GoPro Hero (2018) Beginners Guide | Getting Started

[@reneegriffith2375]

I bought my Go pro back in 2018 used it on a trip, then it has sat until now. Decided to finally start using it and had no clue where to start. Found your video. Now have an idea how to use it. Thanks for the video. I even got the date and time set right.

[@agc33]

I bought the Gopro Hero 2018 today. I had absolutely no idea how to use it, and I came across your video whilst charging the battery. Your video is absolutely brilliant, such detail. Thank you very much for taking so much time to help others.

[@lynnmiller5940]

This is the BEST video for learning how to use the Hero 2018! I use it often and am still learning new things on this site every few months. Thanks for posting!

[@qwertycanada007123]

Perfect beginner's guide. You have covered everything from scratch to the advanced level in beginning . easy and simple way of explaining. Cheers mate....... from : India/Malaysia

[@TexasCoachMike]

Well done. I just bought one of these as my first GoPro, mostly to be used on a tripod to film soccer games. The wide view allows me to fit more field into the frame, plus the durability will be great when there's a lot of sand / rain / dirt...ect out at our games. I feel like I'm fully informed on it now.

[@orionsbelt3332]

Thank you for taking the time to make this video. This is my first action camera and I freaked out when I realized it did not come with instructions. You answered all off my questions and concerns. Thanks again

[@AirPhotography]

That’s great I am glad it was useful 🙂

[@rayjohnson1871]

I bought a 2018 from a friend to use with my hobbies. This video was so helpful and explained well, Thank you!

[@pamelafayesmith1130]

I was given my first GoPro for Christmas and found this tutorial very useful and informative. Thankyou for taking the time to put this together

[@polatiger4765]

Now 3rd and very best GoPro Tutorial. I needed this earlier though :( Bought my first GoPro today. Good job Mr Air Guy!

[@andythedm3347]

Recently got one of these and absolutely love it. So much fun recording stuff. Highly recommend it if you dont need 4k or anything too fancy. Works great for hockey videos

[@prince7918]

Can I use underwater without any cover.??

[@Zed-kc7cr]

How long does it record for on a single charge

[@ulyssessait]

well, it actually can do 4K. u must already know, by this time

[@noahkavanagh5836]

Just update it to the hero 5 black

[@ryte2chlz]

I got my first GoPro today. This is a very useful video, better than the tiny manual came in the box. Lemme explore !!!

[@jowodiyreviews9005]

Hi from Australia, love your channel. I watched your video when I got my gopro hero 7 black, which I love. Very informative and inspiring, I decided to start up my diy channel again after a number of years. You have great tips and techniques.Thanks again.

[@Robby334]

Thanks so much without your clip I would not have been able to set mine up - The instruction book is far too small to read what you did was very much appreciated.

[@jeffreymark6545]

Thanks.. I ordered my Hero 2018 last night and it will be my first one.

[@richmpiblue5220]

Purchased this GoPro Hero 2018 model two nights ago (which comes with a free 32 GB microSDHC), suction cup mount, bag pack and A GoPro casey all from the official GoPro website. This guide is awesome and will help me loads once my stuff arrives. Thanks!

[@AirPhotography]

That’s great I’m glad you found it helpful thanks for watching

[@richmpiblue5220]

What I mainly wanted a GoPro for was to capture in car footage for my channel of my summer car I only take out the garage in good weather. That being said, Is the new 2018 Hero the right move? It seems it from your video but some other videos say otherwise...

[@Valerie-cj2ek]

Good stuff. Mucho graz. Love the detail you go into and the vid lighting lets us see whatever on the camera you are talking about. Much easier to understand than words in the manual.

[@elsie9434]

Great beginners video! Good details not boring the best video

[@Daddy0s]

Outstanding video! - i had received this GoPro Hero back in 2018 for Christmas and never opened it because it was misplaced. We moved and found it.- I was hoping to find a video that would walk me through since it's my very first GoPro. Am i glad i found your video sir! Not only is intuitive, but also entertaining. You certainly have a gift for teaching and i thank you. I have become your fan, and subscribed to your channel because of this great video. My sincere gratitude sir.

[@AirPhotography]

Thank you

[@steverau1029]

just received GoPro HERO 7 , watched beginners guide video and highly recommended for beginners like me , to watch before you try to use your new camera ! thanks

[@sharonpeters1391]

Really handy very informative I think I now have a fair idea of what I can do and I have been able to set the GoPro up - can't wait now to give this a go!

[@edkamensky6684]

Excellent video! I am researching GoPro cameras for the first time and found your video VERY informative! Thank you!

Normally, these videos put me to sleep, but this one was so informative I couldn't pull away. GREAT info, your voice varied so you didn't lull me to sleep, just a great video. Now I will go to look and see what else you have on here!!! Thanks!!!

