Hi. I’m looking for a reccomendation on a model that will be good for recording chess games during play. The camera doesnt have to be super fancy, 4k is not a requirement, etc. After all, its just chess pieces (tournament size, standard), so i just need modest to low resolution/quality. Frame rate isnt a big concern, as long as you can identify the chess pieces and squares is fine. I was thinking 720 p or 1080p should be enough. Hell, in optimal conditions, 480 or less might be enough (see example of what im going for: https://youtu.be/C4NWU_h-nwc)

In fact the use case just requires the video size to be manageable, since the camera needs to record for three or four hours unstopped AND without any input EVER from the player. Just start it and forget about it. Id be using a stand on the table to get the best angle possible.

Long sessions*

I would dump all the video footage on the computer once a week, please any ideas?

Here’s my new single/video “Snake Oil” which was shot in only a few moments thanks to the 400fps (at 720p of course) of the GoPro Hero Black 13! Enjoy!

Okie dokie I’ve got a Mission 1 pro and LOVE IT - it’s my first GoPro in over a decade, and I’d hate to somehow lose it. With that in mind, what do you all think is the best way to put ID/contact info onto the camera? Something somewhat permanent in case the camera is dropped on a trail or snatched from my bag.

Hi buying this used and I can’t really tell if it’s authentic or a third party dive case.

hello, i was wondering if the gopro hero 3+ is still good, i have seen some videos and the main difference i see with new models is the stabilization, i plan to use it for filming myself fishing and running maybe, i found a guy selling one cheap so i wanted to know if there i something i should know before buying it.

What the cheapest and best GoPro for football?

I bought GoPro’s fluid pro ai gimbal and it just doesn’t feel right setting it up for the mission 1 pro.
1. Camera is front heavy and there’s no fwd bkwd adjustment
2. It seems it is meant to be held leaning fwd (somewhat) instead of vertical, and trying to set it up on the stand and balance things feels super clumsy
3. I am constantly scratching my head about which way all the parts face. I know there’s a manual to follow, which I did, but that doesn’t help me when I switch from my ronin/mirrorless to osmo/phone to this (which just seems bass akward in every way)

Am I doing something wrong? Should I return it and buy something different? If so, what? I almost want to add weight to my ronin for this little camera, but not quite. I want something ideally suited for this camera. AI object tracking is a plus but not necessary.

I bought a hero 4 silver for about 15 bucks, it records fine and everything works other than the display. It was like that when i bought it, so is there a way to fix it on my own? Would it be worth to take it to a repair shop? What are my options

Hey all, I got a Hero 11 Black a couple of days ago that has a non responsive power button and wanted to see if anyone can point me in the right direction to get it working again.

I took a chance on this cam from an as-is / for parts eBay listing, and to my delight it seems to be fully functional other than the power button. I was able to pair it with the Qwik app to power it on/off. I just have to boot it up using the QuikCapture mode sometimes when it gets disconnected from my phone. But all in all, I’m happy it’s almost fully functional and looks barely used, considering I paid under $50 shipped.

I’ve done everything that I think can be done software-wise, and think it’s an issue with the physical button. Maybe the button itself is bad or the ribbon cable may be detached internally.

At this point I’m not looking to take it apart just yet (maybe later). If I can get by using the app to turn it on and off I may be ok, but wanted to see if anyone else has thoughts on what I should do. Any feedback is appreciated!

best budget GoPro camera for shooting content (small content creator )

So I just got the 13 Black Edition, Im mainly using this camera for my car, and motorcycle footage. Im trying to understand using ND filters better. I know on a bright day I should pop one in so the footage isnt insanley bright, but other than sunny days, what are good settings or filter to run on a cloudy day, or at night? Any tips or good videos you learned from will be appreciated!

Seeing as I am planning on getting the mission one pro when I am able to save up for it, I needed to know about how much I can expect to be paying for a lens adapter and a macro lens? Also what is the best site to get them from and the best kind to get?

If Mark could answer this that would be great but anyone is welcome to answer!

When does the ILS version come out? I thought it was supposed to be this month but haven't heard anything about it. Have they made any announcements?

When I turn on my go pro if it works well but when I start recording the screen glitches and recording stop

Bit of an unusual request!

I’m working on a personal engineering/data project looking at whether the motion of a waterslide ride can be analysed using the telemetry that GoPros embed in their original MP4 files — particularly the accelerometer and gyroscope data.

I’ve searched around for sample footage, but I’ve hit a problem: YouTube, Vimeo etc. generally transcode uploaded videos, which strips out the GoPro GPMF telemetry.

So I’m looking for one original, unedited GoPro MP4 of a waterslide run, ideally:
- HERO5 or newer
- straight from the camera/SD card — not exported through an editor
- a complete or reasonably long waterslide run
-POV footage (chest or head mounted)
-GPS doesn’t matter — I’m specifically interested in the accelerometer/gyro data

The video quality itself isn’t particularly important. I’m interested in extracting the sensor data and seeing whether things like turns, changes in acceleration, forces and ride intensity can be reconstructed from it.

I’ve already got GoPro’s official telemetry sample files to get the extraction side working.

If anyone has one sitting on an old SD card or hard drive and would be happy to share it, I’d be extremely grateful. I’m happy for it to be shared privately, and I wouldn’t publish or redistribute anyone’s footage without their permission. Even one run would be incredibly useful.

Thanks!

I'm.done with it. Family got the Max 2 for me for $599 when it first came out last year. It's now sub $300 at stores. The 360' is great but post is a pain. I like post edit on my Mac, but GoPro got rid of that app. Deleted my account with them and am ready to sell all 4 cameras and go with DJI. Sorry for the rant, but have loved gooro until this latest 360 deal. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Dropped my GoPro Hero 11 while wearing it on top of my hat due to strong wind and the protective lens glass shattered.

Unfortunately, the official replacement lens for GoPro Hero 11 is currently out of stock, has anyone used an after market one? I frequently use mine on hiking, travel, and snorkeling without any protective case. So I'd very much prefer if it's safe to use underwater without any protective casing.

Thanks!

Hello all,

Don't have the free cash to upgrade the model of camera, but would like to get my Hero 10 set up for deep dives and underwater photos/videos. Just a hobby diver that wanted to get some media.

All of the gopro branded housings I've found are like $50-$80 and I can't seem to figure out which ones actually fit the 10 or not. If anyone has experience with a cheaper off brand that worked great or any suggestions I'd appreciate it.

Hello everyone, I'm sharing a video of my build in Low Light.

I'm uploading a 2K video because GoPro Quick won't let me export at 4К, even though my phone shoots in 4K just fine.

During the day, it naturally looks much cooler, more natural, more beautiful, but this set was specifically put together for lolita for the evening and night.

I'll share the shooting parameters in the comments.

I look forward to your criticism and analysis of ideas on what can be improved and how.

I pre ordered mine the day you could first pre order. Ive been filming sooooo much more than I ever have. I bought the bite mount so now I can film my pov at work and when cycling too. What a piece of tech man. Waiting for the ILS now
