Great video as always, I just bought a Hero8 to amuse myself during quarantine so this is incredibly timely! One tip I’d throw out there is that GoPro offers 50% off a lot of their branded accessories with a GoPro Plus subscription, which you get a free 30 day trial of if you haven’t used it before. I bought the magnetic swivel clip, roll cage, and Max grip all for 50% off their normal price with free shipping, and I’ll just cancel GoPro plus before I get charged at the end of the month. Great way for people new to the GoPro ecosystem to make the usually overpriced branded stuff much more affordable!
The suction mount and "Shorty" tripod are my favorite accessories for *any* GoPro regardless of what it is. I'm on the road a lot and having that ability to mount my camera to the dashboard or windshield is perfect. Combine that with the Shorty's small size and you got yourself the perfect day trip kit.
Great video! Thanks. How's the GoPro fit on the Chesty with the additional protective cage? I just wonder if the cage's thickness could affect the angle of the shots.
When you have it plugged in with a battery in it does it charge the battery while you're filming? Or does the GoPro take power from the battery first then when that's dead it goes to the auxiliary power?
Great video - I would be interested to see some third party options that are worth it, especially with the protective housing. I’ve got a Hero 8 and feel like that extra peace of mind would be helpful but for £50 I’m not sold!
I'm still using my Hero Black models 5 & 6 and the GoPro Hand Held Folding stick with a small Tripod that screws out of the inside of the handle transfers every vibration of my hand movement when switching views, changing hands etc. causing an editing headache. It is so bad that folk have made videos trying to rectify the problem whilst GoPro conveniently ignored the question. Therefore I trust that with their latest model and these new hand held grips that the situation of hand movement vibrations have been resolved. Thank you for the Upload, some very useful information contained therein.
Great videos, I’m new to the GoPro world, I will be using my new GoPro Hero 10 for snowmobiling. Nice to see what products you recommend for the GoPro. Thanks for the videos.
They need an attachment point for a lanyard on the Roll Cage and Protective Housing. I make stand up jet ski videos and wear the Chesty and have the H8 in the silicone sleeve and put the lanyard around my neck while out shredding. I've broke the buckle mount and the GoPro was saved by the lanyard around my neck. I mean really, you'd think those brilliant minds at GP and third parties would incorporate an attachment point into there products!
I've got the waterproof case for my motorcycle. Water drops flying at the camera at 70mph could be an issue. I've heard of people that don't use them but I'd rather not take the risk
Do you think that putting tempered glass on the lens and touch screen will be as good as the Rollcage? I want it to be protected but i feel like i would always forget the rollcage...
Don't buy the gopro case buy cheap foam filled one and cut to your liking. Have bigger one fit my gopros, a telescoping pole, 3 batteries, dual charger, mounts and extra SD cards. Be creative can get it way you want. Some get the tiny case just for the gopro and stuff everything else like accessories in a bag. Great video!
Can you plug in a USB charger while using the roll cage? For example if you use the cage when mounting the cam on a motorcycle to protect it from pebbles and other debris.
Yes the handler is one of those must-have accessories in my opinion. It works great just has a handle for every day use and it has a lanyard for those risky situations. Plus in and around water Prevents your go Pro from sinking to the bottom
I wanna know if gopro hero 4 accessories are combatable with gopro hero 8. I have found online a bag that comes with many accessories such as sticks and wrist straps, it's labeled for gopro hero 4/3/2/1 so I would like to know if it will work with a gopro hero 8. Thanks
Nice video man, I have both gopro 8 and max, and I want to know if you could charge the battery from the gopro max using the external dual battery of the 8 or viceversa? Since I think the plug is the same just change the size of the battery
Love GoPro 😊 I have a session 5 and it’s in a 3D printed mount on my race drone , it has dents from crashes all over it 😂 Nice accessories and break down of how too 😊
I just got the 3way for my hero 8 and I can't figure out how to simply just mount the 8 to the grip 😐 I love the grip and I see it shows you can do it. Am I missing something?
Is it possible to attach any ND filter to the waterproof cage? I have a waterproof cage for my Hero 8 and I looking for ND filters for a cage, I want to protect my action camera and on the same time to use ND filter.
It is one of my favorite go pro accessories it’s probably one of my most used ones as well very versatile and not just for the go Pro Max but I use it with my regular GoPro’s all the time as well
where can i find geniunie gopro j bukcle mount and extension arms thats straight and not vertical. i bought a kit from amazon and almost lost my gopro. the thing fell apart just sitting there smh.
You know, regarding the "getting out and using the GoPro more" part - I do hope you're right, and that we'll be able to use them at least this upcoming summer, if not this spring.
great vudeo.. nice to watch.. how do you do it so eloquently..!?... could u perhaps make a video tutorial on nd filters pls?.. (i own gopro 7black..) also..btw.. who buys silver/white versions... do they still maje them for 8?..i know they r cheaper but if i cant change the battery...it is useless imo. thanx!
They did not make them available for the 8. I think for the most part to try and entice people to purchase a cheaper version. I am glad they did away with them I think in the long run it was more confusing to new costumers who were purchasing their first GoPro
The 270 pole is something that interests me but I’d say that carbon fiber and sea water do not go very well together. Sea water corrodes carbon fiber over time and it would be best if it is used in sweet water instead. Also are there any interesting backpacks aside from the seeker that you could show us? From what I have seen there are not too many options out there.
Air Photography yes please! I’d be interested to see what you are using. I just hope that it is reasonably priced as well, because photo bags nowadays are insanely expensive.
Yes you have to be careful with some generic and third-party suction cups they don’t work very well. It’s good to stick with a good brand such as the official gopro suction cup
@@AirPhotography this is when I got my first GoPro but I new suction cups from 3rd party company’s could be bad so I asked for a good suction cup but I did not get that.
You can purchase it at 270pro.com They have two different versions of it the one that I use is called the backpack it’s just a little bit shorter when folded up. And you can get them in either black or white. Unfortunately they’re not available on Amazon yet
I think it just depends on where you can get the best deal. A lot of people like Amazon just because they have easy no hassle returns if they decide to return it
You can charge MAX batteries in the HERO8 Dual Charger, but you can't charge HERO8 batteries in the MAX Dual Charger. If you have the HERO8/7/6/5 Dual Charger, you don't need the MAX Dual Charger (unless you want to carry MAX batteries around in the charger, as they won't be as secure).
That’s a lot of accessories. I have only a handstick, and a chin mount for my helmet. And thank you for this video.

