@@Gemini_Connect It’s true. My wife commented on how easy it was to watch and understand the content. I’m older and just have shot video on a Sony HDR when the kids were little. Editing was nonexistent or poorly done with flipping screen transitions and that kind of stuff. I am trying to figure out the best way to film our son’s college football and lacrosse games. I just got the Hero 9, so it is very new (the old Sony records in 1080p at 60i but in MTS format - which is a pain). Please consider doing a video on best settings, filters, and simple edits for folks filming their kids football or soccer games. I think you’d get a lot of interest from both old and young parents that want to share those moments with other family and friends. In any event, I will keep watching. Thx.
Being an absolute novice and just bought the GoPro Hero 9 for future vlogging, this video is absolutely amazing ……. One question do you use the light filters on all modes ? And underwater settings please as in stuck in a shark tank …….. Thank you so much…….😘
This is very helpful, thanks for this. I wish i had watched this sooner. I’m a new Gopro user and I have screwed up my footages by using Hypersmooth in low light which resulted in jittery videos. Do you have any tips on how I can save them? 😭
I have GoPro 10 black. I shoot 1080p coz my Pc doesn't support 2k editing. when I upload to youtube the picture quality drops too much. I have seen many videos and tried exporting from editing software using the 4k setting. still no use. how you do it. Please tell.
I always learn something when watching one your videos. We have somewhat similar work flows so its easy for me to incorporate many of your setting's in to what your doing. I use the Hero 9 to make not only travel videos, but also to shoot B-Roll for drone channel. Great video, and thanks for sharing.
Is there a way to have the camera make up for the lighting? My Google pixel records so much brighter and in focus. How can I get my Go Pro to mirror this?
Two question, i use my GoPro H9 at my work, and i work in tunnel construction, do you have any tip on settings, all my videos is dark, and its almost impossible to bump it up in post production, (i am pretty much an amateur), and how to get rid of the blinking from led lights? The lights we have are modern led-lights and you get som kind of blinking from them, i guess it has something to do with framrate and the led-lights HZ number? Lasse
Two things affect darkness: ISO and shutterspeed. Try setting ISO Min to 100 and ISO Max to 3200, or even 6400. If that doesn't work, also set the shutterspeed to 1/120, and the resolution to 4K60fps. This will give you the best odds of shooting in low light, BUT if you tinkered with shutterspeed, your footage will be shaky, so I recommend using a gimbal (the Moza Mini P is my favorite for the Hero 9). The blinking LED lights are due to the light bulbs in your workspace. The only way to avoid this is to use a bigger camera like a Sony A7sIII.
Great video! Shooting Cinematic and setting your camera speed let's say 60fps. How do you know which ND filter to use or is this a case of trial and error?
This was excellent. I especially enjoyd watching after I made these mistakes and acquired some of these accessories like the ND filters. Really commits everything to memory during the learning process
Have question can i use this seting for go pro 10 ? I see you use most on 4 k, can we use the same setting on all of them with 1080 p ? I am still learning and Thank you fkr thks video.
I love your videos, thank you... any videos on GOPROS that lock up or Freeze the display screen?... I have a GOPRO 9 and I have encountered this problem
Good morning, I am thinking of buying the GP Hero9, in one of your previous videos (October 2020) you did not recommend buying it .. to this day (May 2021) with the updates made, do you recommend or not to buy the hero 9 Thank you, your opinion would be very helpful.
Hello what will I do for my gopro8 for setting..I have a long video for example 20 minutes video but if I transfer the video to my phone was divided by 4...not entire video..what will I do madam?how to transfer my entire video to phone from goprohero8?
Question about the Sermonic Blink 500 Pro: What are your settings for the mikes/transmitters? I’d like to end up with ONE audio track IF that’s possible (and as easily as possible). I’m more into the videos showing our hikes, etc., however, I’d like to add audio from my BFF that’s actually audible. So, my Saramonic set just arrived. What are your recommended transmitter settings (other than turning off the mute button).
Turn off mute, and make sure sound is set to Mono (instead of Stereo) if you want single track audio. Test out the mics on your subjects and with your camera to make sure the audio levels are where you want them. May need to dial up or down the gain. But other than that, those are the only settings we tweaked.
Thanks again - you are my go to for my new and first Go Pro. However I could not find any mic settings in preferences. Does not seem to matter as the unpowered mic works, but I was wondering...
So I get there idea of travel but when you use the cinematic setting? Is mostly for the broll? Or do you integrate the cinematic with the travel? And how do you merge these 2 to gel? Thank you
Good question. We'll dive more into this topic in a future video. But yes, we save cinematic shooting for b-roll. It fuses pretty well with the rest of the vlogging footage.
