HowToUsePOVcameras is there anyway to turn off the beeping?
Good to know!👍
So there are only 2 types of sessions?
About the best instructional video I've ever seen on TH-cam. No wasted time, very informative. I just ordered your book from Amazon. You are an asset to all humanity.
Thank you for helping a 63 oldie you Younghans are definitely on target 🎯 you deserve five thumbs up as a rating
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you so much for the comment! I really appreciate it!!
Well, I must say, I don't make comments on TH-cam, But I have to compliment you on this video. I am in the process of buying a GoPro. and looking at this video, The picture quality and explanation was excellent. thanks, John from England
Thanks John! I appreciate the positive feedback!
Thank you for taking your time to make this video. I just purchased a gopro today and this helped me.
Great instructional review. I wish there were more professionals like you on youtube. This is very nicely edited and presented. Thank you!
I pulled out my Hero Session after two years and i like the picture every 1/2 to one second. The really shows up what you missed! This video is one of my favorites.
Everyone that does an instructional video on TH-cam should watch this video first. Never have I watched a video that was as clear and concise as this was. Thanks for posting. I mean really, what more would one need to know to use this camera.
THANK YOU SO MUCH! Comments like yours make me feel good!
Very good tutorial. It helped someone like me that knows NOTHING about cameras be able to easily operate the session! Thanks!
Larry
I just bought one from Target for 150 and I will be making videos with this and comparing it to other cameras that I use.
Excellent tutorial for me to get fimiliar with my new toy that hasn't arrived yet. I appreciate your NO FRILLS, NO OVER EXPLANATION, NO B.S. explication of each function and by starting from the box, simple function, mounts and mounting. WELL DONE.
Thank you very much for your video, way more usefull than the material provided with the actual camera
I know its been a million years, BUT, Im trying to set the date on the Sessions.... Where You have the screen that says 'Bluetooth pairing Request', My screen is asking for a Password.. That Ive NEVER set... so how would I know it if I never put one in??? The camera has a PIN but there's nowhere to put it in... (no it doesn't work as the password)
This was really helpful to me thanks for the advice
You are welcome.
LOL watching this tutorial SEVEN years later as I am so unfamiliar with old tech now lol. A friend never used her Session camera, and gave it to me (yup, never used for 7 years and yes it does work). I am into filmmaking so I use DSLRs but have played with GoPros as POV angles lol but Session is such a fun little camera, I was so happy to still find this video lol
Awesome! That's what I love about TH-cam. Seven years later, I can still help you out!
Great video- clear, concise and very thorough. I've inadvertently went to the Mountain without fully understanding how the buttons worked - I paid the price in frustration. Now after watching this video the little GoPro Session makes so much more sense to me.
*This was soo helpful, I've just got my GoPro HERO Session and can't wait to start using it. Super informative video, just what I needed, thank you! :)*
Is it a good camera?
I'm thinking of purchasing it but the git 2 and tomtom bandit looks good too?
Amazing tutorial man. I loved how you explained everything. Very useful. :)
Thanks! Glad the video helped out!
This is THE BEST instructional video I have ever watched! You were very descriptive and thorough! I will be purchasing your book from Amazon! Thanks again!
Best demonstration video I've seen on here for the session! Thanks buying it soon!
Why do some GoPros come with less accessories in the box. I just purchased a Hero4 session and it didn't come with a low profile frame or a ball joint buckle that I had seen online.
Thanks I got a my new session for Christmas and u help me set it up
As a 'technophobe' I've been reluctant to try out too much with this camera, but this video has changed that. The information is clear and informative, and in layman's terms. Thank you.
THANK YOU!!! I've had this go pro for the pass 5 years and never looked into how it could work till now. lol.
How do I turn the freaking thing off?
After 4 years everyone still doesn’t fricking know
Thanks for this video. I didn't know what the hell I was doing with my new GoPro Session
Once again, the absolute best tutorials I have ever found !!! just as you helped me decide to buy my very first GoPro (7 Blk ) I just received a Session (refurb) today. Zero paperwork. Thank you, Thank you. & Happy Holidays
Thanks so much!!!! Happy holidays to you too!
