Thanks for watching! - Jak na to + styl
Just did this after never really exploring what my GoPro can do, just using the presets.
Very excited to give it a whirl, heading up the mountain shortly- Just got a new 128gb SD card too- I'll report back!
Just did your setting in my cam, thanks bro awesome vidoe
Thanks for the helpful tips👍
Cheers for the advice just got my hero 8 today from using my old hero 4 and heading out on the trails tomorrow
You're going to love it!
Thank you! Very helpful!
Glad it helped! Happy riding!
Great video tutorial. Thanks a million...
Glad it was helpful! Enjoy!
Great video, thanks 👍
No problem! Hope it helps with your footage!
Yeah!!! Someone In Seattle area doing settings. Makes me happy because I don't have to mess around with the white balance for my place
We know what it's like riding in the Doom & Gloom of Seattle 😂
thank you so much for the video really helped me out understand the protune settings.
also would love to see a post production video.
Glad it was helpful!
I have some videos being edited right now! I'll keep you updated.
Wow this sitting really helpful I loved it...
From Bangladesh
Glad it was helpful!
Great video sir. I just picked up the 8 at Costco for $269. Going to run these settings and I love the idea of the pre-set for biking. I had no idea.
That's a steal!! You're going to love it. Let me know if you're ever in the PNW!
Great video, I'm from the Seattle area also. With the exception of white balance, do you think those settings work for most of the year around here or do you switch up say between summer and late fall? Also, it gets pretty gloomy in the trees here in do you make any changes for that?
I think these settings will hold true throughout the year aside from adjusting white balance based on your riding conditions. If you're riding through dark and gloomy trails, I recommend raising the shadows in post-processing. Let's get a ride in sometime!
Thank you for share.
Thank you for watching! Appreciate it
Great Channel Keep it up !
Thanks, Mouhammad! Appreciate you checking out the channel!
Very useful video
Thanks! Was one of my first videos which is crazy!
Excellent video bro 😃👍 I subbed..
Thanks 👍 Hope you're enjoying the riding season!
Thanks mate
Happy to help!
Nice video!
Thanks!!
Nice
I was searching for this Video as I am Going to strat cycle blog with go pro
Thanks for coming back for the video! I will be posting an updated one here soon when I get a new GoPro!
Any sample video after this setting , i need to see the result as a mountain biker .. so good video btw thanks :)
This is awesome feedback...... Can't believe I missed that
good vid but can you us how to edit though after you record footage
awesome video. i should be getting my hero 8 tomorrow can't to see the difference in my videos.
Nice! Enjoy it and get out there and ride!
Great Video! I am trying to decide between the Hero8 or the MAX for mountain biking. Which one you recommend?
This is tough.... I personally think the Hero 8 is best for POV footage. You can get some really cool shots with the MAX, but I personally don't want to play around with the 360 footage to get the right "shot". Hope this helps!
That was a fantastic walk through I followed step by step I just baught go pro 8 specifically for my own MTB Adventures I am using a San disc Extreme Pro 128 GB A2 micro SD will that be ok for half decent footage 2.5 hours it says I’ll get that’s plenty Australian conditions are normally pretty sunny
Thanks for the feedback! Appreciate it. That SD card should work great for capturing your content! Enjoy the warm weather down under!
Hey hey im normally using the preset activitivity one when im biking because it is shot at 60fps and so smooth! Will check ur setting maybe will leatn more!
60 fps looks good too! Let me know how it works out for you!
Thanks for the video... Would the settings you described be the same for someone who does not edit like me? I need settings that will work, look nice for MTB may not be perfect but have a nice clear video. Thanks
There is one thing I would change if you don't edit in post production and that would be to set your GoPro sharpness to medium. Hope this helps! Thanks for the comment
you will go places my friend
Appreciate the kind words my dude!
Excellent Video, my next purchase is a Hero 8 tired of messing around with gimbals and complicated set ups.
I had the same idea. Had it a month, awesome bit of kit
I see you were rocking the Evo SS? You're going to love Hypersmooth on the Hero 8!
Great video! I have a question about uploading to CZcams, how do you do it? Because when I upload it looks terrible despite also using the 8 and shooting with the same settings.
Thanks, James! I initially struggled with uploading to CZcams as well. It has to do with how you "Render" your project. I use Davinci Resolve to edit my videos and render with the ProRes option. Let me know if this helps!
Me i dont having a problem uploading video on youtube you can checkbit to my channel i have a 4k 60fps
If you upload in 1080p and are not a big channel they will downgrade the encoding to make it look like shit. uploading in 1440p is the only way around that.
Hey man, great tutorial. What do you think about 2,7 k and 120 fps? In my opinion 24 fps is a little slow. Thanks!
Oh also super view, that's why I'd use 2, 7k
Thanks Chris! I would only use 120fps for slow motion video. A good rule of thumb is to use 24 or 30 fps for video at fullspeed playback. If you are trying to get slow-mo, 60 and 120fps are great!
@@MTBCoop I see! I thought it was like with video games where more fps result in a smoother videos. But I've done some research and 30 fps really seem to be more suitable for gopro videos. Thanks man!
Hi! What resolution do you process in DaVinci and what resolution do you render for youtube?
@the monsterolas I shoot in 4k and process the footage also in 4k. Rendering was tricky to figure out. I have been using ProRes, but the files are much bigger than h.264.
