GoPro HERO 13 BLACK | Beginner's Guide & BEST Settings

[@simracer2428]

I mean you cant get any better than this.. Awesome video man, thanks for the time you put into it.

[@JordanHetrick]

Thank you so much! It's really nice to hear feedback like yours after putting so much time and energy into this video! Enjoy your new camera!

[@robynsineadsheppard6480]

This video should be required v iewing for all GoPro beginners. It does an excellent job of getting you came up and running in no time. In fact, I'd go so far as to say GoPro should include it in the box with the camera! Thanks, Jordan!

[@DawnAikenNP]

Seriously.. from the bottom of my heart Mahalo.. I am now going to binge watch everyone of your videos... And I just pre-ordered your new book too... I'm leaving for Nepal in 2 weeks to do some climbing and filming and this will get me started!

[@petervfl]

Purchased my first GoPro and have gone down the rabbit hole on YT. Yours is my favorite. Great introduction and not overwhelming for beginners. Also have pre-ordered your book and look forward to reading it. All my best.

[@JordanHetrick]

Hi Peter, Thank you so much for your positive feedback and preorder! Congrats on your first GoPro and can't wait to help you learn more! Have a great day👍

[@michaelthomson5101]

Wow that was one heck of a walk through! I learned a lot.

[@JordanHetrick]

Thank you! I'm glad I was able to help you out! Have fun with your new camera👍

[@TheKidneyAndTheStone]

That was awesome man I just bought one a week ago. I was definitely surprised what option there are after you move the settings. TY I'm going exploring.

[@upster1967au]

Brilliant thanks Gordon from the UK, had mine a week and this VT helped so much, here's to ya Man ❤

[@JordanHetrick]

Thank you Gordon! Cheers

[@solwaramangi6541]

I bought my GoPro Hero 13 Black 4 days ago. Very useful tips and thank you.

[@JordanHetrick]

Great to hear! Thank you for the comment and have fun with your new camera. You are going to love it!

[@davidbailey6112]

Great Tutorial. Thank you so much.

[@tjoelglover]

I'm looking to buy the Hero 13 Black to start a KZbin while in a Semi. I'll be mainly having camera pointed to me while talking (Audio quality need to be good in a semi) but starting with some scenery, maybe pulling into a rest area and resetting on a park bench. At other times I may not be pulling off and just record in the truck the whole time. I'd like to support you here and am anxious to buy your book. But, either with or without, I was hoping you might share some quick setups for that use of the camera.

[@fastwheels195]

Some interesting information I didn't know. I do a lot of video from a handcycle for some cool prospectives. Makes for good 1st person views of marathons etc.

[@JordanHetrick]

Great to hear! Thanks for the comment!

[@mattcram8693]

🤟going to help a lot of ppl with this, watching and following along now

[@JordanHetrick]

Thank you! I appreciate your positive words and hope to help lots of people!

[@Historicallybuffed]

What do you use to edit your videos?

[@MrZACATECANO100]

Thank you sir for much info. Got the hero 5 blk. What you recommend hero 13 blk or action 5pro ?

[@JordanHetrick]

Well, the Action 5 Pro isn't released yet, but I'll be sure to post a comparison as soon as it is!

[@lcindy73]

Thank you. This is my first gopro

[@JordanHetrick]

Nice! You are very welcome. My pleasure to help you out!

[@ThomasGulsever]

very informative Thank you

[@JordanHetrick]

My pleasure! You're very welcome.

[@ridingskiingsailing..]

Ty for your information.. How can we see on the video some information, speed, route, time, g-force ect..?

[@TheMaartian]

I just ordered a Hero 13 Black. It is supposed to arrive in 2 days. We shall see. This is the best of the v13 videos I found. Thanks! Bookmarked. The "book" is Kindle only. Here in France, the listing just says "not available for purchase" (in French, of course). On the U.S. website, it shows a price of $8.95 with a release date of 24 October 2024, with a pre-purchase option.

[@JordanHetrick]

Thank you so much 🙏🏼 That so strange that it's not available for preorder in France. Hopefully, when it goes live, the book will become available for you, as will the paperback edition. Enjoy your new camera- I'm sure you will like it 👍

[@Morphaplasm]

Great Vid Jordan! You explain everything so clearly. I would love a vid on nd filters, I sort of get it but not quite there if you see what I mean? Thanks again for your efforts 🙂

[@JordanHetrick]

You are very welcome! Thank you! Yes, ND Filters are a bit confusing for most people. I have a few videos lined up, but I'll try to make a video for you soon.

[@TomLandcruiser]

I just brought mine yesterday

[@theexperienced5457]

Do you recommend only shooting in the 8:7 aspect so that you can later on change the digital lenses to whatever view you want? Is that best?

[@JordanHetrick]

You can do that for the most flexibility, but most often, I prefer to record in 16:9 widescreen to minimize my editing workflow.👍

[@theexperienced5457]

@JordanHetrick Awesome thanks! Do you have a favorite app for color grading?

[@naveenaggar]

I have gopro 6 black, I used to shoot nature and road trips video more what would you recommend gopro 13 or dji action 5 pro?

[@JordanHetrick]

If you were happy with the Hero 6, I would go with the Hero 13. I posted a comparison between the two on my channel if you want to see more though. Have fun adventuring!

[@naveenaggar]

@@JordanHetrick thanks for the reply, i have seen your comparison video between 2 of them, but I am confuse between the video quality. Please suggest which one provide more crisp and gr8 videos.