Thanks so much!!!! Happy holidays to you too!
I want to thank you for the video. There was a time when companies sent out little booklets that taught you how to use their product, I suppose Gopro has something on their web site.. but yours was perfect :) a "how to set up your go pro for dummies" and yes, I am a go pro dummy, a newbie to gopro. I have about 3 weeks to figure all this out before a zipline/white water rafting trip. Now that I have it set up, I'm going to start practicing shooting. Thanks again for the great help.
*NOTE* This is a Hero 4 Session, they no longer sell the Hero 4 Session. It is now called the Hero Session. The only difference is there are less mounts included. I hope I helped clear some confusion!
PDB123 Vlogs is it a good camera ???
THANK YOU! I JUST BOUGHT THE CAMERA N COULDNT FIGURE THIS OUT LOL I WAS SO CONFUSED
how long does it take for a full charge?
Killer video. Clear. Straight forward. Thanks.
Was exited to see all the awesome video. Got home had a bunch of stills of my hand! Wish I would've watched this video first.
I keep watching videos on the GoPro Session because I want to purchase one really badly, but I'm afraid it will be too confusing for me. Your video is the BEST video I've watched because it gives me confidence to try. Thank you! (My only concern now is that I'm afraid I will take videos of everyone's bellybuttons instead of their faces - lol - I guess the phone is used to get use to the position of the lens and it will be a matter of recognizing the angle of the camera to know exactly what you are centering - talking about hand-held videos)
thanks you really helped me with basic stuff thank you so much!
Very good video! I was getting so frustrated with the controls of this camera until I watched this video, and everything makes so much more sense now that I got it figured out. The GoPro Session manual doesn't give a good description of the order of operations you need, but you laid everything out perfectly, thanks for helping to clear things up for me!
Thank you so much for this video! We just got our first gopro ever, and it came with 0 instructions. I was completely lost! I set my camera up in no time with your help.. spot on video. Thank you again!
Thanks for the tips i just Got My own GoPro on Chrismas eve
yoo same man lol It's great isnt it
lol looks like we came to the right video then
I got mine today too lol
I got mine yesterday to!
Mine yesterday lol
Best video, well done, and thanks.
Just got my Hero4 Session. Your video was a GREAT help. Thanks
Thanks for posting this video. I've bought one two weeks ago and just bought another earlier today. Knowing what each piece is for helps in a dramatic way. Not sure why the mini-manuals provided didn't explain it much
This is so helpful and very detailed! Thanks so much!
Bought my session today. I only got 2 adhesive, the frame with the buckle, and usb for charging. Is that okay? I didn't look at the box when I grabbed it since it was empty and all the same price. They will only give you the product at the cashier so...
yeah they changed what's inside the box.... kind of sad
same i only got 1 frame. :( sad
funny story they stopped production of the session in may i think
hiiii
Javier Carnicer they make hero 5 session now
Dude...your instructions were spot on from opening package, wifi-smart phone sync, to mounting pieces. Serious thank you. Liked & subscribed!
+Badass 40s Thanks for the positive feedback, the like and the sub!
wow thx! I’m a visual and the little screen etc...are not friendly user for me... but you video is simple visual straight to the point without any to long talking front camera like many other video. Now I understand my session and the mounting adaptors. Thx a lot for that! I will look for your book! Thx!
I just got a hero 4 session but mine only came with the two adhesive mounts and no others. Is that right?
Yeah, the Session comes with one Flat Adhesive Mount and one Curved Adhesive Mount.
Awesome and super helpful video! Do you think it would be safe to mount the camera on the outside of my car and drive?
Yeah, if you don't mind sticking an adhesive mount on there, that is the most secure mount. Wait about 24 hours after you adhere it to let the adhesive set and you are good to go.
Or, the suction cup mount is solid too. Just check the suction after you put it on there.
HowToUsePOVcameras Thanks a lot!
Clean the area it's to be mounted. For the sake of your 'wallet', attach a tether to the camera and the outside mirror. The official GoPro suction cup is very good, but if it pops off you may not see it go and that would be a real downer!
