Baller JC McCavit Posted March 8, 2020 Baller Share Posted March 8, 2020 Do either of these cameras record sound? Which is better for recording slalom from a pylon mount? Can video from the camera be wirelessly transferred to your phone? Is there a remote start stop method if only the driver is in the boat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Horton Posted March 9, 2020 Administrators Share Posted March 9, 2020 GoPro Hero 8 does all that and extremely well. as far as starting and stopping the recording I connect my phone to the camera with Bluetooth and just hit the record button before I take off on every pass. https://www.instagram.com/p/B9fp3i3BS6u/?igshid=1gefvbrqlt82u Goode ★ HO Syndicate ★ KD Skis ★ MasterCraft ★ PerfSki Radar ★ Reflex ★ S Lines ★ Stokes ★ Baller Video Coaching System Become a Supporting Member or make a One-time Donation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller bojans Posted March 9, 2020 Baller Share Posted March 9, 2020 @Horton Is that the standard Ski-Doc or the Orbit? The video is much smoother than any other system I have seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller_ mike_mapple Posted March 10, 2020 Baller_ Share Posted March 10, 2020 @Horton if you have questions shoot me an email, Ive been playing with settings for a few other sports, but have been looking to do some ski testing, but good to the hypersmooth 2.0 really works well with the ski doc Performance Ski and Surf Mike@perfski.com 👾 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller JC McCavit Posted March 10, 2020 Author Baller Share Posted March 10, 2020 @Horton, does the hero 8 have a built in microphone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller_ mike_mapple Posted March 10, 2020 Baller_ Share Posted March 10, 2020 @JC McCavit They do have a build in microphone, they are also releasing a new MOD system that will have an even higher quality one that you can attach (more focused for VLOGers how ever.

Baller richfoster Posted April 13, 2020 Baller Share Posted April 13, 2020 @Horton Are you still liking the orbit/hero8 combo? How is the shake during really hard turns? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller gcam4 Posted August 26, 2021 Baller Share Posted August 26, 2021 @Horton Are you still using the hero8? I've seen some of your other posts about older cell phones and didn't know if you are happiest with the 8? I know they now have a 9 out and the 10 will surely be out soon.

Baller skibug Posted August 26, 2021 Baller Share Posted August 26, 2021 Hero 9 is great, couple with gopro labs firmware for QR code triggers. They have speed triggers that work just like wake eye. The QR code triggers work for the Hero 8 as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Zman Posted August 26, 2021 Baller Share Posted August 26, 2021 Do you have to use Hero 9 for speed triggers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller Zman Posted August 26, 2021 Baller Share Posted August 26, 2021 @richfoster You might have your answer about camera shake in the video posted above? Skier is popping the rope on every turn, and video still looks good. When I pop the rope like that using my Samsung phone, video goes all blurry at hookup.

Baller BS74 Posted August 26, 2021 Baller Share Posted August 26, 2021 The only drawback of gopro is that you can't zoom in while recording. Correct me if I'm wrong. It just records too far away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller 503Kento Posted August 26, 2021 Baller Share Posted August 26, 2021 @zman no, I have a 7 and the QR config with speed triggers works great. Get high, Get fast, and do some good work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller skibug Posted August 26, 2021 Baller Share Posted August 26, 2021 @BS74 you can zoom in during recording. I use a 1.3 zoom and that works great from 28 off through 39 off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baller Fastguy888 Posted August 26, 2021 Baller Share Posted August 26, 2021 The sound on the new GoPro Hero 9 is very good. I use it both professionally and for fun; often the sound quality of the GoPro in action environments is better than a second "high-end" mic I use. Here is a video with all natural sound from the GoPro. Lots of other stuff on my YouTube channel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baller pregom Posted September 16, 2021 Baller Share Posted September 16, 2021 Apparently, GoPro will announce their new Hero10 tomorrow, Sept 16. From all the leaks, it seems very promising! https://gopro.com/en/us/info/hero10-black-teaser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
