I just got my first GoPro the GP-11. One mistake I made was thinking the firmware update it conducts when powering "on". I could not get through my first poking around the setting before it would literally power itself off. It did this several times so I chatted with GP CS. They instructed me to do a manual firmware update and they emailed me the instructions on how to do this on my own. After the manual update I have not had any more issues. Just a heads up for those who may run into the same issue. Great video btw!
Great video as always! I think to me, your tip of shooting more videos/photos and experimenting with the GoPro as much as you can is so spot on. The more you use it the better the results. Keep up the GREAT work.
I disagree on the 1st point. I've found myself cursing my unwillingness to record more after missing something I would have wanted recorded. Editing a couple more minutes is not that hard, specially if you're willing to watch the video at 3x speed or more. I do absolutely agree on every single other pont, though
Regarding the 1st point, I started doing it that way, trying to time it and make a good clip, but I would often miss things or not press record at all. Now I just record gigantic videos, then I edit them. It's not hard finding the interesting moments exactly because they are few, so you will usually remember where to look for.
Thank you very much for this video. It was most helpful. I am a beginner and guilty, guilty guilty. I have made all of these mistakes. I have had my GoPro for less than a year and have only shot a few things thus far. With the help of your tutorial videos, this year will be different. You have informed and, encouraged me. Also, you have rekindled my resolve and desire to produce quality videos that will benefit and encourage others as you have benefitted and encouraged me. Thanks, this was a great find!
Great video and points! I’ve actually been using my GoPro for action shots and then my camera for scenic/close up shots (just like you mentioned), and the two pair well together.
Totally agree with using the chesty over a head mount. I capture a lot of fishing shots and you don’t realise just how much you move your head until you watch a playback
I just got my first go pro and this video will be helpful along with your settings video for the hero 11. I am going on a month long trip in a week and very excited to try out a lot of settings and actually have fun with it
get a pile of battery's the thing is a hog. I ran my 11 , my 7 black and my 7 silver a lot , the fastest one to go dead is the 11 (if it dont overheat first) running them off a USB cord fixes both of these problems
Good points , the last is probably the best get out and use it and use it a lot . I find a mono pod is good also for different angles and fake drone video and it keeps it level .
I am new user of GoPro and I am yet to use it the first time. Coincidently, youtube suggested this video to me. Not only the mistakes mentioned are so basic that almost everyone would at some point commit those mistakes. It is definitely a education to me 👍 You straightaway got to the point 👏👏. Your Intention seems so Genuine; Speech resounds Honesty & Humility. While the Description & Flow of the points reflect Experience. . Subscribed for more 🤝
Great video Sir, thank you very much. To me as a beginner, just by watching movies, it was clear from the start that the most important principal that is also kind of all encompassing is the SHOOT FOR THE EDIT advice.

Your tutorials have already improved my footage quality by a lot and I've used different settings for different situations. I'm so grateful for it! However I'm curious if you have an idea, how to tackle mistake #1 better. It feels like i record for a long period of time and nothing happens. As soon as I turn the camera off, so much interesting stuff goes on. What could be a solution for that?
They have a knew feature called hindsight which records all the time and when you start recording, it saves the 15 to 30 seconds prior to that moment, so you never get caught off guard
Ive spent the last week filming first person videos of my daily work tasks and just everything i do in the day. Its much easier to take 20-30 minute shots or longer, upload the .mp4 files to clipchamp (its free), sort them by date created, then string all the shots together. I speed my videos up x4 to rewatch them and can turn a normal work day into about a 22 minute vid. Just pop captions in where you want to explain something quickly or split the clip and slow down a section if you happen to be talking in the video. When you export do it in 720p they'll still look fine and you,ll have about 1-2GB video when youre done. As far as settings on camera go low with everything and dont bother with hypersmooth.
I am a victim of number five and the up and down step movements 🥲 how can I solve this? Would reducing my physical movement be enough? Or do you think I need a gimbal?
Good advice, but there wasn't a single mention of how to extend the battery life! My first time using my gopro was cut short by the battery dying. Would've been life-saving to know about how to extend the battery life back then!
Great video, Werner. I just bought a GoPro 3+ used, I'm using it on bike rides. Still trying to find the best angles, but your videos help. Thanks for all you do! Subbed.