Um my power thing is not working do I charge it?
Why in Gods green earth would you do that? With every car having 4 windows just protect your investments by keeping it inside the car... unbelievable! Lol!
Proberly the best training video ever. Thank you
Very helpful. I just got the Session today and I was a little bit frustrated with the lack of a screen on it. This video really helped. Thank you!
Did apple delete this app? Can't find it....
Jake Hiatt it's now Called capture
If you film using the app will the videos save to your camera roll
No, the videos and photos won't automatically save to your camera roll. The files are saved on the camera's microSD card.
After you film, you can go through your GoPro's media to select which photos or videos you want to save to your phone so that you don't use up all of your phone's memory.
HOW????
Vhs Vcr the capture app allows you to control the go pro( start/ Stop) and preview what the camera is seeing so you can set up a shot/ check the view.
The moment you hit record, you no longer get a preview from the gopro.
The gopro records to its onboard micro sd card ONLY. It does not record to your phone. The video file can be copied to your phone when not recording, to be edited.
By the way, I love the how to use book... I keep it handy as I learn.
Great video! Just got this Go Pro as my first camera and got everything I needed to from your video. Thank you!
thanks dude had my sesh for awhile but never been very bothered to get to know the settings now i do
I just got a session the video is fuzzy any ideas
brian dillon same here
brian dillon I'm pretty sure you have to upload it to your computer
Sophia Ridgeway Thank u
Did you ever figure it out?
Is it working at water or nah?
+Batt Dogan If you are asking if the Session is waterproof, yes it is. You do not need a case because the camera itself is waterproof.
HowToUsePOVcameras u are amazing
I just got mine today if I need help with a camera u r The right guy to watch I'm definitely going to recommend this to my friends you're so awesome at first I didn't know how to use it because it was just A weird little cube thank you so much!
Excellent instruction. Thanks for the floaty tip!

MR-FLIP yes
N2R - Yes

I’m starting to make TH-cam videos and my daughter’s GoPro was just laying around. I’m actually charging it now. I really appreciate this video. I need to get a micro sd card. I can’t find the bases. Maybe they sell these at Walmart. I’m gonna check out your other videos. I’ll need to figure out how to edit videos once I start making them. Thank you for this very helpful video.
This is super helpful!! I had no idea it was waterproof!!!!!
You go WAY to fast for a beginner. I cannot find a "GoPro App" I can find "Capture", is that what you are referring to? I got this camera and am still struggling with it. Took it to a party, all of the video was too dark. Tried to do a cooking video - All I got was the kitchen cabinets. I am not going to give up but to me this camera takes some getting used to.
They now have 2 apps for it. one is for editing and one for doing what the original gopro app did. The app you need is 'Capture'. Threw me a lill bit also.
I don't think he goes too fast at all. You can pause the video you know? I myself found myself rewinding several times too, but that's just what you have to do on TH-cam, unless you want to make a 30 or 40 minute video, which will certainly make people skip past it because they do not have the time. But I'm glad you brought up the point about the GoPro App, because I would have been looking all over for that too. I'm going to get it fired up tomorrow. Charged and got it all ready tonight and it's bed time. Thanks for the heads up.
Just buy the book from Amazon
Sammy Shine the app is Capture they changed it
the Protune is to record on night you can change the color to be better on night.
I did on my GoPro
Thanks! I want to use one of these for timelapse and wasn't sure if it could still work while plugged into a USB battery pack.
You answered my questions so I'm getting one now!
Kudos, Great video. I was getting frustrated with my session until I read this. One thing you need to note with this camera is patience is key. Also, people watching, pay strict attention to the app connection process. On android make sure you connect the wifi manually because if you rely on the app to do this, it will appear to never happen.
i had no idea what to do and this helped so much. thanks for making a video i can actually follow
You're very welcome. Thanks for watching!
I just want to thank you so much because I just got this camera n I was having a rly hard time setting it up. Thx for ur help!
Awesome and super helpful video. I've got my cam today (first gopro) and your video saved me lots of time of figuring things out! Off to the beach to give it a try!