Hi. When you use a wind muff / small dead cat on the lavalier microphone with your Rode Wireless Go, do you keep the small foam cover on the lavalier microphone on with the dead cat over that as well (or do you just have the dead cat on it's own over the microphone head without the foam ?
hi ive got a gopro hero 9 and when i set it to 4k it only gives me options to shoot in 24, 25 or 50 fps... not 30. Which should I select and how did you manage to get 30? thanks
Hi guys. I have found your videos to be extremely informative and easy to understand. I go back to them when I need to remember something I forgot that I had learned from you. Thank you❤️
Very nice video. Liked and subscribed. I just updated my settings so that I can vlog more and build my following on TH-cam. I will definitely look into the cases and accessories. i had my eyes on the ND filters, so i will look into those as well. Keep up the great content.
your videos really convinced me to get gopro 9. I did some shooting in the city but the results were not very good. Especially the sky on a sunny day made the sky glow and the buildings that were white also glowed. another TH-camr suggested turning down the exposure while others suggested getting an ND filter. Some suggested that ND filter will not correct the brightness captured by the gopro on a sunny day and will only slow the shutter speed. Could you please explain this? Thank you I appreciate any advice.
Both turning down the exposure and using an ND filter will help with shooting in sunny weather. ND filter explanation - th-cam.com/video/44lYINWF0Mg/w-d-xo.html
my footage on GoPro Hero 9 is always blurry and had some blocky images, after editing in video editing software and then uploading to youtube. how can i resolve it ? thanks btw i use 1080 60fps
Yes, for the most part. There are some things like Hindsight and Horizon Leveling that are not on the Hero 8, but you can replicate most of the settings.
Thank you for this.... I just got a Hero 9 Black and out of the box the videos and photos captured sucked! They are so blurry and the video is choppy. I purchased a book, which I thought would help, and I changed the presents, but it is still blurry. The firmware is up-to-date, therefore, no miracle fix is waiting for me on that end..... I will try your settings. If it doesn't help I'm over it! :0)
@@Gemini_Connect I live in Southern California… plenty of sun. I have tried to shoot in both types of lighting indoors and outside. I tried your activity setting today indoors, it improved the blur, but still not as sharp. According to the Quik app, and several videos I have seen, the previews on the camera and app are low resolution, therefore it is hard to tell if the reduction is on point. I will keep adjusting the settings and hopefully I will get a better result. Thank you, thank you! 💚💚💚
This is very helpful. I have the Hero 8. When I set up your standard preset I’m getting a 4:3 image. Do you edit that to fit better on TH-cam? Is the Cinematic the correct 16:9 format for TH-cam?
I just got the gopro9 with the 64gb pack and i upgraded to the 256gb compatible SD.. i shoot on highbitrate and i noticed it doesnt save the video if it's 15mins or longer. i get the buggy stuttery bug. how are you shooting on highbitrate everytime?
@@haynerbass gotcha. I would do cinematic settings if you have ND filters to balance out the light, or just put everything on auto if you don't want to fiddle with settings too much. Make sure you have enough light in your space, otherwise GoPro is not the best canera to use (it sucks in low light). GoPro on camera mic should do decently, but if you want to level up your sound, consider adding a shotgun mic or recording audio separately on a recorder and syncing in post.
Hey, You are quickly becoming my goto source for video tech. I just started shooting on my GoPro Hero 8 in 4K 30 FPS. I edit my videos on iMovie to upload to TH-cam. My first complete video (about 7 minutes in length and 2.6GB in size) is taking very long to process. It uploaded in about 10 minutes and then quickly processed the SD. But HD Processing is still running after an hour. Is this normal or have I done something wrong or have something set incorrectly in my process? As always, thanks for your help.
@@Gemini_Connect Wow. It's been processing HD for about 20 hours. In your experience how long have you waited for a 4K video to process? Is there any way to speed it up?
Great. Can you talk about 5K? I've just got a hero9 and am dissapointed my ipad pro 12.9 won't accept it. But lumafusion allows u to edit 5k buy not export it. What's the point of 5K????
5K is kinda like 8K (which a lot of mirrorless cameras are now coming with) -- cool in theory, but very few of us have the right equipment to properly edit the footage. Similarly, a lot of editing programs like Lumafusion aren't able to do much with it. And more importantly, a lot of viewers can't even see 5K. So arguably it's not very useful right now.
5k is mostly of use if you want to do some zooms and pans in post editing. You can crop and still get 4k and then pan around a little. Vic Barry has a good video on this.