[@michelleweber270]

Great tutorial 👍🏻 I just got my first GoPro for my 10th birthday. Looking forward to watching your videos.

[@davidbaines7014]

Thank you my friend. Great video. Very good explanation of all the workings and attachments of the go pro . You made it easy for the likes of me whose not up on modern technology. Thank you.

[@rivenchuaho9110]

Thanks bro. Just gotten this product as a father's day gift from my daughter and your video tutorial here helps. 👍

[@AirPhotography]

That’s great I’m glad it was helpful

[@59Timk]

This was a great video. I just bought the 2018 Hero. Im not a big video or camera user and don't plan on uploading any video's. I am taking flying lessons thought and this will be a great learning tool for me to debrief after flights. Thanks man.

[@nytejag]

Thank you sir for this video. It comes WITH ABSOLUTELY NO INSTRUCTIONS!

[@foleylaplume]

Just got my first GoPro Hero 2018 for Christmas and I'm looking forward to using this when I go on motorcycle rides and vacations. Your video was very informative and I will check out your other videos. Thanks for the useful information.

[@carlojohnlacson9289]

No timer for 2018 sir?

[@foleylaplume]

@@carlojohnlacson9289 not sure what you mean by no timer.

[@carlojohnlacson9289]

Great instruction video with quality production such as lighting and sound recording.

[@pennym6601]

Loving this. lol Coming back from the stone age. My last camera is from 11 years ago. Defensively going to be getting this one. Thank you for this cool video.

[@jeremycarr3920]

Thanks for video, just got hero' 18 good to know how it works, getting waterproof case as last session died of water ingress.

[@Toob41]

Thanks. What a superb, professional instructional video. GoPro should hire you.

[@cathycrist9995]

Just watched this whilst setting up my new Hero 6. I can confirm my GoPro voice activation responds perfectly to your voice , telling it to do stuff and then switching off 🤣📸

[@traceymarsden6684]

Thank you for making this video. I'm new to GoPro and was stumped removing it from the packaging. lol! Now I feel ready to get started.

[@-NateTheGreat]

This is some pretty great stuff as always. I plan on skipping this model and going for the 6. You just can't go wrong with that buttery smooth image stabilization . The hero session is going to be my secondary b-roll camera

[@bookofjohn1623]

WOW THANKS A LOT, JUST GOT IT AND OPENED THE PACKAGE VERY SIMLIAR HOW YOU DID. AND THEN TRIED TO READ THE DIRECTION PACKAGE THAT WAS WITH THE BOX AND EVEN WITH A MAGNIFYING GLASS COULD READ THE VERY VERY FINE PRINT. A VERY WELL PACKED VIDEO THANKS .

[@loloneal3476]

Great video.. this is my first GoPro very informative thank you!

[@Chewygsxr]

Great Video Mr, I just picked one up yesterday at Best Buy on sale for $149. The instruction manual was unreadable because the print is so small. You answered all my questions to the Tee, know I can’t wait to start talking Photos and videos.

[@synobia104]

Thank you I bought my first go pro camera and I'm still trying to figure it out. This video is VERY helpful. Thank you!

[@tevinabeysekera6038]

The voice control is very useful. I can now turn on recording when the camera is on a helmet.

[@smashed2352]

Was thinking about getting one of these. This was exactly the type of info I was looking for; very comprehensive. Many thanks.

[@bradfordpalmer2298]

Thanks for sharing. Just what I needed. Going diving in 4 days.

[@wildlifesafarisjohannesbur3378]

Great video please the stabilization button ,when it’s bright is in ON or OFF thank you

[@jimbo4176]

Great job with the video. Clear clean and precise.

[@dustyroads5409]

Thank You I just picked up my first Hero, you saved the day.

[@andinopolini9817]

Good stuff! But how do i transfer everything to laptop or my android smart phone? I just paired it up on my wi fy.

[@jimweagant8920]

Great video thanks i have been thinking about getting the go pro 2018 to see if I like doing videos

[@Rubiodiamante]

A great introduction to using the GoPro. Thank you for sharing it!

[@andyfrost4657]

Excellent video, thanks for your effort in helping other users with there Go Pro’s

[@MichiganWildcat]

excellent video, I learned a ton just by watching. Always wondered why everyone loves GoPros. Starting to see why!

[@MUV4TRUK4]

glad I saw this before opening the box, knowing me I would of got seriously frustrated with the packaging. Great vid cheers

[@Jani.16]

Very useful. This is my first GoPro and your video helped me a lot. Thanks.

[@AirPhotography]

That’s great I am glad it helped. Thanks for watching

[@ryantattoli8152]

Hi Mate Just purchased this GoPro.Thanks for uploading this video, its really helped fast-track everything. Can't wait to use it for snorkeling at Great Barrier Reef!