Hello Sir I saw this video a year ago😌but Today I have Revisited your video for some help on Hero Session 4 and now I am so Happy because I was a bit confused about the setting which I have over seen for some reason I dunno but seeing your video helped me a lot after doing some correction in the setting which I have done during watching your video and now I have a much good looking videos all Thanks to you Sir, Loved the Video Cheers😇✌
Just got a Hero 4 Session as my first GoPro and I was really intimidated by all the mounts it came with. Wasn't really sure how to use them all, so thanks for the helpful video!
Excellent video, thank you. I just received my GoPro as a "mystery" gift! This should be fun!
Great tutorial on the pairing much easier than going by the instructions you made it so simple. Thanks for the video tutorial I have now bought two of these cameras for wheelchair security when I go out and have come in very handy. I also have a silver but prefer to use these much simpler to record. Also the audio is way better than the silver Regards Mark Sydney Australia
hey man thanks for posting this vid. going to antarctica and don't know anything about go pro, was a huge help!
good luck on your trip then, ps. watchout for the polar bears ;P
Thank you for posting this video. I ended up with two of these cameras and I wasn't exactly sure of the need for a camera like this because of the capabilities of a smart phone. The mounting options you hint at in this video are opening my eyes to the potential of this neat camera. Again, thanks! (And Im buying the kindle edition of your book)
thanks man my session is charging now but so far so helpful and I'm so happy for my first gopro
Way better than the official GoPro videos. Wish I had watched this first!
this vido was so useful I just bought a go pro and am going away on Sunday and had no clue how to set it up and that you had to purchase a memory card separately and wanted to use it on holiday with my friends and family and just about manage to order it so it came befor we go this is a very useful vido
Thank you! This video was incredibly helpful.
Good tutorial! I used this vid to set up my Session. I'm mounting it on my RC airplane now using the curved stick-on mount.
This was really useful for me as I just got a GoPro hero session today
Just bought the Session today and the low-profile mount is included.
Your video was the best by far in learning the basics on my GoPro! Thank you!
Right on! You are very welcome!
Great video. Thank you! Special thank you for not using loud background music, which is commonplace nowadays. Great job!!
I just got my go pro, I figured it out pretty easy. How do you delete from the camera? I was playing with it, and got some video's I didn't want and some how many pictures. I plan to be using this why barrel racing on my horse. Thanks for the start up video. This helped me more than the book I got with it.
Amazing video liked it helped a lot had my go pro for about a year and havnt been able to get the sim in and now I've watched this it's helped so much thank u so much
Great video mate with simple explanations that covered everything i need to know after just buying one if these.
Thank u so so much, honestly the most helpful vid I've ever found on TH-cam ever and rlly helped me with my camera, thank you once again
Very complete guide. Thanks you.
OMG man thanks this video is very descriptive and you just earned a new sub. Merry Christmas!!!
wow great detail video your awsome! keep doing your thing!
Thanks for this vid. Really clear. Also made me realise that Argos had given me the wrong model. Now I have the correct one I can get started! x
Awesome video. Very helpful! Thank you!
Thanks Jordan for the video its very helpful
Nice video, thanks for the run through.
Thank you so much! I bought my Hero4 Session last weekend and use the remote. The quality of the footage is superb. I like your tutorial so much I have just ordered your book from Amazon so should have it here in Australia in a week or more. With your assistance i will get the hang of this fabulous camera very fast!
+Angel Lemurian Thanks for ordering the book Angel! You will be a Session master soon :)
Cool, thank you! You have the clearest imagery and the simplest, straightforward teaching method which I really appreciate.
Nice job on a quick, basic startup tutorial. Thanks!
Thank you! Btw. I bough camera last Wednesday and there were all the parts in the Session Kit including Low-Profile Frame.
Very helpful, I was able to set it up with your help, thanks for taking the time to do this.
Good job on explaining very helpful.
thanks man my session is charging now but so far so helpful and I'm so happy for my first gopro😁😁
EXCELLENT VIDEO! But I can't find that GoPro app anywhere (not even on gopro website) is it still available anywhere? GoPro support is horrible.
I love how you teach - It was easy and to the point. Good Stuff
