Which of the five have you been guilty of?! Let me know! Also, what other questions do you have that are GoPro related? Any other videos that you want to see coming up soon?
SUPER HELPFUL!! I make chin mounted POV MTB videos to recap trails, and capture the fun we're having. Your tips will help me situate myself at the tops so that the riders I'm filming talking will be front lit...sun behind me.
Your tip to "treat it like it's a big camera" is also a reminder to move my head slowly from person to person as riders are talking. Some of the gold from the rides is in the funny conversations, and I have to fight my instincts not to turn normally. The issue is...now I have "Blair Witch" footage, and I can't the transitions out without also cutting out bits of the conversation. No bueno.
I also need to work to get more "off the bike" footage and different perspectives, which relates to your "five second" clip minimum.
Also...one tip I got years ago might help with your "stabilized walking" shots that you were doing by holding the camera cupped in your hands. If you turn the stick upside down and let the camera hang down, and hold it out in front of you at arm's length, that will help stabilize it just by utilizing the physics behind gravity wanting to pull straight down on it.
Thank you for pointing these out, David! The Gumby Mount will definitely come in handy for tip #5 😉
I definitely have to work on treating it like a bigger camera and the 5 sec tip. Thanks for the informational videos !
Awesome tips david, i have been following all of your gopro tips and recommendations videos and it has helped me start my own youtube channel. Thanks to you i am using all of the right tools for the job of filming quality videos for my audience and with this video i now know what i need to do to use those tools to get best filming techniques to make my gopro footage look as captivating and professional as possible when im filming. Love your work mate keep it coming and ill always watch.
Your tips are a blessing- thanks Dave! I’m more familiar w Ansel Adam’s zone system and I suck at GoPros.
Guilty all five. I do need watch your GoPro settings video again. Keep all the tips coming mate. I need all the help I can get. Thankyou.
Man, as long as you guys are watching, I'll keep making them!
You’re the man David. Great tips! I’m guilty of several of these. I definitely treat it like it’s light and small. I don’t hold my shots long enough. I use the wrong settings. I’ve gotten lazy with unique angles.
Great tips, Brudda. going to your settings video next. Thank you for sharing
I’ve definitely been guilty of all of these! I have tried to slowdown when using it and it does make a difference. Always good tips, cheers!
Hi David, thx for the tips...and to spot common mistakes we all do/did 😉
Im always learning and i thought i was across most of the settings. However i went underground canyoning in Wales and ran 60 fps and a quick shutter. Footage was useless. Made a video but it was so dark, the processing made so much noise but learned a valuable lesson that day. TBH i think even a big camera would have struggled. It really shows how amazing the human eye is! Fanks David.
Thank you for the tips & keep the video's coming you definitely helped me and I appreciate you and your work 😊 👍.
And remember " Be a good human "
Love it Erich! Thanks for watching!
I have been watching your stuff for a few years and it is just killer. Thanks for the well thought out edits
Great video as always David. Yes I recently realised the 5 second tip when I realised my footage was too jumpy. Also love the idea of thinking of the go pro like a larger camera for panning.
So right too about unusual angles you have inspired me. Shame it’s an overcast wet day here in the uk 😂
Bro I just watched your video last night on which settings you prefer and usually use for your shots. I tried it this afternoon with great lighting and it came out amazing.. I can’t wait to try them during night time for my night right using my motorcycle. Thanks brother
I knew you'd go inside your van. You should have shown the Osmo Action 3 inside your van with the same settings. Good video, of course everything is subjected to expectations and personal creative goals.
Since I follow your channel my gopro stuff is much better. My main struggles continue around lighting and creative camera placement. Your settings videos always offer great information.
Lighting is always the tricky one! In a dream world, there would always be a very thin layer of clouds in the sky and the sun would perpetually be about an hour from sunset🤣
Thanks for sharing this very informative video cheers 👍
Great tips David, that's exactly the way to use a GoPro and get cinematic like footage 🔥. I don't treat it as an action cam and people are always surprised on how good my videos look. But i must admit i am guilty of the last one, i actually forget that it's so small and that you can literally put it almost everywhere and get really unique perspectives with it. My angles are pretty standard, i'll take the note to work on getting more creative angles on my next videos ✌ Cheers!
For sure so many options for such a tiny little camera!
@@DavidManningvlog It's a great tool to always have with you and it's fun to shoot with, that's why i love it so much 😁My Sony cameras must hate my GoPros, they get much more action😅
Great video as always - wise wise words. I’ve been busy for a while, but I’m back on a binge.
Great tips!
I learned that 5 seconds thing from this video 😅 Thank you, video was very useful to me personally 😊
For me it's mostly not taking long enough shots and then in editing... Well you know how it goes. Thanks for the tips
Gahhhh, that moment in the edit when you realize your clip isn't long enough for the edit you're trying to make! The worst!!!