Yes great tip, does make the gear more affordable
Yes! I bought an extra go pro battery for $13.99 plus tax and planing to buy some other accessory before my membership ends :D
The Sunny Side of Coffee may I ask how much a memervship is?
@@Percpopper69 $5 a month or $50 a year :) and you get cloud storage, go pro replacement for a fee and discounted accessories
The Sunny Side of Coffee and can I buy something if I have this free membership
who else watches these for fun even though they dont have a gopro 8
Me
I don’t even have a GoPro haha
me 😑😑😑
Me😂
Not me but I just watch them so ik what I’ll g et in the future

nice break down of the accessories for the Gopro, thank you
Thank you
They should make the dual charger an additional power bank so you don’t have to plug it in the wall to charge the batteries
True so true
I know they have extra battery packs + chargers. I go the two set and I have three batteries total after the amount it only takes to charge 1 :))
Just use the USB battery pack you already have.
I would highly recommend the hero 8 for mounting on a motorbike for track days, especially with a gimbal for the classic motogp look
Great video! Thanks. How's the GoPro fit on the Chesty with the additional protective cage? I just wonder if the cage's thickness could affect the angle of the shots.
I use mine all the time with it plugged in. I usually take the battery completely out when it plugged in. Doesn't heat up that way.
When you have it plugged in with a battery in it does it charge the battery while you're filming? Or does the GoPro take power from the battery first then when that's dead it goes to the auxiliary power?
Great video - I would be interested to see some third party options that are worth it, especially with the protective housing. I’ve got a Hero 8 and feel like that extra peace of mind would be helpful but for £50 I’m not sold!
check david manning videos for the cheap accessories.. he has lots of good gopro stuff as well...
Juro Chovan will do thanks for the advice
Insurance is for the piece of mind. A case is nearly a necessity for most users.