@@Gemini_Connect thanks. So let me get this straight. All those hero 9 action clips under water, surfing, bike shots, all in crystal clarity are actually 4K? Sorry I meant a complete novice and value your advice.
@@Gemini_Connect ok, I've just been to a really good clip I saw that said '5k' but the info said he edited and uploaded it in 4K because most of us don't have 5k screens? It is a bit confusing!
It is pretty high, but in low light situations you don't have much of a choice but to increase ISO. 1600 is still better than 3200 or 6400, but it depends on your shooting conditions and ideal image quality.
Thank you for this video! Exactly what I wanted when I searched for "Best GoPro Hero9 Settings for VLogging.) Clearly, I needed this before my last video... HAHAHA!!! Get it? Because my video was not so, clear? HAHAHA!!! I'm viewer number 42,136!!! And... Subscribed!
2:34 from the other videos about Gopro Settings i have Seen so far, i would really recomend Setting the white Balance to 4500k. (NEVER left it on auto)
Have you ever had that annoying popping sound on your audio? My Hero 9 just started doing it and looked to see who else had this problem. If you did, what did you do to get rid of it?
@@Gemini_Connect I did see a comment on another page where they said they use the media mod and have had no problems. It must be something with the internal mics, looks like I’m making a trip to Best Buy🤣 Thanks guys👍 (guys hahaha)
You don't show what buttons to press to be able to set these settings how many clicks or seconds and what buttons top or side button on my Gopro 9 and can only find a few of these settings you are taking about
@@Gemini_Connect So what screen do I touch to turn it off or on my fingers are 73 years old and takes ages to get the screen to move a lot of those settings you showed and talked about can't find them on my gopro 9 in fact I haven't had it going as of yet watch dozens of videos on TH-cam but they all say do this don't actually say well to turn the gopro on press here I still don't know what the top button and side button do exactly as no one has ever said right let's start from here now this button on top Is for? I this side button is for you press or hold for x amount of seconds no instructions manual comes with the Gopro 9 like other cameras it's OK if you are are young or know someone with a gopro to guide you through the process but taking it from the box and not being tech savvy it's a nightmare No TH-cam video takes you through the complete process from start to finish showing how every button works I know it's a touch screen but how do you get to the different levels of each setting, every TH-cam video everyone thinks that they are all tech savvy and its a dream to work but I'm like thousands of other elderly people who thinks a complete working manual book comes with the gopro when even the safety manual is so small in print I can't even read it with my glasses on, I've had my gopro 9 for just over 4 months and still can't work it I try every day I so much trouble with the touch screen and my old soft fingers can't even get that too work most of the time I've tried touch screen soft tipped pens I use on my mobile phone and Samsung S7 plus tablet 12.4 screen tablet that came with a working manual so was easy, but the gopro really isn't designed for old aged fingers and no manual to work from, I've watched your video 3 times stopping to see if I can find what you have just found but can't find anything someone should make a gopro video from out of the box and explain every button and how many clicks how to get from one subject to the next very slowly Call this TH-cam video Working the gopro for the elderly or those that aren't tech savvy I'm 73 at the age of 13 I received my flying wings could fly a single engine plane day or night but couldn't drive a motor vehicle until I was 15 so even today I still hold my pilots licence the last time I took one up was in 2012 like riding a bicycle you never forget but the gopro has me stumped

Very nice explanation. Hats off. As I edit in mobile phone so want the resolution 1080. Then what would be fps ? 24 or 25 or 100 or 200 (Hero 9) ?
Go with 24 or 25 fps for normal video, or 100+ fps for slow motion.

Would you recommend editing software(s) for the gopro 10 other than gopro quik?

@@Gemini_Connect ok, I've just been to a really good clip I saw that said '5k' but the info said he edited and uploaded it in 4K because most of us don't have 5k screens? It is a bit confusing!
I'm using mobile only when I'm editing my vedio using go pro the resolution allowed is 1080only
Road Wireless go 2 mic can connet to media mode ?
Yes, it can.
Good explanation 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Wow your knowledge is impressive ...im hitting like comment & subscribe
hi can i ask whats is the meaning of FPS in camera ?
Frames per second (aka frame rate).
I wish you would show us how to change the settings.
isnt iso max 1600 too high? most of the people say 200 or 400
It is pretty high, but in low light situations you don't have much of a choice but to increase ISO. 1600 is still better than 3200 or 6400, but it depends on your shooting conditions and ideal image quality.