@@DavidManningvlog absolutely 😭
Thanks for keeping it simple!
Great tips as always. One of the tricks I use when backpacking or hiking, because the terrain is so rough and uneven, is to attach the camera (using a snapmount and a GoPro pole mount) to one of my trekking poles up by the grip, this can be done with a selfie stick as well, then turn the pole upside-down so the camera is on the bottom, then hold the top of the pole, thus "Floating the camera on the bottom. I use this method for low angle shots, but you can raise up your arm and create chest high shots as well.
I am not guilty of any of those things because I watch David Manning videos...
Nice work, that's a solid way to get some sweet shots!!!
I've done that off roading in my 4x4 so you get a sweet shot from almost ground angle at speed. You actually get to see the wheels in motion, etc. Very cool!
Hey David, Where did you get the mount and extension arm that you are using at 8:07? Great video by the way! Saved for future reference.
Here you go!
Suction cup: amzn.to/3DyYOMX
Magic arm: amzn.to/3DS7D5R
@@DavidManningvlog Thanks, Man!! Magic arm on order.
Great videos!!!
Great tips. I shoot in 60fps so I when I mess up and don't hold my shot, I can at least slow down in post...
Excellent tips. I'm very guilty of the fast jerky camera movements.
For sure one of the most common! Because they're so dang small, it's actually harder to move them smoothly
@@DavidManningvlog I 3D printed a rig with a handle that helps a lot.
Good day David, just a quick question about the Snap mount. I purchased these after watching your review video. I have the GoPro 11 and i purchased the handlebar mount from Go pro to mount my camera to my trekking pole for a thru hike next March. The problem I have is I cannot get it to tighten down enough, as I walk it slowly starts to creep down until eventually hanging upside down. Have you run into this problem and if so, how did you fix it? Thank you and congrats on the new baby.
Great video
Hey David, I make rock hunting videos on beaches. The GoPro is excellent for getting smooth videos of walking. It's also good at keeping the horizon pretty level which is really important on a beach with a built in level in the background. After scanning the horizon, I go in for a shot of a rock I just picked up, but the GoPro is awful at close ups. Is there any camera that is good for self leveling shots and also close ups?
Yeah, the GoPro has about a 12in minimum focusing distance, which means that anything closer than a foot won't be in focus. Have you looked into a Sony ZV-1? That's a killer camera for what you're doing! Not quite as stabilized as the GoPro, but for macro shots of the rocks, it would be awesome!
@@DavidManningvlog Thanks, David! I'll check that one out. When it comes to buying a camera, I find the choices overwhelming.
I have been guilty not holding a shot for at least 5 seconds. I have had to slow down some of my shots to make them longer while editing.
I just got a GoPro to film powersports and I am guilty of all five. But, in my defense, I was aware somethings were wrong and I could do better. Thanks for the tips.
Looking to invest into a GoPro for a family vacation to Disney. Not planing to record while on rides but mainly walking around park and taking fun videos. Would a GoPro be best for that if so what would the best settings for that.
Great video as always!
I’m most guilty of #5. 1,2and3 I have under control! 4 sometimes gets me. So I’ll watch your video on settings again.😊
I have a couple of questions about mounting it on the outside of you car and driveway 60 mph. Do you have specific settings for this? Also, as a motorcycle rider I have been hit with some nasty stuff flying up from the road. Do you worry about the lens being scratched?
Hahaha! Solid points Ray! I don't have specific settings for outside the car, but as for the rocks kicking up, I always keep an extra lens cover on hand. Back when I used to ride a motorcycle, I had a few lens covers get cracked by rocks. A quick cover switch and you're back at it! You can pick them up on the GoPro site for like $20
I just realized you’ve never done a full van review/walkthrough video. Would love to see how you and your family use it and what you like/don’t like about it.
🙋♂🤦♂Yup. Guilty of all 5 at some point or another... and not just with the GoPro. The drones, my Canon R, the big expensive camera one of my bosses lets me use from time to time. I am always reminding myself of these no matter the camera.
Took me halfway through filming to realize I was just saying tips on how I film with my big camera🤣
@@DavidManningvlog funny how there really is so much crossover these days.
David, Delighted to see you good sir
Delighted to see you as well Abhijeet!!!
David back in the day you posted a video on the proper way to export videos for RUclips but now that the new Premier pro 2023 is out do we still wanna go through MEDIA ENCODER? Because it sure does look a whole lot different than from your video back you're video back then are you ever gonna do a new one and updated 1? Just curious
David, those were all really good tips.
I use your settings and my video colors look amazing.
But they are overheating my camera when I shoot inside the car (with the air on). I am trying no battery and no battery door (have external power). Any suggestions on a fast and good memory card?
I've switched over to DiVince Resolve as an editor.
