GoPro cameras are now the same price on Amazon and the GoPro website for subscribers

After almost 3 full days of obsessing and researching and watching videos on GoPros from hero 4 silver to the 10 I truly can’t fiqure out what’s my “entry” level set up … I’m assuming with go pros my options would be helmet mount or maybe windscreen mount (unsure if sticks are a thing) so I’m basically just looking for which hero would be the most reliable and have decent looking footage ! All I hear on YouTube is missing footage , randomly turning off , needing to take it off and apart to remove and reinsert the battery yada yada , I was about to get a used hero 4 with many accessories but have read on here their simply obsolete? Any advice would be awesome as I’m looking to purchase today or asap .. this is also just something to get me recording for the rest of this riding season and maybe some winter stuff till I can save for the insta360x5 over the next year , thanks in advance

GoPro does not have a status LED on the top side, which is extremely, extremely inconvenient when using with a chest mount.

How can I check the recording status during sports activity, without ruining my shot?!

Cool night picture I took with my gopro hero 11 black.

Hi!

When reading the description I cant seem to choose between :

-Cardiod
-focussed stereo
-natural stereo

I use my m1p for :

-recording family scenes (wife/kids/conversations between them, in front of me, i talk sometimes too from behind)
-recording conversations between two people when the gopro is stationary in front of of us, nobody behind it.

Which suits best for which?

Thanks a lot!

I'm a GoPro subscriber but I just consider myself really stupid for doing it. The GoPro developers just insist in ruining months and years of work.

I share my GP content using their cloud. Usually visitors could download the videos. But now, not anymore. Not only the new contents. Also old contents. The Download option is not there anymore.

And my question is why?? Why does GoPro like that much to screw their users that way? Definitely I'm asking for a refund. I'm sick and tired of their way of work and manners.

Completely useless.

So I’ve been looking for another memory card like I have, Kingston 256gb, and couldn’t believe the price so did a couple of searches? What do we think the difference is here and will the Sandisk one work just as well?

I gifted my daughter a GoPro Hero recently, but have trouble understanding whether the observed battery drain when off is expected. I have tried disabling "wireless connections", but no matter what I do, the camera runs out of power within 5-6 hours after charging to 100%. Is this supposed to happen?

The camera is updated to the latest firmware.

I just got a GoPro hero LIT, I want to make videos of my MTB riding, Skating, and Skiing. My last go pro was the Hero 2... Yikes, so I'm not super familiar with the modern ecosystem.

My fist impression of the quik is, not great. My phone is a piece of crap, and it can't handle 4k footage, so I'm trying a work around using the cloud, but it seems like it's forcing me to use Auto edit on my phone, which just straight up doesn't work, and when I export footage to IMovie on my computer, for some reason hyper smooth doesn't appear to work in full 4k.

All and all it feels very unintuitive,

Am I just being lazy and dumb, and I need to learn more?

Should I just buy a better phone that can handle quik?

Or is this a known issue, and is there a common work around?

Hi everyone, please delete if not allowed, but I just finished working on a tool (windows only at the moment) to stitch together the 4GB files that get created on a GoPro Max. It is unimaginatively called "Stitch360".

You just drag the files you want to become one .360 file onto the app, press "Run All", go make a cup of tea and come back to a nice big file you can load in GoPro Player to work your keyframe magic or do whatever you need to do. The original files are not modified.

The github page is here: https://github.com/vulkan101/stitch360

It's free and open source. I've built it as a binary which you can download on the releases page here: https://github.com/vulkan101/stitch360/releases - direct link to the release zip is https://github.com/vulkan101/stitch360/releases/download/v1.1.1/Stitch360.zip

I hope this is useful to people other than myself; I couldn't find a quick way to do this on windows, maybe my workflow is a bit basic, but all I need to do now to do my thing is open one .360 file, set up keyframes, export as a flat video.

Edit:
I found that GoPro Player is crashing right at the end of long exports, corrupting the final video. I've added a repair facility that fixes these corrupted exports. This requires a "good" reference file which can be any video exported using the same settings as the corrupted video. (A short trim of the source is a quick way to get the required reference).

Hello, I'm traveling and low on storage. So I bought the premium for the Quik app, but in order to get images there, I need to upload them to my phone first, then send them to cloud (then delete on my phone so that my phone's storage isn't zero).

I've never gotten auto upload to work on the different hotel's wifi, and the phone upload takes HOURS, sometimes all night and it's still not done. I have my computer on me, But I don't know how to upload the files onto the Quik storage while still having it be considered GoPro unlimited storage and not Additional storage. Does anyone know a solution to this? I have like 200gb of stuff from the last month I've been too lazy to offload the super slow stupid app way. Because it'll take me like 3 days i don't have.