Just a suggestion, I’ve picked up the mouthpiece mount and it’s a game changer.
I've got the waterproof case for my motorcycle. Water drops flying at the camera at 70mph could be an issue. I've heard of people that don't use them but I'd rather not take the risk
Wtf
Thank you for producing such informative videos. I'm a fairly new Hero 8 owner and I find your videos helpful.
I didn't know there was a replacement door that gave access to the USB-C port! Helpful video
Do you think that putting tempered glass on the lens and touch screen will be as good as the Rollcage? I want it to be protected but i feel like i would always forget the rollcage...
I think the roll cage would offer more protection but sometimes it is impractical
Thanks for posting. As a new Hero 8 owner I found it helpful.
Thanks I am glad you found it helpfull
Would you recommend buying the Media Mod for using an external mic, or is the mic of the GoPro good enough?
It depends, if you want to do active things then don’t get it if your gonna be talking to the camera vlogging then I recommend the media mod
I have so much accessories for my hero 8 but thanks for the help for teaching me some

I got a GoPro hero 8 today this weekend I’m putting it on an rc car but now I’m probably not idk is it safe enough with no case?
Great video helped me out a lot. I just got my gopro hero 8 and recently bought the handler thanks!
Yes the handler is one of those must-have accessories in my opinion. It works great just has a handle for every day use and it has a lanyard for those risky situations. Plus in and around water Prevents your go Pro from sinking to the bottom

OD Green aka Olive Drab is what we would call that color in the Army. 🤙🏽
I love watching, i already have those stuff video.
Teringinnye nak ada set macam ni. 😍. Dapat yg biasa pun jadilah. Semoga 1 hari nanti aku dapat buat video guna gopro. 🤗
I’m surprised you didn’t mention tamper glass screen protectors... I bought them for front and back glass
Yes definitely a good idea to install them
My personal favorite (still on previous generations) is the Vlogging Case with 52mm lens adapter. Think there’s one for the Hero 8.
Love the videos. They are very interesting and entertaining, keep it up!
Nice video man, I have both gopro 8 and max, and I want to know if you could charge the battery from the gopro max using the external dual battery of the 8 or viceversa? Since I think the plug is the same just change the size of the battery
You have to buy a gopro max dual battery charger to charge the gopro max battery...sorry😢😁👍
@@60-Second-Tech what a scam hahaha thank you for your answer
Do you think the genuine GoPro Dual Charger for Hero 8 is best vs. no-name alt brands?
U don't use the Ulanzi GP-4??,I saw u reviewed it and according to me it's wonderful,then just WHY?
Love GoPro 😊
I have a session 5 and it’s in a 3D printed mount on my race drone , it has dents from crashes all over it 😂
Nice accessories and break down of how too 😊
I must take these accessories to my gopro hero 8
Good morning, is there a protective housing that you can recommend if you are going scuba diving? Thanks.
The GoPro brand housings have always done well for me. Just make sure you get one for the version of GoPro you have. They all fit different.
I am saving my money for a GoPro hero 9 can’t wait to have it 😁
The GoPro has turned me into a gear Geek!
So the roll cage doesn't have cut outs for mics? Bummer. Will have to buy some type of panzer glass thing to shield the lens then.
I just got the 3way for my hero 8 and I can't figure out how to simply just mount the 8 to the grip 😐 I love the grip and I see it shows you can do it. Am I missing something?
It should just mount to the end with the finger mounts?
I have the Hero 4 and the Hero 7 and am waiting for the Hero 10
Is it possible to attach any ND filter to the waterproof cage? I have a waterproof cage for my Hero 8 and I looking for ND filters for a cage, I want to protect my action camera and on the same time to use ND filter.
Great reviews and great list of accessories!
how do you take video from your point of view (above)? do you use tripod?
Hi, the lens part of the protective housing, impact proof? lets say it hit by a small rock or shot by a plastic bb?
5:58
great video, thanks!
Im new to GoPro and i love that extension pole but is it really 2000$??? or am i missing something?
Lol, I had to look into it....that's in Taiwan currency, roughly $67 in US $$
How good is the GoPro max grip. Thinking about getting one after my three way mount snapped
It is one of my favorite go pro accessories it’s probably one of my most used ones as well very versatile and not just for the go Pro Max but I use it with my regular GoPro’s all the time as well
Air Photography looks a lot more sturdy than the three way mount 👍
Thanks very informative 👌🏿
I love my GoPro, and all the accessories...I just subscribed!
Thank you
Im getting a Hero 7 for my birthday, do i need a case or something to attach it to the mounts?
No the hero eight black has the mounts built-in to the bottom they flip out
Air Photography that said hero 7 🤦♂️
I’m getting all of these accessories soon
where can i find geniunie gopro j bukcle mount and extension arms thats straight and not vertical. i bought a kit from amazon and almost lost my gopro. the thing fell apart just sitting there smh.
You can buy official GoPro gear on Amazon or directly from their website. Yes I’ve had a few generic ones fall apart on me as well
What is the best accessory to attach the go pro 8 to a cage please⁉️
Do they work for the 9 as well?
Thank you very informative and to the point. :)
Thank you I’m glad you enjoyed it
Thank you so much. great information for me the newbie :)
You know, regarding the "getting out and using the GoPro more" part - I do hope you're right, and that we'll be able to use them at least this upcoming summer, if not this spring.
Probably not, unless you're filming alone
Hi air um my fav hero i accessorie is the silicone case
Hero 8*
where do you get the original go pro mounts that you fix onto something like the handler?
Very useful thanks
Thank you for this video
Excellent! Thank you, some very interesting products shown there😎

