GoPro Hero7 Silver Unboxing, Setup & Beginner's Guide

[@CanadianVlogster]

KZbin messed up the audio on this video. I have enabled CC but it won't work because the audio isn't there. The audio starts at 3:00. I contacted KZbin for this issue months ago but they never got back to me. I apologize for the inconvenience.

[@billcooperc-luke573]

Do you know whete the link to the app for android is? I can't find it anywhere.

[@CanadianVlogster]

They've renamed it to Quik. Here's the link: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gopro.smarty

[@cowboycoltschickenfarm1196]

It's all good

[@MarkgarrettGarrett-gt2hc]

Can it live stream

[@sylviescopazzo2445]

Great instructions. BTW..I bought this camera because it's supposedly waterproof as in I woudn't need to use an underwater casing for it. WRONG. Water got inside the lense on my first dive in the ocean. I read on a forum that I could get the water out by leaving the little side door open for at least 24 hours and it worked.

[@CanadianVlogster]

Thank you and thanks for the feedback. I have pinned your comment so others are aware. Did the video turn out okay given that water got in the lens? Was the camera fully functioned after drying? Any video quality or audio quality issues?

[@chunkymomvlogs7220]

I Wish I would have seen your comment before buying. I Had mine for 1 day and got condensation around the lens. I will be returning mines asap. Sucks because I can't even record on it due to the blurred screen. Everything functions on it though.

[@CanadianVlogster]

Now you know 😊

[@sylviescopazzo2445]

@@CanadianVlogster sorry I'm only now seeing your response. Honestly I don't remember it probably came out fine because the water was floating below the actual lens so it probably came out okay. GoPro was very good with their response and asked that I send them back the camera in order to get a new one. I decided to let it dry out instead of going through all that hassle.

[@sylviescopazzo2445]

What a bummer! I have to tell you though that after the water finally found its way out and I started using an underwater casing the camera works great. I also learned on KZbin that if you put a piece of paper towel inside the casing it avoids all condensation!

[@lars5727]

How can I change, wind noise reduction? Or wide lens.. Or is this not possible? Cinematic video etc..

The GoPro Hero7 Silver automatically stabilizes your footage. It is in the user's manual found here: gopro.com/content/dam/help/hero7-silver/manuals/HERO7Silver_UM_ENG_REVA.pdf

Do mount on bike handlebars does it have to be in the hard case

[@CanadianVlogster]

The hard case has the mount built into it. That's how this camera is designed. You can't mount the camera itself.

[@dionisiskapralos5955]

On time laps, you can choose the seconds right? For instance: 3fps 5fps 10fps

[@CanadianVlogster]

No, it's only setting is 0.5 sec interval. If you want options, you'll have to step up to the Hero7 Black.

How do you charge the go pro hero 7 silver and would you need anything els for it to charge like to buy separate

[@CanadianVlogster]

There's only one way to charge it using the USB-C port next to the microSD card since it doesn't have a removable battery.

[@TheDollPlace]

Ahhh, I still can’t get my sd card set up!!! It just keeps saying no sd card when it’s in! I’ve formatted it! I don’t get it

[@CanadianVlogster]

Technically you should be unable to insert it the wrong way so I'm guessing it's in the way it's supposed to be and you hear a beep. Have you tried a different SD card to ensure the card isn't faulty? Lastly, I'd ensure that the camera has the latest firmware.

Today i got my gopro 7 silver, but when after gps setup, after that its ask me for install the gopro app on your phone, thn after follow up instruction to connet your camera, We must install the gopro app, n there's no back n skip option too, i m lil confused

[@CanadianVlogster]

Leave the camera on that screen and install the app on the phone or the tablet. When you launch the app, it will detect your camera and complete the setup and that screen on the camera will disappear.

[@issurxozo]

Is there a mode on this camara for instant replay? like be able to hit the record button to capture the last 5-10-15 minutes of whatever the go pro was recording? would be awesome because i use that on my pc for game footage. Its recording 24/7 but when i press the button it saves the last 5-10 minutes of what I did so I got the cool move recorded and only 5-10 minutes of it instead of contant full videos to pick through. lemme know thank you

[@CanadianVlogster]

Nope. Nothing like that.

How can I increase brightness in go pro siver 7?. It looks so dark when i record a video in the evening.

[@CanadianVlogster]

I have sold the Hero7 Silver and am using Hero7 Black now but I googled the issue for you and apparently the Hero7 Silver needs bright light for shooting and there's not much you can do about making videos in the dark.

[@blarspars8155]

Just got one today but it keeps saying no sd card when I put it in and then it will finally read it so I try reformatting then 10 15 minutes in it stops and says no sd card again

Make sure it's a high speed Micro SD card. You will have that problem if it's not high speed.

How and can you transfer videos to an iPhone 11?

[@CanadianVlogster]

Download the GoPro app. Connect it with your iPhone, checkout my video on how to do that and once you launch the app, it will automatically check for videos on the camera and notify you. If not, on the camera tab, you can tap view media and import that way.

Apologies for the delayed response. Not sure how I missed it. I can't say for sure but the SD card being inserted shouldn't have any effect on the pairing process. I have a pairing video on my channel because it can be confusing.

[@campocat]

how do you down load to the iMac ?

[@CanadianVlogster]

Install the Quik app from the GoPro website on your iMac and then connect the camera to the iMac using the USB-C cable and you should be able to import the videos.

[@campocat]

@@CanadianVlogster I'm downloaded but this is new out of the box do I need a card or is it ready to down load?

What does NO SD mean?

You need a micro SD card in your camera to store videos and pictures. If you haven't already, you need one. Please watch my video again and you'll understand where the micro SD card goes.