[@AirPhotography]

That’s great I am glad you enjoyed it. Enjoy your snorkeling 🙂

[@kennethtaylor2444]

Bought this as my first gopro and the video was great. Thank you. I have read that it is possible to update this to the hero 5 black through a firmware update. Is this true?

[@Scottdrruryiphone]

Thank you very much for this video. I struggled horribly just with the unboxing and their website was opaque. You're right. It did take a lot of force to remove the casing. I was afraid I was breaking it. Your video really helped, thank you.

[@hoppingbunyip]

Thank you, at last soemthing that makes sense. can't wait to play!

[@justjameka7961]

Great easy to follow video! I just got one today and I cant wait to take it on our family trip to the waterpark!🏄🏾‍♀️ Thank you!

[@AirPhotography]

Nice… Enjoy your new camera

[@19adam87]

Thanks for this excellent video. Can you stretch the battery life to 3hrs by putting it on minimal settings and turning off audio?

[@timcass5759]

Awesome walk through of the Hero 2018! I did not receive a manual, with small or extra small print, but a question if I may. If the GoPro app does not work with Windows would you recommend just uploading the data by removal of the mini SD card? Thanks

[@arciefan]

Excellent tutorial. Any chance you have one on uploading to you tube or your desktop. And how to delete from your memory stick? Regardless thanks very much!!!

[@joshq-rk5hf]

very well explained, can you show me under water test without waterproofing case

[@MsMaliceMaus]

Just ordered this. It's mostly for video and attaching to the doge for memory making. Plus concerts. This will work for me. Later I may upgrade.

[@AirPhotography]

Nice… Enjoy your new camera 👍

[@דודוליטמנוביץ]

A beautiful and concise view Thankes !!

[@sumguy00]

thank you, this is a great video I come back to it all the time when I can't remember how something work on my gopro. I only use the gopro once a year if even that lol

[@AirPhotography]

Thank you and glad you enjoyed it

[@jewelsbug927]

This was amazing! Thanks for the great education on this new camera.

[@AirPhotography]

Thank you I’m glad you enjoyed it

[@jackstonington3772]

I know nothing about Go Pro and this was a fantastic beginners review, thanks. The only thing I wish is that the audio were better, almost every sentence trailed off to the point where I could not hear it but still great info. Now I need to find out the differences between all the models, Go Pro 5, 6, 7 and so on. I had no idea they had so many. This one is a 2018, but it has no model number..., another learning curve I guess. OK, thank you.

[@AirPhotography]

Great I’m glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the feedback. That has been brought up before and it is definitely something I need to work on 🙂

[@matthews8097]

Thank you bro!! I literally spent like 2 hours trying to figure out how to get it off the stupid box

[@sparechannelplssub9170]

Zachary S hahahahahaah

[@lexilove4683]

Amazing video thanks for the heads up

[@shirleyc285]

Excellent video . Been trying to decide if i should get one of these for months, think i finally will though. Currently do my videos using my Android but by the end of the day the battery is nearly dead and im left without a phone! Will definately invest in the spare battery and charger too!

[@JakeszeeChannel]

Really informative! Made my swing vote on what to get. Thank you so much and keep up the good videos!

[@AirPhotography]

Thanks for watching and enjoy your new camera when you get it :)

Haven’t purchased yet still doing my homework. Thanks to your video I’m a little more informed. Can you tell me how the Go Pro works with a Mac?

[@punshanta3027]

Can you please tell me whether the smart remote is compatible with gopro hero(2018) or not.Or can you show us a tutorial video. Thanks

[@mariannesalazar7426]

I just got mine ... excited !!!

[@marcorivera16]

Thank you so much for the video. I have a couple of questions. I'm getting videos while flying. What's the best setting to have during bright days? I've been trying and I can't see anything outside properly. I would like to have a good balance. The other question is about the best setting for night flights. Thank you.

[@trishstanneart3508]

Great video! Question how do u pull a picture out of a video?

Great video and great explanations. Super useful thank you!!

[@Jimbobd421]

I’m wanting to get started with a go pro. I’m looking at mainly getting video while we ride with a group on motorcycles. Would this be a good one for that or should I go with the go pro 7. Lot of great info with your videos. How much recording time can I DL. Would it hurt to leave go pro plugged into cig lighter on bike while recording. Thanks again for your video and info.

[@colemant6845]

Just starting to explore the features on Action Cameras.... Curious though that there did not seem to be a Zoom feature on the GoPro Hero 2018? Is that because this is an entry level action camera? Thanks, and good instructional video!

[@2katzrool]

thank you for this because the manual is too tiny to read!
