Except using Quik app, any other way to be notified a new firmware is available ? Some email notification, rss feed etc ?

Thanks.

Hello,

Today, i tried to update my hero 12 camera, everything was fine until i updated it. The camera screen now flickers crazily! No it’s not the flicker rate or anything, the update broke my camera!! I contacted support and they told me to manually update, same thing! What the hell do i do ?

Yeah, saw someone use a Karma case as a gopro and accessory case a bit ago. So I bought a case and made it, well, full. Karma case

Things that are hard to see are adjustment mounts, Max lens mod, a macro lens, ND filter lenses, the Remote, and bit mounts, plus the three-way, volta, and handler.

Right now I have a Hero 4 Session that needs to be replaced for a number of reasons. I mostly use my camera for surfing, snorkeling, hiking, and occasionally skiing and other random adventures. I see right now on KEH.com right now that I have a few options

Hero 9 in EX+ condition for $125,

Hero 10 in Like New condition for $169,

Hero 11 in Like New condition for $199,

Hero 4k Brand New for $179

From my research the hero 10 is far better than the hero 9 but I can’t really tell how much better the 11 is compared to the 10. And is the newer though cheaper 4k even comparable to the 10/11?

Hey Gang,

I'm new to go pros and don't much about them. I'm looking to get a go pro to film some stuff for YouTube and tiktok(travle vlog stuff) but also would like it to be able to shoot family stuff as well we go to the aquarium alot (low light setting). Also some slow mo ideas I have. Can go pro do all this? If so which when should I be looking at? Hoping to get a older model to start off with to not break the bank.

I found someone on Facebook Marketplace selling their GoPro Hero 4 for $20 CAD (about $15 USD). Is this a good deal or should I skip out?

I'd like to get a digital camera for my son for Christmas. He is 5 and it would be great to get him something sturdy and nimble. I thought the go pro might be good but I have no clue and have done no research!

There are some models on Cex for under £50. Would they be half decent?

Edit: was not expecting such hostile questioning of my parenting from this question. We live in the countryside and spend plenty of time outside, hence wanting a tough outdoorsy camera.

I've done a bit of research now andthere is a VTech action cam which is like a go pro for kids which fits the Cex price bracket above. So if anyone else reads this with the same question you're welcome

I am new to GoPros and I tried saving money by buying a cheaper brand. I noticed the camera only records 5 minute videos on 4k and 60 minute videos on 1080p but only if its “connected to power source”.

I need 2 hours of recording. These are my questions trying to record 2 hours videos on ANY resolution: “is it normal for small POV cameras to only have enough batter for 1 hour?”

“I would like to record 2 hours on 4k( i know thats a lot), is there any small POV camera that does that?”

“My only option right now is to swap batteries, but am i crazy for thinking that people would always record really long videos on action cameras?”

Hi! First time gopro user. I tried to transfer my videos to my laptop but all the videos have no image but there's audio.

I can play it back in the gopro itself but not on my phone or laptop.

Vid resolution is 4k. How can I lower resolution with saved videos? Or the resolution is not the prob?

Having a GoPro 12 modified for full spectrum by Kolari Vision. I know I need an IR Illuminator but not sure what wavelength is best. Looking at Amazon I see two options, 850nm and 940nm. Ideally, I would like something that is the least detectable to the human eye, which is 940nm. I would also like the ability to illuminate a subject at least 100 feet or more away. Not sure what to purchase and here is a summary of what I read:

1. The GoPro's can detect 940m but are more sensitive to 850nm.

2. 850nm is more detectable by the human eye then is 940nm.

3. GoPro's react better to 850nm.

4. 850 nm will provide more illumination.

If anyone has any experience with this or suggestions, let me know you thoughts.

Maybe this is unique to me, but I took my Hero 11 out in 23F temps today on a hike. Ball head on the 3-Way kept popping out. First time this has ever happened, never thought it would be an issue, but makes sense. After it happened a few times I figured it was due to the weather and the ball itself self was shrinking just enough in the cold to pop out. Maybe I am wrong, but just wanted to share my experience today. My GoPro took a few tumbles as a result. Luckily it just fell into the snow so no big deal. I wanted to give my fellow cold weather friends a heads up so they don't potentially lose their GoPro while skiing or some cold weather activity where you might not be able to retrieve it so easily.

I am someone who goes hiking and camping a lot, I am unsure on which to buy for my activities.

I’ve just finished a shoot using a GoPro Hero 7 Black as a second angle, I checked the camera throughout the hour that it was recording and everything looked good. When I hit the record button to stop recording everything looked fine, the LED flashed as normal. Only when I went to operate the camera again did I get the ‘Repairing File’ message. I left the camera to do its thing and it looked okay.

I then checked the file in camera and it was only 1 minute and 36 seconds long (it was recording for an hour) and the SD card capacity shows an almost empty SD card. When I opened the files on my Macbook, there is only the 1 minute 36 seconds file and plays fine but just cuts off.

Is there any way to recover the rest of the clip or find the rest of the data? It seems really strange that the 1 minute it recovered is absolutely fine but the rest has just vanished completely - no other corrupt files or anything.

I have recorded for way over an hour before and did a camera test the previous night and it ran absolutely fine so this is a first.

Any help or suggestions is greatly appreciated.

just transferred some files over and now suddenly my gopro wont work, any help?

I don't recall what's being told about formating microSD card. Alright first use, installed latest GoPro firmware + GoPro Labs, full charged. What should I do exactly (formating??) about microSD card ? How to do it ?

Thanks.

Hello all, I have GoPro Hero 10 and Snowball ice mic , I want to record videos (educational) , how to connect mic with go pro, as it has usb

Looking at buying a used go pro hero 3 silver off market place with a bunch of other things but I doesn’t come with any batteries. The guy said he just charges it with a usb charger and uses his phone to control it through the app. Is there any downsides to that? Should I purchase a battery from a third party?

i don't know ANYTHING about this but my mom gave me her gopro hero+ and i tried to connect it to my computer but it just display this message ? what do i do i've tried everything and i don't have an SD card reader

I opened a case on Monday, they agreed I should get the credit, asked me to check Spam, etc, told me the emails went out on Dec 1, but I didn't get one. I contacted them the same time yesterday and again today and the answer is always to check back "tomorrow."

First agent on Monday told me 24-48 hours and today, at the 48 hour mark I'm told, "But I will be honest with you it is actually 72 hours, it will take 24 to 48 hours if we keep on following up every ticket however as of this moment we still haven't received any updates yet with our team."

I'm starting to feel ripped off.

Just purchased the Hero 13 which will be used for in-car track day footage-- mainly POV/Helmet mounted.

Going to be picking up the ND Filters as without them and the ability to add Motion Blur, the footage always looks like you're going 15mph around the race track.

Question I have-- Does the Max Lens 2.0 allow you to induce the same amount of Motion Blur that otherwise gets produced through ND Filters?

Same question goes for their new Anamorphic Lens Mod as well.

Recently got a hero12 to try and capture a timelapse of a construction project. I want to take 8 to 10 photos (one per hour from 9 to 5). Ive downloaded the latest firmware and use the qr code generator but cant seem to get my intervals to go beyond 120s.

I'm using GoPro labs to override the 15 min pause with Hindsight mode. I noticed that if the camera is in 10 bit mode I can't seem to use external power but if I'm in 8-bit mode I can.

Are any of you running into this issue? Fixes that might work?

I’m a mountain biker who wants to start getting some footage. Been looking at the little HERO, but haven’t heard any first hand, honest reviews. Need a mount to go on a full face helmet. However, is the bite mount okay?

Anybody with any honest opinions please comment