The main cause of heat on these cameras is frame rate. Higher frame rates will heat them up quick, so stay down in the 30fps range to get the longest life out of them👍
Him: "In this video I will prevent you making mistakes with your Gopro''
Also him: Grabs a DSLR
I’ve definitely done most of these! Great video! It must take you forever to shoot. That was like a Casey Neistat level of camera angles. 😂
He's the goat!
Great video David. I'm guilty of the 5 second rule.
As am I! Hahaha!
My personal favorite is when I take off my ND filters and forget to restore the shutter speed 😅
Hahaha! Little bright, huh?!
@@DavidManningvlog who needs highlights? 🤣
Back to the Rode Videomic Pro? I switched to the Sony EM…R2D2 (whatever it’s called) and tried the Go II but I find myself missing the Pro again. Thoughts?
I'm back on the VideoMicPro+ train. The differences are mostly preference, but I just love the audio coming out of this thing and a the end of the day, ya gotta like what you're making!
@@DavidManningvlog Same. Doubtful the audience notices but I do.
Thanks for the tips! Def need to slow things down when panning the shot. Also, need to stop making my hiking videos look less like a FPS video game! Did you use the GoPro for audio? If so, what Mic/Lav were you using?
Audio on this one was the DJI wireless mic system. Super convenient!
Guilty as charged on all counts.
In my defence however, a lot of the time it's a case of grabbing footage when I can (often on top of my stills setup) and the situation/priority means it comes second.
You don't want to hold on a race car going away from you for five seconds when there are ten more heading towards you!!
Taking on board the advice to practice some stuff over the winter before next season starts!
HI What selfie stick are you using
I just got my first one and the first thing I realized is the 5second tip when looking at my footage
What lavalier mic are you using if I might ask? I am using a Boya but the last two videos I've done, the audio messes up for just a second or two after I've been recording a few minutes....sounds like I crawled in to an aluminum can...lol Not sure what causes that, cheap mics? These were like $149 on Amazon. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you!
Yep I’m that jerky camera guy , 5 seconds steady is the way forward 👍
New to GoPro here. When you put it in weird locations, like the outside of a car. Do you just let it record continuously and then pull over to stop the recording?
David did you grade any of your go pro footage in this video?
What tripod/selfie stick did you have your GoPro on snap mounted in this video.? Thanks again alway the giving us the quality info!
That's the Insta360 invisible selfie stick. Fantastic action cam pole! You need the 1/4-20 to GoPro feet adapter to mount it as well
@@DavidManningvlog excellent! I think I can manage that. It looked really good on that stick. And the stick just looked comfortable
@@DavidManningvlog was yours the 2 in 1 with the tripod or just the original?
david! it's ya boy Matt Jackson I just got the hero 11! I've always shot in 2.5k with my hero 9's but i'm thinking about jumping ot 4k, 10 bit & high bit rate. Is that going to add a whole bunch of extras size to my files? :(
The 10-bit will for sure grow your file sizes, but the footage is going to look soooooo good🙌
Guilty of shooting most in the backlight hehehe man can I get a free lut like the one u used in this video? Really dreamin to have one
For the GoPro footage or a7Siii footage?
I need to check my settings
the link to the settings video is not in the description below...
Thank you! Adding now👍
@@DavidManningvlog NP, went to your channel to find it. TY
What Mount do you feel the most safe using for mounting on car or dashboard?
I use the suction cup mount you see in this video to mount it to my windshield and get out the windshield or into the car shots
@@DavidManningvlog is it listed under the clip?
Need a link for that suction cup please
@@Parrothed5150 Here you go!
Suction cup: amzn.to/3DyYOMX

ALWAYS PROTECT YOUR HIGHLIGHTS!
That should be a t-shirt!
All of them. I will try my best
your PolarPro Apex Base links in the description lead to a 404 error page ~ cheers.
Many thanks🙏 All fixed
What are those sunnies? Me want.
Blenders👍
@@DavidManningvlog purchased - thanks for that (just because I didn’t want to spend that money, but now I have 🤣)
@@DavidManningvlog Which model is it? Is it the Nocturnal? Thanks!
I am so bad about getting in a hurry and not holding the shot long enough.
Number 5
All of the above
It happens to the best of us
Still waiting on that paramotor content! Stop wasting time and start the amazing journey!
I'm feeling like this would quickly become an obsession. It's for sure on my list, but not quite near the top just yet!
@@DavidManningvlog oh it will! It’s life changing. Haha can’t wait for when you do in the future! The epitome of freedom
Mainly guilty of not using the damn thing often enough. Gotta get out more often.
5 of 5 🤣
Hahaha! All of us at some point!
Guilty of all of them.
Damit I know All this stuff😂
Insta360 tripod holding a GoPro....hmm.....
First
That was shockingly fast!
@@DavidManningvlog 2nd...maybe? 😜
Haha love your videos this will be so useful
