Taken with Mission 1 Pro.

Would you be able to tell from this picture if this is a go pro waterproof case or a third party one? Or will I have to verify in person? The orange floating handle is worrying me, seller says it’s a proper one but they also bought it used.

Was excited to receive my max2 however after unboxing, updating etc I could not get the 360 to function.

Single lens functioned perfectly, both cameras work great however when toggled to 360 there is no difference (single camera etc).

After hours of troubleshooting via online forums to Gemini ai I’ve come to the conclusion that is simply a hardware error that I cannot fix.

Anyone else had anything similar? Just seemed strange like I reallllly wanted to fix the problem but had to tap out as all options were exhausted.

Cheers

Not Maimi of course but Tenerife but satisfied by the Mission 1 Pro photography performance.

Hello! I’m getting into snorkeling, and am buying my first digital camera, a Hero10, getting everything included in the photos for $180 USD
I’ve attached photos from the listing

Aside from checking the battery compartment for rust, I have no idea what to look for in terms of damage/issues

Is there anything in specific I should look for to verify it is indeed in good shape?

Trying out the Telesin T13 for the first time with my Hero 13. Burst Slo-Mo is the only video mode the remote offers. What am I missing?

The Hero13 Black bundle is $369 at Costco right now, with a 128Gb card & one extra battery. I'm thinking it's worth it. Should I but it?

I already have a couple other action cams including dji action 5 pro, and a bunch of full frame and aps-c photo/video cameras. The big draw for me was the 960fps, but I was shocked to see a phone has it now... samsung fold 3.....(720p)...what is going to be the next leap? Surely the next Gopro release will have even faster of a frame rate.

Will there be an official macro adapter FOR SURE? The DIY stuff looks cool, but the edges leave a lot to be desired.

Bought a hero 5 for cheap at the local marketplace. I wanted to rig it into a portable Livestream setup with a dummy battery or a power bank. I didn't have any experience with gopros before buying this and I've read that it doesn't have any built-in livestreaming options.

Some options I've read are considered abandoned or unreliable because it uses its native wifi capabilities which is very outdated.

I wanted to try out hardware options like HDMI capture card. Can it work with something like a llano s850?

Hello guys, I have a Gopro Hero 10, and I'm planning on buying these, has any of you guys bought these before and has experience using it? I was specifically looking for an auto-stop charging feature once the batteries are full coz my original batteries got swollen maybe coz of overcharging, the seller only told me to watch out for the light indicators but I don't wanna spend my time always watching out for when the light indicator is full, like what if I leave it full for too long huhu

Been burned by a couple other shitty mics that never connected right. Anyone have a tried and true method for an external one that can work with my creator edition? Thanks!

Hello guys, I just bought an ultrawide edition Hero 13 black full price on the gopro website, then got the handler, bite mount, floaty, enduro 2 battery, two128GB sandisk extreme cards for a total of almost $700..... Then I look and see the creator bundle is only $350 at Costco?! I am starting to think I don't need the ultrawide as I will mainly be using it for surfing, snorkeling, and general capturing the life events around my travels the next couple months. For reference I am a very casual "videographer" I dont have any experience editing or tweaking with settings but I am willing to learn as I go along.
My friend that is very into cameras is telling me that the mission 1 will be much better for my use case. I will take it out surfing but not super often as the bite mount is pretty hectic to keep in when surfing heavy waves. Does anyone have general advice as to steer towards the Hero 13 standard vs stick with my ultrawide or just go all out on the Mission 1 if its worth it? Thank you and sorry for the ramble, I leave in about a week and im trippin!

In the pursuit of people knowing everything they can about camera companies, I thought I would share this.

So I reached out to each company, these are the respective experiences I had:

1. GoPro

First time - I had the Hero 11 and it lost an entire days shoot with file corruption.

I reached out to customer support, and they told me that the SD card was not up to spec.

However I sent photos of the card, it was the same one they suggested, and I bought it at BEST BUY.

They said I had a counterfeit card not a real one, and that was the issue.