[@MsMarlannah]

Thank you! Just what I need since I bought my first GoPro.

[@JordanHetrick]

Yay! I'm so happy I was able to help 👍 it's my pleasure. You are welcome.

[@zzztop]

Me to! But only problem i had was cable that came with it i could not connect it anywhere so i had to buy other kind of cable to charge the battery.

[@advsoni]

Got mine today the resolution is bad is it because I had my lights off or what

[@jonathanfaulds9645]

Never had an action camera before, just bought the gopro 13. This was very helpful thank you. Is there a way to shut off the beep.beep, beep, when you turn it on. I want to video animals. But don't want to scare them off when I turn it on.

[@fm1886]

Yes swipe down for settings, on screen 2 the musical symbol, tap on it and you have high, medium and low volume plus no volume

[@chaprinonaprane]

Would love your help with underwater video and photography settings but your book doesn’t come out til after my trip is over. Could you kindly share? Thank You 😊

[@JordanHetrick]

Hi, I really wish my book was ready in time for your trip. So sorry. In the meantime, check out my underwater tips video. It's for the Hero 10, but a lot of it will still be relevant and should help improve your underwater videos. Have a great trip!

[@chaprinonaprane]

@@JordanHetrick wonderful thank you so very much! Immensely appreciated thank you!

[@ALWResearchTeam]

Hello Jordan, at 14:00 I can see the fps settings. Is 25fps at 16:9 4K 10bit available? I shoot with a sony FX3 at these settings but would like an action camera that can match the settings for ease in post. Wonderful tutorial Sir.

[@JordanHetrick]

Hi, Yes, this setting is available to match your FX3.👍

[@youngkoop]

Hello just got myself a gopro 13 and starting a you tube what else should I do to get started

[@JordanHetrick]

Congrats! Be persistent and produce high quality videos. It can be discouraging at first if your videos don't get a lot of views, but as long as you love doing it, just keep going. Of course, get my book when it comes out because all of the knowledge in there will improve your videos greatly. Im not just trying to sell a copy of the book- I just have received lots of positive feedback about how much it helps. Best of luck to you in your journey 👍 You can do it!

[@piggymoomoo2522]

Great video as always but I’ve been looking for one about the hero 11 mini maybe could you do one?

[@JordanHetrick]

Thank you. I wish I had one for the 11 mini for you. So sorry because it is kind of a confusing little camera.

[@thewatsonstv876]

You are doing such great job with these videos .I'm beginner use the go pro 12 which computer is best to buy for edit my videos for KZbin. When i upload my videos they are bury.

[@JordanHetrick]

Thank you! You will need a computer that can handle editing 4k, so a good graphics card and lots of RAM. I use a new model MacBook Pro and a 27" iMac.

[@TheKidneyAndTheStone]

My issue with the gopro is I can be recording and it just gets a mind of its own and it decides when to stop recording. It doesn't overheat or battery does not die. I like gopro but don't get it. I have a hero 8 black that now turns on and instantly shuts off. Can't get it to do anything. I have just recently upgraded from the 8 to the 13. Big increase. But camera still shuts off when it feels like sometimes

[@jonathanfaulds9645]

Thank you

[@teknikkalar999]

sample gp13 video with gps enable!

[@sonderblogger1772]

I looked but did not see can I get your Hero Black 13 in paper back?

[@JordanHetrick]

Hi, thanks for your message. The paperback will be available within a few days. I'd be happy to leave you a comment here when I see it go live.👍

[@PUBLICVIEWSPH]

How about the 9:16 ratio it is 10 bit and hypersmoth on?

[@JordanHetrick]

Glad I could help you out! Thank you for the comment 👍

[@MartyMcFly160]

I’ve been asking everywhere and no one has given me an answer… does this camper have a quick record feature?

[@JordanHetrick]

Yes, it has the same Quik Capture feature as the previous models.👍

[@RaulShutters]

CAN I USE MY MAX LENS MOD 2.0 WITH MY GOPRO HERO 13

[@JordanHetrick]

Yes, you can. But since that lens was created before the Hero 13, you just need to tap the lens icon and tell the camera it's on there, just like you had to do with the 12. Besides that, it's basically the same lens.

[@RaulShutters]

@@JordanHetrick THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ANSWERING MY QUESTION AND THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR CONTENT LOVE THE CHANEL

[@cryptoaddict79]

Great job

[@JordanHetrick]

Thank you!

[@timbradley5848]

Just got my Hero13 Black. Test shot was crap, it's jerky. Can the 13 be shot in H.264? My Mac IOS is Catalina. Thanks for your great video.

[@Scoot_Uku]

What to do my media doesn’t show up when i scroll up

[@Scoot_Uku]

It just shows a picture what has happened and stays like that until i scroll down

[@JordanHetrick]

I'm not totally sure I understand what you mean? The most recent photo or video does not show up? Did you tap the grid icon to see all of the media?

[@Scoot_Uku]

Awh cmon man i just got my gopro 12 just a week ago

[@JordanHetrick]

Don't worry- the Hero 13 is very similar to the 12. I just posted a comparison if you want to check it out, but you are good to go with the 12! It's an awesome camera.

[@adamtady9288]

⁠@@JordanHetrick i will have to end up keeping it anyways since i wouldn’t be able to return the 12, though thanks a lot for the reply i will make sure to check it out

[@edwinstowinginc.1368]

I have both. U really wont find any advantage in owning a 13.
