards, Neil.

[@AirPhotography]

Thanks Neil much appreciated

[@jennyarnett4024]

Brilliant, really well produced and clear instructions. GoPro should put a link to your videos in the box. I've had the camera for 3 months and had given up trying to figure it using the GoPro instructions. Now I've seen this video I'll be using it, and I'll definitely be watching your other videos.

[@garfieldngsapangbato]

It is a little bit long like you mentioned but totally worth listening/watching to the end. Very tailored to a beginner like me. You don't speak so fast like other experts. I just received my GoPro Hero 10 and I learned so much from this video. Thanks very much!
