  • Have you just forked out ~500 bucks on the latest GoPro, only to find that your footage looks nothing like your favourite CZcamsr’s and all you can hear is wind noise? Not to worry, I’ve been using GoPros for over ten years! And in this video I’ll show you how best to set yours up for action POV footage such as motocross, mountain biking, skiing/snowboarding, car racing, motovlogging and so on... This tutorial applies loosely to all GoPro models; from the original HERO, right up to the HERO10 Black… but you’ll only be able to follow it word for word with HERO7s and higher. All you’re going to need before we start is a mic sock, some double-sided tape, scissors and a knife! Some patience wouldn’t go amiss either…

    Dude, you’re a saint. I did everything with the settings and wind reduction and the difference is insane, the 2 videos on my channel are before I found this video and after, it’s like the first was filmed with a cabbage in comparison.

  • @twowheeledadventuresuk2739

    I’ve used that huge GoPro mount that the GoPro is mounted on then it’s new in the box, cut it down to size, stuck some padding on the back so it doesn’t scratch my lid ad grips better, and then put 4 slit holes in it so I can zip tie it to the mouth bit on my helmet. Works a treat. I tried one of those Dango designs gripper things but as soon as it get knarly or your blasting whoops it just moves as the spring isnt strong enough. Generally use the media mod on my GoPro but that is a pain often as you have to take it off to change the batteries, but you can use it with a powerbank and run it all day. The media mod does give good audio, but ads bulk. As you aren’t allowed GoPros mounted to your person in the UK when racing most of the time I’ve started using my GoPro 360 more, mounted to my bars, and the audio on that is pretty good, the wind noise is bearable, a pig to edit tho when shooting in 360 mode. Thanks for the tips 👍

    awesome video i especially was impressed that you crafty and did something on your own instead of blindly and immediately throwing money at 'problem' huge thumbs up for that 👍🏻👍🏻
    it was one year ago so maybe sharpen filter changed/updated, but i was skeptical that it would worsen image quality in higher setting, did quick checks myself and sure enough image is objectively better on higher shaprness level, dont see need to set it to anything other than high. Its very good filter btw, its not typical simple effect, it doesnt create any artifact, and i had to do quite a zoom on images to see it working, so its rather subtle even on hight, personally i wouldnt mind even one or two steps higher sharpess setting to play with.
    as for iso artifacts in low lighting theres no good answer imo - its choice between seeing close to nothing(lower max iso) or seeing something with ugly noise(higher max iso) - thats my conclusion after some testing in bad lighting condition.
    overall super solid video 👍🏻👍🏻

    • @Angry-Lynx
      @Angry-Lynx Před 10 měsíci +1

      also im not so hot about setting higher bitrate. again, did some a/b testing and from what i can see theres improvement in those higher res (2.7k+) but its about 5% better image quality for DOUBLE file size sooooo...
      imo its better to set it to standard and use high bitrate only if aiming for absolute max image quality/ doing cinematic shots, if you can afford double weight. For shots on bike etc i dont see it being worth so much more data

  • @danhopkinson2811
    @danhopkinson2811 Před 11 měsíci

    regarding the chin mount, with my Fox V1 they have a Y shaped ridge in the chin vent.
    I found an old gopro tripod mount which are just round with I believe a brass M4 thread in the bottom/back.
    I got an old plastic bottle of gun oil which was virtually the same diameter as the mount and cut both ends off making a cylinder , cut 3 small notches in it so it sat over the Y shaped ridge flush against the wire mesh. and then drilled an M4 hole dead centre of the Y.
    I filled the tube with a product called MILLIPUT which is a 2 part putty that when mixed sets like a solid plastic, and pushed it on to the helmet over the Y to mould the shape, then let it set.
    cut it to the desired length, drilled a hole through the centre, screw a bit of m4 rod in to the mount, slid my moulded piece over the rod and used epoxy to glue the mount to my moulded piece.
    then just secured the mount to the helmet by poking the rod through the small hole I drilled and fixing in place with a washer and nut.
    the mount couldn't spin or twist as it was moulded over the Y shaped ridge and the mount was barely even visible

If you have any suggestions I would be into hearing what you got to say.

    Great vid Ash, just bought a Go Pro 9 and now just trying to learn how to make vids eith good audio. ( bought nedia mod and Rode wireless go mic)
    My main stress and overwhelm with these cameras is dealing with that GoPro quick app.
    I have no idea how to edit properly which is overwhelming in itself for a newb, just want to be able to film short clips and stitch together to make decent transitions.
    Lools like i need the tge Gopro connect key for Android and mac.
    Thanks for the vid mate you explain it all well. Can you make a vid about transeffing content to Android and Iphone and editing inntge Quick app please. Just a suggestion.
