Fresh Under Chair 23 Yesterday

GoPro Hero 13 with Ultrawide Lens, I bought the bundle and it also came with the regular lens. It’s mounted on the forehead area of my helmet, right above the helmet front lip with the included curved mount. I believe the FWT athletes use this camera and lens combo as well, probably from the sponsor

For those who use a POV camera...

I use the Gopro hero 13, upgraded from the hero 8 black. I am very happy with the quality of the hero 13. What i was not happy though, was the postprocessing workflow on my laptop or phone. I have not tried the insta, but close friends told me they work really well and are easy to postpro. If you ha

Underwater Camera Suggestions?

Insta360 X5 is the popular pick for 360 degree video. I think people prefer it to the GoPro Max2 in low light GoPro Hero 13 for straight ahead video. Could also save some money with the Hero 12 but I hear the 13 is better and well under budget Costco has a nice Insta360 bundle for 550 and a Hero13 b

Do you use a camera when riding?

I use a helmet mounted GoPro Hero 11 Black. Probably overkill for a traffic camera but I use it for other activities as well; image and hardware quality is excellent and software is good as well. Cheap cameras keep getting better, however, to make out license plates it really helps to shoot in 4K. A

Which action cam with wide angle lens is the best?

They are all decent cameras that will give you great footage. That said, the Hero 13 still has the best image quality of the bunch when lighting is good and would be my choice for that reason. Many of the GoPro issues commonly upvoted are over-stated (battery life, overheating, no internal storage,

Best camera for a helmet?

(I'm not the person you asked, but...) One of the problems with helmet cams is that your head moves a LOT more than you might think! From wobbling and wiggling tiny amounts, to the abruptly yanking your head and looking over your shoulder, helmet cams seem to spend a considerable amount of their tim

4k Fence Mount Camera (non streaming)

I was using an old GoPro 6 and shooting 4k/30. I would record the whole game and note the time from start when a play occurred and then pull that clip and edit it at 720p. It worked and the videos looked decent. I just upgraded to a Hero 13 Black. My son is a catcher and I add a timer on each throw

For those who use a POV camera...

I personally prefer gopro. Having the hero 12 and quite happy about it. I like to mount on the helmet when snowboarding. It gives a nice perspective of the turns and the board and landscape doesn't look crazy stretched. There is the ultra wide mode or something like this, it is cool for when you are

Insta 360 X5 is it worth for my purpose?

I have the GoPro Hero 13 and the Insta360 X5 and I'd say you can get amazing footage with both. I was always sceptical of the 360 cameras as I don't like the distortion effect but with the app and careful editing, that's optional. Here is a short video of my.differentncameras I use on my Bikepacking

I’m a new YouTuber and am trying the running content niche. If there is anyone else here who does the same what camera do you use to good content and how can you keep the camera stable?

Everyone is all about the 360° cameras now but I still use a GoPro Hero 11 for recording my runs. Between the internal stabilization and horizon lock, it makes for very smooth footage.