Great video very helpful. My footage looks amazing but when I go edit on Davinci Resolve the playback is very choppy. How do you get around that?
Thanks for the feedback! Sounds like your computer might not be able to handle the rendering. What computer do you use? It is while your footage is in the timeline?
I have a build with a rtx3070 and Intel core i7. I think my computer should be more than capable to handle the rendering
What would be a good setting for a RC car I’m going to mount it on a RC car??
Hi @Nitro RC8! I would recommend the same settings in the video, but up the frame rate to at least 30. Hope that helps!
Whats the difference between Hypersmooth 'On' and 'Boost'? Both of these are options when the Wide lens type is chosen, so I don't understand your point about SuperView being the only option for Hypersmooth.
Thanks for the comment! GoPro has two different stabilization options: Hypersmooth Boost and Hypersmooth. The Hypersmooth Boost option crops in and at the time of this video was only available on the "Wide" lens selection. With the recent GoPro firmware update, Hypersmooth Boost was added to the SuperView lens. Hope that helps clarify!
Hello, I just got my Hero 8 recently and I do POV handcycling (I'm a paraplegic wheelchair user). So nothing major and extreme like your downhill MTB. But what would be the best presets for a "noob" who doesn't do any post editing whatsoever to get decent quality for general youtube videos? I do like night riding as well. I like to film in 1080p, smaller file sizes, I'm going to try your 24 fps now, see what it looks like (I used 60 fps before). I kept all your video settings, but set bit rate to low for smaller file sizes since I film in 1080p anyway. But what are the best audio settings for someone who will not do any post editing (and who likes his voice to be heard because I do commentary while riding)? I also use the protective housing case and film from my helmet.
Thank you.
Hi Sangi! Thanks for watching the video! I would recommend a preset that keeps it simple. Start with 1080p and 24/30fps. If you are riding at night, I'd recommend keeping your ISO and Shutter Speed at Auto (this will help with dark conditions). Regarding Audio, I recommend a windslayer which you can find on Amazon. If you purchase a windslayer, I recommend keeping Raw Audio off and Wind off as well. Hope this helps!
Cheers, everything set as you said, but ISO you can only set manually, there is no auto, 100 minimum and 6400 max?
I keep my camera in the protective housing (since my skydiving days), I love that armour so much, I will never keep my camera "naked" so I can't attach things like "windslayer" :)
I meant keep ISO as high as you can!
@@MTBCoop Thank you for the advice :)
Nice video
Nice content
Thanks for the kind words :)
just turn on hyper smooth...done!
Hey, I had a question, on my GoPro Hero 5, I can follow all these settings, but the thing is at 4k my stabilization turn off because it's an older model, would you recommend staying 4k 24fps super-wide, or moving down to 2.7k 30fps super-wide?
-Thanks!
Hey VK! It all depends! I personally have switched over to 30 fps for my footage. I would recommend shooting in 4k at 30fps. I only do this to easily swap between footage on my phone and GoPro. Take a test ride and record both and see what looks better to you 👍
@@MTBCoop Thanks!
Dude, I live in Seattle to🎉🎉🎉🎉
Hell yeah! We are lucky to live in a great mountain bike area!
@@MTBCoop have you ever been to Dockton Forest on Vashon island?
in terms of your actual rig, what does that look like? Chest mount, filter, housing cages, etc?
Hey Carlo! I just use the GoPro chesty with the actual GoPro mounted upside-down.
what about on a handlebar mount on bike but not mountain biking just a bike ride
I think that would work great! Especially since it won't be as bumpy of a ride.
Best setting to amplifier sense of speed?
I’d recommend filming at 24fps if you’re looking for speed!
Yes but where to put it and how to put it on the bicycle
This is fantastic feedback! I use a chest mount and mount the GoPro upsidedown.
@@MTBCoop Oh!! Thank you :) !
@@MTBCoop I have a hero 7 with the gopro chesty. I find unless I have the chest mount uncomfortably tight. I seem to get very shakey footage coming off drops or jumps or sometimes just rough terrain. Do you have any suggestions to fix that issue ? I get great footage when I setup my chin bar mount but I don't always want to wear a full face just to film.
Nice dude, hits all the checkboxes for a MTB preset! I get not wanting to color grade, as it’s a pain sometimes; though a pain I enjoy. Luckily, Resolve has some of the best grading tools & for GoPro footage, it never takes me more than a few minutes to general grade & depending on lighting, not too much polishing. The 2nd Loam Ranger video shows all the scopes to use, if I remember. That’s pretty much all I run off of too, when grading GoPro footage. Sub’d & keep pumping out content!
Thanks Focal! Glad you enjoyed the video. I see you're in the Seattle area. Let's get a ride in someday!
The MTB Co-op heck yea! Excited to get back on the bike after all this.
But with 24 frames u can’t get boost does that effect the filming that much
If you are wanting boost, I recommend you use 30 frames per second. That also looks great!
Just shot an hour of my bar and ground with the chest cam. It was set to low
It happens to the best of us! One trick I like to do is draw a line on my Chesty and GoPro attachment to line it up perfectly every time.
“This camera setting screen might look like a beast “ *laughs in doing astrophotography on a dslr *
#troll 😆
As soon as somebody goes 4k 25fps remember that video gonna be crap af
For cinematic yes but for mtb not even close...
What FPS do you like for mountain bike footage?
Still the same crap.
This GoPro has been giving me problems as of late!
