Favorite use case for 11 Pro active cooling outside of gaming: extended outdoor 4k60 recording.

What's funny is we had a Hero12 Black but someone forgot to charge it. I wanted to test the phone anyway though and it's so nice to just have the files directly on my device and straight to the cloud. GoPro has the WiFi link and stuff but it doesn't beat instant

Filming storage for tournaments?

Storage is cheap - get a 256 or 512 GB card and don't worry about having enough space. For reference, I shoot at 4K/30FPS on the drone and use about 30-40GB per game (pausing between points to save editing time). You can check out a chart like this one to give you a sense of how much you'll need for

Unintentionally raced the CTA brown line

Gopro Hero 12 Black. The footage looks much better than that clip demonstrates. Using free Streamable so it's 720p resolution and compressed to hell.

New Diver GoPro Setup

I’ve done a total of eight dives. I’m using a GoPro Hero 12 Black with the clear protective housing and the floating hand grip. I only have dived to about 60 feet and my videos all look amazing. Both of us should be focusing on improving our diving skills instead of making sick edits but this works

Best place to get a video camera?

Been doing a ton of recording with the GoPro Hero 12 Black this year and it really does a lot. It can shoot in 1080 and 4K. Also a bunch of settings that you can tinker with - e.g. time lapse, night shots w/ high exposure, etc. The media mod upgrade has a pretty decent mic, and the standard one it c

Best Way To Record?

I feel this a lot. You don’t want to miss the moment just to record it. Honestly, the issue isn’t really the gear, it’s how you’re using it. If you try to capture everything, you’ll always feel stuck behind your phone. What helped me was setting simple rules. I only take a few short clips at each pl

My little buddy, normally a bit of a "my pace slowpoke" 😂, wanted to run today 😁

GoPro Hero12 Black! First time using it and absolutely loved it. I have the camera on a strap around my neck, and then I put my backpack straps over that to keep everything snug & no bouncing.

Camera for intra-operative teaching

Check out GoPro HERO12 Black or HERO11. It has 4k support and live streaming via WiFi or HDMI should be easy. Of course you’ll need a head mount for it.

How long does GoProHero models last in water environment?

Looks like your GoPros are getting baked. If they’re spending 99% of the time out of the water attached to the board, they’re probably sitting in direct sun cooking most of the session, plus they're black, and then repeatedly getting splash-cooled. Can you cover them with a towel or something when n