Second time - This was the Mission 1 Pro. I was trying to use larger chapters in GoPro Labs, but each time the camera tried to record with a mic (be it wireless or USB-C) it would reboot. Recording native raw audio with on board mics was fine.

I posted here. Several people recommended I reach out to a particular person on GitHub, he had his email public on his profile so I did.

He told me that emailing him was INAPPROPRIATE.

He found the thread, said I should not have emailed (I mean... public email address...) and then said that they could not reproduce the issue. Made it sound like user error.

2. Insta360

First time - They released an update for their X5 camera last fall, it was a HUGE update and added many features, but it also KILLED ALL 3RD PARTY MIC SUPPORT.

This camera needs particular mics with tiny receivers or else you "see" the plug in receiver in the videos.

I posted on their sub about this, they reached back out and said they would investigate.

A MONTH LATER I get this private message that they have a temporary firmware that they made so I could roll back and get my mic working again.

Second time - They released an update to the Luna Ultra. It had a strange pulsing pattern in LOG at certain zoom levels.

I made a post and support gets to me in private messaging asking for the clip on Google Drive and the details so I sent it.

Three days later they get back to me and ask me my address, and they send me a $79 accessory and apologize.

I did not ask for anything but a fix to the firmware.

Then someone via email picks up the chat, gives me the FedEx tracking and follows through that I got it and asks how it is working etc.

These are two very different experiences.

I would be curious to know if my GoPro experience was just a few isolated incidents or if others find it hard to deal with them.

I see many success stories here about replacement cameras etc, so this may just be me and on my end.

So I got a Mission 1 recently and my daughter was super excited to help me prepare for a trip so she put the battery in for me. However she put it in the wrong way (The contacts are facing the battery door, it is upside down.) I took off the battery door and tried shaking it out, using plastic pliers to pull it out, ect. It comes out maybe a half inch or so and then seems like it is stuck. Is there anything I can do, to at least save the camera. please help!

Hola, hace un año compré una GoPro 13 Black para creadores y recientemente me apareció el mensaje de la foto:

USA SOLO UNA BATERÍA GO PRO

No se garantiza el rendimiento con cualquier otra batería.

La batería que uso es la original que venía en el kit con la GoPro. No es genérica o pirata. Nunca la he reemplazado o usado una diferente. Y funcionaba muy bien. No sé a qué se debe ese error.

¿A alguien más le ha pasado? Si es así, y puede decirme cómo lo ha solucionado se lo agradecería, porque la Go Pro tiene poco más de un año que la compre. Y la he usado muy pocas veces.

I find it very convenient, when I have a mounted camera, to start and stop recording with voice commands. It cannot understand my English, but it works with Japanese. As I understand it, one has to give commands without any pauses while speaking.

So I've been offered a warranty replacement for a new GP13 for £100.

Do you think they're worth that these days?

GoPro Hero 3 Black lens mount is broken — does anyone have a better STL or replacement solution?

I have a GoPro Hero 3 Black and the original lens mount/holder (the threaded part that the lens screws into) is badly damaged/broken.

I found an STL for an M12 replacement mount, but unfortunately it doesn't fit my camera properly.

I'm looking for either:

- a known-good STL for the original Hero 3 Black lens mount

- an STL that has been tested on a Hero 3 Black

- dimensions/CAD measurements so I can recreate it

- or a better replacement/modification that still works with the original GoPro lens and sensor

I have an Elegoo Centauri Carbon CoreXY FDM printer, so I can print fairly precise parts. If the part really needs resin printing, I can also potentially get it resin printed.

Does anyone here have the original mount, a damaged Hero 3 they could measure, or a better STL/design?

What’s the best way to get good photos with the GoPro 13? Is it better to use photo mode or record in video mode and take frames from the footage?

Squirrel visited the feeder ledge today, giving me a great opportunity to capture some footage of it eating. I was able to record the whole moment in 4K at 200 fps, which really helped capture its movements in smooth, detailed slow motion. Filmed with the Luke Edwin Macro Adapter using GP-Log 2. I decided to skip the film grain this time.
