Test test....short vid

So I picked up a Hero3 plus. Not sure if I'm gonna keep it or gonna pass on a good deal to someone else.
Just a quick vid to check the quality.
Looks like you need to watch from Vimeo's website to see HD.
On G-drive you can select HD on the bottom lower corner.
Vimeo vs. Google drive?

Looks good... did you do any post, or is it just raw? Was Protune on or off? What settings were you shooting with?

 

Uhhh....dunno? lol I just cut it and put some music on. Prolly shot 1080. Then final output at 720? It was about 140 mb. Sound right?

 

I have found that for 1st person POV stuff I like the medium field of view. I usually shoot 30fps, but sometimes 60fps if I intend to slow-mo it later. Protune off will make the color pop more if you are just going to load it up "as-is". If you intend to do color correction in post, then Protun on is a good option.

Lot's of great tutorials out on the interwebs if you get bit by the bug.

 

NICE scottay! I cleaned up the post, take a look what I did...

Is that Pig Pharm? I only been to Pig Pharm once with you, but it looks familiar.
Like the vid bud! You won't need lights for a night ride as bright as those gloves are, ha ha!

 

Just down and dirty quick tips would be great!

LOVE the ridgeline stuff - especially with the sun position. The rest, meh...

Just being honest. (waving smiley)

Good place to start... unfortunately, this is a hobby where there just isn't much in the way of quick. But understanding the basics will take you quite a ways.

 

" GoPro has added about 137 different filming options so you’ll never really be sure if you’re using the right mode for the activity/film job"

Confidence inspiring! Thanks for the link.

 

scottay, I just dicked around with the settings until I got good clarity and called it good. The GoPro editing software is basic and kinda sucks in regards to text but it's free and pretty easy to use...

 

I like it!! It was just missing a rossage move: Going over the edge.