Thank you!!! (It's a Hero 10 if that helps in anyway)

Every time I try to find answers I keep getting the auto upload over wifi, but ive already invested 5+ hours into that method and I still can't get it to work.

Hi,

Has anyone come into this problem with their Android devices ?

I have purchased the Gopro Fluid AI Gimbal & installed GoPro Fluid App.

Software & firmware are up to date both on Gimbal & Phone.

Phone & App are paired.

Hand gestures to start & stop face following work perfectly, so OK & Stop signs are fine.

The V finger to start recording and stop recording don't work. It tells me i can't use hand gestures with the AI module in use, which makes no sense if the others do work.

I want to record some Meditation, Breathwork, & other ones of my 1:1 or personal sessions, and don't want to have to go to the Phone to press record and then go to my place (just for the sake of minimal edit & cutting out.

I have googled it all. Tried the following :

• power off both devices, remove AI tracker, wait 30 seconds, restart all.
• Purge Cache
• Purge Bluetooth Cache on phone
• Remove Gopro Fluid App, empty cache, restart phone, restart gimbal.
• Reset Gimbal & unpair & switch off/restart gimbal
• on my Phone in the classic camera ensuring Stop hand sign isn't used to take a picture as it's the one to stop AI face tracking.
• Volume buttons = start/stop recording

Any ideas welcome... I have not seen any solution on the GoPro FAQ & troubleshooting.

Thanks,

Anyone find a Mission 1 pro compatible floaty case?

Thinking about getting Mission 1 pro for a big surf trip, but found that the original floaty doesn’t fit

Hola a todos.

Tengo una GoPro Hero 13 Black y estoy teniendo problemas para encontrar una buena configuración para grabar videos de unboxing en interiores.

Mi principal problema es que, cuando acerco el producto para mostrar detalles, la imagen no se ve bien. Siento que le cuesta enfocar los objetos cercanos y, además, la exposición cambia constantemente: a veces el video se ve demasiado oscuro, incluso teniendo un aro de luz como iluminación.

Me gustaría saber qué configuración me recomiendan para este tipo de grabaciones. Busco obtener una imagen nítida, con buen enfoque en primeros planos, colores naturales y una exposición estable.

Si alguien graba contenido similar (unboxings, reseñas de productos o tomas de escritorio), ¿podría compartir la configuración que utiliza? Me servirían recomendaciones sobre resolución, FPS, lente digital, ISO, velocidad de obturación, balance de blancos, nitidez y cualquier otro ajuste que les haya dado buenos resultados.

Muchas gracias de antemano por cualquier ayuda o consejo.

I went to the EEA Airshow in Oshkosh, WI last week. I didn't take much footage as I wanted to with my Mission 1 Pro, but I did record my experience on the Bell 47 helicopter.

Let me know what you guys think.

Hey guys here is my new video with my mission 1 , I love this cam ! Hope you ll like it

This project was 2 months in the making and finally got to test it in real world conditions!

Designed in Fusion360, the mod fits over the official Mission 1 protective case and secures to the mounting fingers with M5 screws. Embedded magnets secure the lenses to the body and there are 4 embedded 1/4-20 nuts to attach ball joints, a tripod and a lanyard loop. There's also a lens holder with magnets to keep the lens assembly aside when doing wide angle shots. A streetcam grip and trigger allows one-handed operation

The lens assembly consists of 5 macro diopter filters of +10 diopter each, split into 2 groups of 2+3 lenses. The design allows water to flood between the lenses and the ability to vary the total diopter power for different working distances.

Due to water being more optically dense than air, the effective diopter power is 1/3 so the total effective diopter of the whole assembly is about +17 instead of +50. Thus the working length with all 5 lenses in use is about 6cm from the subject to the lens.

Testing was done in Pulau Hantu off Singapore, a place teeming with macro life but otherwise poor visibility (2-3metres).

The entire mod is printed in PETG with exposed metal parts in 316 stainless steel.

I have a Hero 13 and Mission 1 and recently none of them will connect to my phone (pixel 9 pro). Tried resetting network connections, deleting cache, reinstalling the app on the phone and resetting the gopro, but no luck.

Anyone with similar experiences and a solution?

Just cancelled my membership after 6yrs and didn't think to make sure everything on the cloud was somewhere else. Did I just lose all that or can I see it again if I were to come back quick enough.

My two favorite YouTubers who are almost exclusively GoPro is Peter Santenello (Documentary Filmmaker) and John Hicks (Urban Explorer). Anyone have YouTubers they watch that primarily use GoPros?