The first 4 of your tips that are not GoPro specific, are perhaps the most important anyway. Thanks for drilling this into my head, perhaps a set of recommendations that I need to master first.
Very informative. It puzzles me that EVERYBODY talks about, the necessity of ND filters and the 180 shutter-rule. Can’t you get as good as a motion blur in post (like Davinci Studio)? One would be more flexible and wouldn’t have the hassle with the NDs all the time. Hardly anybody talks about the negatives/restrictions of using an ND filter like, color-casting, vignetting, having to use a higher ISO sometimes, not being able to use polarizers with a variable ND filter which is usually less of a quality anyway, bad stabilizing results, etc. If the motion blur is only done in post, without NDs, how good and easy is the result of a proper motion blur and quality?
I've never had a GoPro. Going to be using it for motorcycles. The only things that are important to me is excellent quality, excellent vibration dampener, horizon stabilizer and the GPS. Which one should I get?
Thanks, you motivated me to keep my iPhone for what I was about to use a GoPro for, I didn’t meant it in a bad way, but where I live those cameras are extremely expensive and as any apple, I don’t think it justifies the price, so I think I’ll extract what I can from my phone, thanks!
Thank you for offering this video. You made a statement that has totally changed my mind about buying a GoPro which I have been researching. I have been making instructional videos for RUclips. I am using my laptop but want to buy a portable camera so I have more flexibility in camera positioning and adding movement to my shots. Your remark that GoPro is not good for closeups and portraits has saved me from making a big mistake! Thank you. I have little experience and have no one to teach me how to use the equipment I own, so I am totally on my own in learning how to use any new equipment. Any suggestions for a good camera that will be simple for me to learn how to use would be greatly appreciated. By the way, I'm 80 years old and not technically savey. BTW, I'm guessing you were not using GoPro to shoot your on-camera speaking segments.
I use a Sony Handy cam for most filming mainly use the go pro for under water and boating shots .I started with Bolex 8mm back in the 19 60s .editing is the hardest part .I doubt that I'll ever get all my movies edited .
Hello. I just bought a go pro but thinking i made a mistake. It is for a disney trip to take photos and close ups. Not really for doing videos. Reason why i bought was for underwater feature. Ive been looking at common mistake videos but seem to be about video rather than photos. Do you have advice. Thanks
Im just beginner in GP. I bought gp11 previously. When i shoot short video and transfer to my phone the videos is buffering. Please advised thank you in advance.
Good stuff. I am still making some of these mistakes. The longer clips for instance, I forgot to hit the off button riding home from the airshow Saturday. I found one clip of me riding home, handlebar mounted so bleh.. not exciting at all. Thanks for this one and I will check out more of your tutorials
Great tips, thanks. However, not everyone owns or can afford to purchase a good spec laptop that is capable of running Davinci Resolve, etc. Thus, they have no alternative option but to use a tablet or smartphone for editing. Even though I've only recently purchased a GoPro, I'm not certain that I'd purchase another one. For those of us that have problems with our fingers, e.g. the on/off switch is difficult to press, and opening the battery compartment is a real struggle. GoPro designers don't seem to think about people with disabilities.
Great video. My first time but I’ve subscribed and will be following more. It’s very much like learning to shoot RAW using a DSLR. I’ll definitely be watching more and experimenting more with my new GoPro hero 11. Thank you.
Thanks for the basics, Werner! I'm buying a GoPro #9 in a few weeks to shoot from a kayak - whitewater footage plus flat water paddling, fishing and camping footage, meal preps, and gear reviews in the backcountry. I plan to mount the camera on a short tripod in the center of my kayak so that I can pivot it for vlogging. Can you suggest a self-contained microphone system for voice that can also pick up woodland sounds (birds and animals beyond a few feet.) Unfortunately, the GoPro plugin for an extra mic requires the waterproof battery door to stay open, completely negating the waterproof features. I'm hoping to find something running off a battery pack that does not connect to the camera. I've bought NCH VideoPad editing software and hope to start working with it soon. Any advice would be appreciated! I'll be taking still shots with my T3i Canon. Thanks in advance...Eric
Hi Eric, I have little experience with outdoor microphones. Sometimes I use a Rode lavalier microphone and use it on a recording device. Maybe a recording device like the Tascam DR 05 or the Zoom H1 would be suitable for you. They record autonomously, but you can also connect microphones.
