GoPro Hero 9 Black Beginners Guide and Tutorial | Getting Started

[@basilboris]

One of the best videos I've ever seen. To the point, accurate info, simple presentation and no waffle. Faultless 10/10.

[@MaryDeanDotCom]

Before I started watching this video, I didn't even know how to turn my GoPro on or off. Forty minutes later, I was expertly recording videos with VOICE CONTROL, and I had set up a SCHEDULED CAPTURE. Truly a tour de force. They should put you in charge of the national curriculum.

Thank you I’m glad you enjoyed it

[@essentialcraftsman2080]

I am digitally challenged, so my son Nate is the tech brains behind our channel. Having said that I just bought one of these cameras on the recommendation of my plumber friend Phil and then have had to figure out how to use it. This has been by far the most helpful tutorial that I have found on KZbin! Great job! I will be coming back for more of this!

[@havanagari8771]

This was extremely helpful. This will be my user guide. I bought my GoPro back in January and I haven't used it much as I didn't find a good user guide on how to use it. I am so happy I stumbled upon this video almost a year later🤣🤣 never too late. So now I'm all excited. Will definitely share this with others. I felt so embarrassed asking people how to use it and they too didn't know or pretend to know but don't share. So this has been God sent. You are such an amazing teacher on this. GoPro should pay you for this.

[@chadk4893]

I opened up my new GoPro, took it out the of the box and thought, "Now what??" This was just what I needed to get started. Excellent beginners guide that covers the basics in a well-organized format. Looking forward to watching and learning from more of your guides.

[@vickifrancis779]

I'm 67 years old. I bought a GoPro Hero 9 Black two weeks ago. I travel a lot and use my iPhone to record short movies to share with a walking group on facebook and my family. I am always worried about losing my iPhone when recording a trip because my whole life is on the iPhone and losing it would be a nightmare. This video has been invaluable. It has taught me how to use my GoPro. I can stop the video and start it again and keep going back and forth through the video to reinforce my learning. When I travel from now on I will leave my iPhone safely locked away. I am off to Svalbard next week full confidence that with my GoPro in hand I will be able to make a great short movie to record my artic adventure. Thank you!

I came across this video the night before a big event. I just purchased a brand new GoPro and became extremely frustrated when there was no information included for its operation. Luckily I was able to find this video and 40 minutes later I was confident enough to use my GoPro The way I wanted to use it. To any one looking to get started, I highly recommend watching this video tutorial. 10/10

[@ramblinrose8]

Your videos are extremely helpful. You teach in a manner which gives just the right amount of information...I often don't have much time in my day and if a video, book, magazine, newspaper article etc. is too long or has too much extemporaneous detail I can't do it. Don't have the luxury. Your videos have just the right amount of information given in a clear and concise, as well as expedient manner. Got my GoPro Hero9 Black in the evening. Was able to film at work less than 3 hours later without making a total mess of it. Kudos and appreciation. Considering my lack of sleep and the fact that I had NO time with my GoPro before your video and after your video I was able to jump in and start filming without frustration. Thank you again. Best.

Very useful video. I just picked one up - my first GoPro. I've been using Canon cameras for 40 years and this thing was completely alien to me. I know it has a lot of features, but didn't know how to access or use them. This was 40 minutes well spent. Straight to the point with a minimum of waffle and all the important points covered. I still have a steep learning curve, but at least this has got me started. Thanks!

Dude, as Anh Nguyen said in the other comment, I have stopped the video be it at 5:50 seconds to say THANK YOU, you for doing such a fantastic job. Well organized, you have thought it through and done an excellent job, specially for someone like me who has never used the GoPro before. I also appreciate how humble you are and not arrogant and wiseass like so many other people who post and spend half the time saying why they are so great and basically talk down to you. I also Appreciate that you don't have any ANNOYING BACKGROUND MUSIC. I hate that soooooooooo much lol. Any how hat to stop and say THANK YOU very very much. I hope good things happen for you in any venture you pursue and generally hope good things happen for you.

[@rockettt7]

Wow. Thank you for such a through and detailed video. I’ve been thinking about getting a GoPro, especially seeing the new 9 ads, but have been intimidated by whether I can figure it all out. Your video has removed my trepidation and I will be ordering this weekend ( including accessories and a power bank). And you now have a new subscriber so I look forward to your library of past videos - hoping you have some/something on editing GoPro content. Thanks so much! Great work!

I visited the camera shop yesterday and saw that they now had these Hero 9. I was shocked as our borders only recently opened, and first thing I noticed was the lovely bag it comes in! If I had the cash I would've bought it, even though they're twice as expensive as the Hero 7 that I was planning to buy. Good stuff mate. Cheers.

I sure wish they'd put some of that same effort into videos like yours. I am grateful you've done such a great job with this video. You should be getting paid by GoPro to do this since they have nothing that comes even close to what you've created.

[@dehoedisc7247]

GoPro has certainly marketed a very capable system of cameras and accessories. The keys to this level of achievement are three : 1) Miniaturization of All components 2) Deciding which capabilities of a comparably priced DSLR to Not include in their teeny tiny cute little camera 3) Then produce the "camera" and see if the general public would pay big for a minimalist item. It worked. And others may have a Nikon D3400 that is 10 times the camera, and, admittedly , much heavier but still manageable. The Cult of GoPro is really remarkable chuckle.