Yes they are
Why no chest strap review ?
Good video. I have on thats gonna be here soon and this is right on time.
Little late. I just bought the 8. It was cheaper then the 9.😂 Definitely need learn how to use it before next week camping trip. 😁
Anyone suggest a battery door with cord port that fits the gopro 8 black without jamming or popping off when in use?
Thanks for this useful review. I just got mine and can't wait to hands on.
Julia 🇰🇼
Thank you
Still waiting on info for this Display Mod. Any Idea when it supposedly coming?
Pre order by Aug. Coming to pre orders by fall, go to gopro site to register. It will be first come first serve on fall orders
My wife just brought me agopro 8 hero. Exicited
Nice 👍
Where did you get the charge door?
Can you/someone recommend a mic that allows me to reccord in heavy rain? (With good sound quality)
Anything to prevent my go pro from flying off my atv while flying through the woods?
My mom got be a case full or 3rd party accessories and it had a suction cup that does not stick

Nice 👍
Watching this on my go pro 8
thank you for this!!
good content. thank you
thats the first time im seeing a light and ive watched neraly 300 gopro acessories vids
great video keep up the good work.
Well, my Amazon bill just went up this month....
What about on person mounts ?
Just brought a GoPro 8 along with a bundle of accessories bill is around $300!! For my TH-cam channel
Nice 👍
Perfect review 👌👌👌👌
10:39 you can get a app on iOS not sure about android called myk and it uses your phone as a mic instead of a go pro mic
Interesting I’ll have to check that out
How has a gopro session 5
Can the GoPro max grip work with a hero 8??
Yes, indeed it does
I have got a GoPro 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8and the max
But do you have the 2 sessions?
Keep up the great videos!! ❤️
Very good video for go pro eksosori
Thanks for the share
I think I am asking 2nd time, can you please share 270 Pro backpack extension pole link or website to buy one ☝️ ?
Thanks
You can purchase it at 270pro.com They have two different versions of it the one that I use is called the backpack it’s just a little bit shorter when folded up. And you can get them in either black or white. Unfortunately they’re not available on Amazon yet
Air Photography
Thank you for your help and caring to share
I never thought they keep website name same as product name
@@yjchowdary I really enjoy it, i wish they were a little cheaper however
how is the video quality with rollcage lens on?
I have not really noticed any video degradation or extra sun flares. But the lens is easily removed if need be for specific shots
Are people buying gopros from Amazon or the official website??
I think it just depends on where you can get the best deal. A lot of people like Amazon just because they have easy no hassle returns if they decide to return it
You can charge MAX batteries in the HERO8 Dual Charger, but you can't charge HERO8 batteries in the MAX Dual Charger. If you have the HERO8/7/6/5 Dual Charger, you don't need the MAX Dual Charger (unless you want to carry MAX batteries around in the charger, as they won't be as secure).