I hope you have better luck with NCH VideoPad than I did. First video I edited and exported to my hard drive, it changed the format to something RUclips doesn't recognize. If you know what I did wrong, please post my error. Thanks.
the battery just doesnt last. i had a gopro hero silver the battery was draining per seconds. i want a camera i can record for bursts of 10-20 minutes no worry battery be dead or losing footage or camera didnt save.

Hello so I have an iPhone 12 with a GoPro 10 is there any way around the unable to download because my high resolution it’s only 2.7k with 60fps. And I don’t edit videos .
Hello, I just ordered an GoPro 12 but I have question… I would like to record sometimes on the motorcycle when I go in holidays the villages and so on but how I can have the best audio quality without putting an microphone connected to the camera with all those cables? 🙈thank you 🍻
I never owned a GoPro before. I’m going for a 1month trip to the Philippines in December and snowboarding in March 2023. I also need an action camera while I do my auto detailing videos. I’m leaning more towards between GoPro10 or 11?. What do you guys think?
So when do you stop upgrading to the next new release gopro? Is it OK to say to yourself this one is doing the job I will just stick with this one for now?
Biggest GoPro mistake for me (so far) buying the wrong size SD card. A quick Google search said a 32gb SD card could hold approx 3.5hrs video, so I bought one. Only to find out it will only hold 57mins of video.
So whats the best option to smooth the walking bounce going up and down? I've been searching for this particulary answer for a few days but got no clue so far...
thank you very much, how do i know that i got the right editing software that you showed can you send me a link of the movie maker? please and thank you
I wish I could move my files to my PC. I have a Go Pro 10 but if I connect it to the computer the MTS folder always says it is empty. Even if I can see them on my GoPro screen and the Quik app on my phone. Think I need to return it since editing on the phone is a joke.
I just subscribed. I got a GoPro 11 to film pressure washing work. I plan to use fast speed and would like to add logos. Will check out your other vids. Thanks
The biggest problem I had as a beginner was saving the video. The go pro subscription helps out a lot with that. But he's right, you need a computer. I need to upgrade.
My first & only mistake: buying Hero 12 & Max together & now I cant use both together. Gopro App can only support one camera at a time. Not worried about next 10 mistakes as I will be returning BOTH.I will be buying DJI & INSTA haha
I just got my first GoPro the GP-11. One mistake I made was thinking the firmware update it conducts when powering "on".

TY. My wife got me my first GoPro (The Hero 11). Great tips!
Good points , the last is probably the best get out and use it and use it a lot . I find a mono pod is good also for different angles and fake drone video and it keeps it level .
I agree. I try to tell all my riding friends not to use the top helmet mount 🤦♀️it’s painful to watch those videos
''There is no substitute for personal experience.'' Good advice. Shoot, shoot, shoot. You'll get better.
Good point on long video of the same scene is boring. Cutting to new scenes keeps the final product refreshing. 👍

Great video. My first time but I’ve subscribed and will be following more. It’s very much like learning to shoot RAW using a DSLR. I’ll definitely be watching more and experimenting more with my new GoPro hero 11. Thank you.
I am a really new with this like 1 day ago just started and so scared to use this GoPro but Thank you Werner for info! Helps a lot! Merry Chrismas 🎄☃️
Well expressed and shown. Show and tell one of the most affective ways to make a point. Thanks.
Thanks for the basics, Werner! I'm buying a GoPro #9 in a few weeks to shoot from a kayak - whitewater footage plus flat water paddling, fishing and camping footage, meal preps, and gear reviews in the backcountry. I plan to mount the camera on a short tripod in the center of my kayak so that I can pivot it for vlogging. Can you suggest a self-contained microphone system for voice that can also pick up woodland sounds (birds and animals beyond a few feet.) Unfortunately, the GoPro plugin for an extra mic requires the waterproof battery door to stay open, completely negating the waterproof features. I'm hoping to find something running off a battery pack that does not connect to the camera. I've bought NCH VideoPad editing software and hope to start working with it soon. Any advice would be appreciated! I'll be taking still shots with my T3i Canon. Thanks in advance...Eric
Hi Eric, I have little experience with outdoor microphones. Sometimes I use a Rode lavalier microphone and use it on a recording device. Maybe a recording device like the Tascam DR 05 or the Zoom H1 would be suitable for you. They record autonomously, but you can also connect microphones.