Thank you for this video! Exactly what I wanted when I searched for "Best GoPro Hero9 Settings for VLogging.) Clearly, I needed this before my last video... HAHAHA!!! Get it? Because my video was not so, clear? HAHAHA!!! I'm viewer number 42,136!!! And... Subscribed!
🤣
Very good sooooo informative
Thank you. Outstanding information for everyone especially a newbie. Semper Fi
Can I record without an external mic? Is the internal mic good enough?
Yes, it’s pretty good for most purposes
This was very helpful.. Thank you!!
Thank you for this information...It helps me...
Yes, high sharpness is absolutely terrible! The videos look so digital and pixelly. Love the GoPro Color! Again, love your voice too!
Totally agree 👍 Thank you for watching!
2:34 from the other videos about Gopro Settings i have Seen so far, i would really recomend Setting the white Balance to 4500k. (NEVER left it on auto)
Awesome vid, thanks heaps
Thank you so much for the tips...💯✔
How to shoot at night and our lights in the settings sis? Please help me.
I don’t recommend shooting at night with it, but if you do, you’ll need a gimbal for stability.
keep up the good work with your TH-cam videos :-)
Which video editing softwaare do you ise for gopro
Final Cut Pro and DaVinci Resolve.
@@Gemini_Connect thank you so much.
Have you ever had that annoying popping sound on your audio? My Hero 9 just started doing it and looked to see who else had this problem. If you did, what did you do to get rid of it?
We use the Hero 9 regularly and have never had audio problems.
From what we've heard from others who have this sound problem, one way to avoid the problem is to use an external microphone.
@@Gemini_Connect
I did see a comment on another page where they said they use the media mod and have had no problems. It must be something with the internal mics, looks like I’m making a trip to Best Buy🤣
Thanks guys👍 (guys hahaha)
Yes, it is a problem with internal mics only. Pretty sad because that didn't happen with old GoPros.
@@Gemini_Connect yeah, never happened with my GoPro 5
Great work, many thanks from Martin, Down Under...

Out of the park AGAIN. Thank you.
Good video Suzy ! and in 4K ..wow
Thank you Jose 😊
You don't show what buttons to press to be able to set these settings how many clicks or seconds and what buttons top or side button on my Gopro 9 and can only find a few of these settings you are taking about
It's all touchscreen. No buttons.
@@Gemini_Connect
So what screen do I touch to turn it off or on my fingers are 73 years old and takes ages to get the screen to move a lot of those settings you showed and talked about can't find them on my gopro 9 in fact I haven't had it going as of yet watch dozens of videos on TH-cam but they all say do this don't actually say well to turn the gopro on press here I still don't know what the top button and side button do exactly as no one has ever said right let's start from here now this button on top Is for? I this side button is for you press or hold for x amount of seconds no instructions manual comes with the Gopro 9 like other cameras it's OK if you are are young or know someone with a gopro to guide you through the process but taking it from the box and not being tech savvy it's a nightmare
No TH-cam video takes you through the complete process from start to finish showing how every button works I know it's a touch screen but how do you get to the different levels of each setting, every TH-cam video everyone thinks that they are all tech savvy and its a dream to work but I'm like thousands of other elderly people who thinks a complete working manual book comes with the gopro when even the safety manual is so small in print I can't even read it with my glasses on,
I've had my gopro 9 for just over 4 months and still can't work it I try every day I so much trouble with the touch screen and my old soft fingers can't even get that too work most of the time I've tried touch screen soft tipped pens I use on my mobile phone and Samsung S7 plus tablet 12.4 screen tablet that came with a working manual so was easy, but the gopro really isn't designed for old aged fingers and no manual to work from, I've watched your video 3 times stopping to see if I can find what you have just found but can't find anything someone should make a gopro video from out of the box and explain every button and how many clicks how to get from one subject to the next very slowly
Call this TH-cam video
Working the gopro for the elderly or those that aren't tech savvy I'm 73 at the age of 13 I received my flying wings could fly a single engine plane day or night but couldn't drive a motor vehicle until I was 15 so even today I still hold my pilots licence the last time I took one up was in 2012 like riding a bicycle you never forget but the gopro has me stumped
Every time like more your channel and videos. Thanks for your work
Thank you Alberto 🙏
Thank you so much for sharing!!!
You're welcome 😊
Thank you so much! Pro like always
Thank you for watching 🙏
What video editing software are you using on your Mac?
Final Cut Pro--that's what is in the video screenshots. We also sometimes use DaVinci Resolve too.
@@Gemini_Connect Thanks I will try that I got the gopro quick app and it is great for quick edits but this offers a lot more flexibility.
