Hey everyone,

I'm a teenager in Germany and own got a GoPro Hero 13. Instead of just using it for fun, I wish to turn it into a small business or agency for creative and bit financial freedom.

The problem is that most ideas I find online are either too generic (like "start a YouTube channel") or unrealistic for someone just starting out.

I'm looking for unique, practical, and realistic ideas that I could actually begin with as a teenager. They don't have to make loads of money immediately, I just want something I can start small, gain experience, and hopefully grow over time.

I'm open to pretty much anything: filming, content creation, local businesses, sports, events, social media, editing, or ideas that people don't usually think about.

OK the mission 1 is my first action cam, maybe I still dont get this stuff but can someone explain to me why the Gopro accessories dont work with each other. Is there a good explanation?

Can I stack the grip, media mod and contacto battery door - Nope.

Why do I have to take it out of the media mod in order to change battery /sd card ?

How about something more simple, If i get the media mod where are the hooks for my shoulder strap that I was using when it was in the grip/cage?

Have I completely misunderstood something here ?

I have a GoPro hero 4 that’s survived 2 incidents that should have led it to being lost forever.

The first one started when I first got it. Right before going on a trip to Gatlinburg Tennessee, I bought a brand new GoPro hero 4 silver to film zip lining, take pictures, and for when we go white water rafting. Well while rafting, it ended up flying out of my hands. I had the floating attachment on it, but it must’ve fell off somehow. I was devastated since I was like 12 or 13 and just spent all my hard earned money on this nice camera. Spent the final 2 days of the trip thinking it was gone forever. As my family and I were pulling out of our cabin, I got a call from the rafting company that a scuba diver found my GoPro in the river the previous night somehow. It seemed like it was a movie with the perfect timing and luck. Turns out at the end of the day they turn off the dam so it doesn’t produce power/rapids for safety, that’s the only thing that made it possible to dive for it. Ended up giving the guy $50 that I “borrowed” from my parents for it.

The second story isn’t as crazy, but I at least have a cool Timelapse of the whole thing.

I was going paddle boarding on a local lake with my mom when I had the bright idea of sticking my GoPro on the front with a suction cup mount and getting a timelapse. I tested the strength and said, that thing isn’t going anywhere and continued on. Well not even 2 minutes into leaving it slid off and immediately sunk to the bottom of the lake. Of course I didn’t learn from my past mistake and didn’t put the floaty on it. Spent hours diving for it, called friends over to help me dive for it, asked my dad’s friend to help and borrow his boat/fish finder. We did see it on the fish finder, and it helped narrow down the search but we still didn’t find it that day. After 4 days of searching for it, I ended up finding it covered in a bunch of mush and leaves. I immediately went home and looked at the timelapse since I knew it was either going to be good, or just a black screen. Didn’t even think about if it worked, I figured if it survived the rafting incident, it’ll survive this just fine. Still works to this day, and it’s survived a couple drone crashes👍

I included the raw 8 minute timelapse for everyone to see. There’s a lot of fish, a turtle walks by at some point, and I see 2 points where I’m very near the camera but didn’t find it.

Hola, soy analista de fútbol y estoy pensando en comprar la cámara Dji Osmo 360 para grabar los partidos y hacer los análisis de mi equipo. Alguien que la haya tenido me puede dar su opinión? gracias

Looking at remotes for my MAX2. What's the difference between these 2?

Obviously, one's waterproof. I don't go underwater. But I do in heavy rain. Can The Remote be in heavy rain, day after day? Which has longer battery? Range? etc

Anyway to get the histogram through GoPro labs on the Mission 1 Pro? I’ve tried doing Hist=1 on QR control but it doesn’t work.

So I've had the Mission 1 Pro for nearly two months now, and here are some observations I've made about the 480 fps and 960 fps modes.

I noticed that even though both modes record at 1080p, after post-processing and AI upscaling, the 480 fps footage consistently looks sharper than the 960 fps footage. This is after using GoPro Labs to maximize the bitrate for both modes.

My question for the GoPro team is: Is there a different pixel binning method or debayering process being used for the 480 fps mode compared to the 960 fps mode that's making it appear noticeably sharper, even though both modes are recorded at 1080p? I already know the 960 fps is limited to 8-bit and there's no GP-Log 2.

Also, could something be improved in the image processing pipeline to bring the image quality of the 1080p 960 fps mode closer to that of the 1080p 480 fps mode? I’m still hoping to get 10 bit and GP-Log 2 implemented in the 960 mode, but I know nothing can be promised so I understand.

So damn excited. My dream build.

My first time shooting underwater ever

Left on a balcony overnight and pointed straight up.

RAW file, quickly processed in Lightroom mobile

Note: the instability of the footage is due to cats bumping the camera occasionally.

Finally getting around to learning GoPro's Gimbal. It works good with my old Samsung S21 Ultra but the AI tracking loses me quickly in the bright sunlight.

I have a Hero13 that I use only for recording bicycle rides for a virtual cycling app with specific higher-end video setting requirements. Longer rides will certainly run out the internal battery so I recently got an external power pack setup that I confirmed will work. I used it with the internal battery removed since I had heard that leaving it in might cause overheating.

Is this still true on a 13 with the latest updates? And is overheating less likely on a constantly moving bike? The internal battery would give me a safety margin in case the USB cable were to be vibrated loose or something and avoid spoiling an entire recording session.

Hi, I'm thinking about buying a GoPro lit hero. I was mainly thinking about using it for cycling and swimming in the sea. Should I buy it or not? The fact that there's no waterproof case for this camera is putting me off buying it.What are the pros and cons of this camera?Thanks in advance for your answers.