@@MountMediaChannel Thanks so much for the suggestions Werner! I'll definitely check them out! I appreciate you reaching out! Cordially, Eric 🛶
I hope you have better luck with NCH VideoPad than I did. First video I edited and exported to my hard drive, it changed the format to something RUclips doesn't recognize. If you know what I did wrong, please post my error. Thanks.
the battery just doesnt last. i had a gopro hero silver the battery was draining per seconds. i want a camera i can record for bursts of 10-20 minutes no worry battery be dead or losing footage or camera didnt save.

John 3:16-21
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
Mark 1.15
15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Hebrews 11:6
6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

Hello so I have an iPhone 12 with a GoPro 10 is there any way around the unable to download because my high resolution it’s only 2.7k with 60fps. And I don’t edit videos .
Hello, I just ordered an GoPro 12 but I have question… I would like to record sometimes on the motorcycle when I go in holidays the villages and so on but how I can have the best audio quality without putting an microphone connected to the camera with all those cables? 🙈thank you 🍻
Hi - there is no real solution to that - for really better audio you need an external mic
@@MountMediaChannel and which one do you recommend?
@@RideHarder I personally have the DJI Mic2 - but don't forget - you need the media mod to connect an external mic
@@MountMediaChannel thank you ☺️
@@MountMediaChannel but for this one that you use, I see that’s via Bluetooth, so you don’t need cables and the special case for GoPro correct?
Excellent tips! My first time to your channel. Very well produced. You put a lot of concise information into a well presented video. Thank you.
I never owned a GoPro before. I’m going for a 1month trip to the Philippines in December and snowboarding in March 2023. I also need an action camera while I do my auto detailing videos. I’m leaning more towards between GoPro10 or 11?. What do you guys think?
What user friendly beginner video editing software would you recommend for a new iPad Pro besides iMovie?
This is very useful! Thanks!
So when do you stop upgrading to the next new release gopro? Is it OK to say to yourself this one is doing the job I will just stick with this one for now?
Biggest GoPro mistake for me (so far) buying the wrong size SD card.
A quick Google search said a 32gb SD card could hold approx 3.5hrs video, so I bought one. Only to find out it will only hold 57mins of video.
Nice info and presentation
So whats the best option to smooth the walking bounce going up and down? I've been searching for this particulary answer for a few days but got no clue so far...
Great video, thanks for the information
Thank you. Great advices.
Good points! But thats true for any camera you buy.
you can edit with the gopro app?? everytime i try to do it it asks me to download the app
Fantastic video! Thanks!!
thank you very much, how do i know that i got the right editing software that you showed can you send me a link of the movie maker? please and thank you
tx for kind advices
Great tips that this beginner can use, thanks!
Nice Video for Go Pro addict👏🏻👍👍
I wish I could move my files to my PC. I have a Go Pro 10 but if I connect it to the computer the MTS folder always says it is empty. Even if I can see them on my GoPro screen and the Quik app on my phone. Think I need to return it since editing on the phone is a joke.
I just subscribed. I got a GoPro 11 to film pressure washing work. I plan to use fast speed and would like to add logos. Will check out your other vids. Thanks
Seems like a lot of work. That might be the biggest mistake for beginners. Not understanding the reality of how much time and work it requires.
The biggest problem I had as a beginner was saving the video. The go pro subscription helps out a lot with that.
But he's right, you need a computer.
I need to upgrade.
You gotta get good before you get fast.
Used to take me hours. Now I can do edits in a fraction of the time.
Nie można po prostu zrobić dobrej kamery która robi dobre filmy bez dodatkowej zabawy na programach komputerowych ...
Regards and thank you from México
My first & only mistake: buying Hero 12 & Max together & now I cant use both together. Gopro App can only support one camera at a time. Not worried about next 10 mistakes as I will be returning BOTH.I will be buying DJI & INSTA haha
The mounts are good for all the GoPros?
Because i saw some accesories for the 9,8 and 7 i think but i really want to buy the 10
Yes, they work for all GoPros
