Nice to see the M55 track. I also run this category and will probably run the WMOC in Spain next year. I have 3 questions about the video: 1) What kind of camera do you use? 2) How do you make sure that the video is so stable and doesn't shake? Do you do it with post-production? 3) What tools do you use to create the map with the GPS track and then bring the map and the video together?
Hi, I use an old GoPro Hero8, but I'm thinking of upgrading, as the battery life span is so short with this camera. I'm happy you find it stable, because I had to reduce the stability as that also reduces battery life span. To answer your question, the camera takes care of the stability, you don't have to do anything yourself. The answer to your third question is longer, but in short; you need to scan the map, get a gpx-file from your sport watch, the video in mp4 from the GoPro. The you use a program called QuickRoute to get the gpx on the map. I use Avidemux (as it's fast, but there are several alternatives) to combine the GoPro-videos to one (they come in several pieces). For combining the video and the map (with route) you use a program called OrientView. I additionally use a program CapCut to add some text afterwards. The whole process is described quite detailed in a video by a guy whom I can't remember, but I will try to find the video for you...
"we"? sounds like you are someone that may be able to help me...ide like to know the programs you use to compile the gopro clips, and also what you use to generate the map track. I have had several issues lately trying to make my first headcam video...thanks.
@@petter444petter I dont know about battery life, but it will take up more memory space. How much runtime do you get with your 8? Ukrainian guy uses a 5000mah battery pack for his....I have a 10 and got about 1 h35m I think once on a single battery...on a 2 hour event...😪🤬

Good video but unfortunately stutters at 30 fps. We always recommend 60 fps.
Yes, but isn't 60fps eating the battery faster?

personally I think the video looks pretty good...except for the raindrops on the lens, which can be lessened by using clear car wax...
Hi John, with the 8 I get maybe over an hour if I use 'poor settings', otherwise maybe 30-40 min...
