sunshine51 Posted July 7, 2015 Author Share Posted July 7, 2015 GoPro Does It Again... Well...the nice folks at GoPro have released a new camera and no, it's not the HERO 5. They have released their new HERO 4 Session. Hmmmmmm....what's this you ask? Well...it's really small for starters... Here's their links for your perusal... http://shop.gopro.com/Marketing/cameras/hero4-session/CHDHS-101-master.html?utm_content=heroplus-img&utm_medium=email&utm_source=Product&utm_campaign=ET_Product_Announcement_HERO4Session_SL-Introduce_07062015&ExactTarget=true http://shop.gopro.com/Marketing/cameras/hero4-session/CHDHS-101-master.html?utm_content=heroplus-img&utm_medium=email&utm_source=Product&utm_campaign=ET_Product_Announcement_HERO4Session_SL-Introduce_07062015&ExactTarget=true#/tab2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guzzi850m2 Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 I just bought a SJ4000wi-fi today, the real deal, 2900 + 1200 baht for a 32GB Transcend class10 micro sd card. I found it in Tukcom in Pattaya and had carefully watched U-tube clips beforehand on what to check so you know it's an original SJ4000 and not a knock-off. Be careful when buying those, some cheap Chinese copies around and they are not so good from what I can read on-line. I plan to mount it on my motor bike and scooter and start filming but the brackets that comes with it is for bi-cycle and I don't want it on top of my helmet, so will likely try buying one of those chest straps and see how that goes. The cam is very simple to use and you can operate all 4 bottoms on the 30m water resistant housing easily, even with bike gloves on. Now I have to start learning how to edit video clips, I will likely start with Win live movie maker unless somebody here have some suggestions which software to use?

sunshine51 Posted July 13, 2015 Author Share Posted July 13, 2015 Guzzi...I don't know about your SJ4K but the GoPro comes with free editing software. You can also download it online...used to be free & I think it still is. Have a look. Maybe the SJ website also offers similar editing software? Good luck.

Thanks, no no editing software for the SJ4 and the files are not compatible with the Gopro ones so I am looking into a video converter right now so I can edit in Gopro Studio. Thankfully all the small things you need for it: chest strap, head strap, floating device, selfie stick (heavens no man) and all the other stuff you might need is compatible with GoPro so I just bough a box on Ebay with 30 items in it for 1300 baht. Then later if I decide to go for a 4K GoPro I can just use all that stuff so that is very good and makes life simpler, actually above box have dedicated room for 2 cams. I also think some people uses the SJ4 for more risky shooting and then a GoPro under more safe conditions, some GoPro's are 500$ my SJ4 is 85$ and the first unedited video clip I shoot from it looks good.

sunshine51 Posted July 13, 2015 Author Share Posted July 13, 2015 For a good encoder try these folks... http://www.pegasys-inc.com/ I use their sw when clients have strange requests and it works great. Surprised SJ has no editing stuff....thanks for the nfo. g Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guzzi850m2 Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 I found a free one without watermarking: http://www.squared5.com/svideo/mpeg-streamclip-win.html http://www.blogdot.tv/2015/02/12/use-qumox-sj4000-sjcam-official-gopro-studio-software/ So I convert my video files into mpeg4 files and I can then use GoPro studio for editing.

guzzi850m2 Posted July 16, 2015 Share Posted July 16, 2015 Please post your videos guzzi when they are ready, Well my 30 item bits box was first shipped yesterday and I will soon go work overseas for 2 month so it might be a while and so far only family videos that will not be aired on-line. Well the topic is still here when I get back so if I manage to shot something looking not too embarrassing I might public it but no guarantees. I am still amazed that you can buy a HD action cam for under 100$ that shots good looking movies, all can afford that and it's so simple to use compared to a still camera.

Especially the last wave. Mind you...bikes as well as jet ski's make way too much noise on the water for my liking. However...it looks like fun...hah! I wonder if he's got the balls to ride his bike on the waves at another spot on Tahiti...Teahupoo? See below...shot on a Phantom... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AoP...I wouldn't go as far as saying "nearly everyone"...perhaps less than 10% but that 10% plaster their vids all over the place so the world can witness their failings. The GoPro camera and other like models have opened new avenues in film-making never before deemed possible without major expenses involved & not everybody can come up with a big Hollywood budget these days...even Hollywood. The only limiting factor when & where to use/mount a GoPro or similar variant is the film makers imagination. Not all GoPro/similar camera's films are of idiots crashing or wreaking havoc...most are down right brilliant. See my post #76 in this thread as an example. Previously unattainable until the GoPro came along. It's awfully easy to crash & burn. It's another story to create something smooth & beautiful which more people will truly enjoy...and perhaps receive some inspiration from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhythmworx Posted August 5, 2015 Share Posted August 5, 2015 Got nothing but pure respect for people surfing waves like that, also any other extreme sport people. No wonder they get all the best pussy. It's a sure way to live and a sure way to die, bet its feels great doing it though. Falling in the deep is no problem to them, the problem comes nearer the coast when they are in what is basiclly foam, zero manoeverability to get air. I'll stick to MTB'ing, just not Red Bull style off canyons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guzzi850m2 Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Here is Jeb Corliss "Grinding the crack" I think I read somewhere that it took him years to plan. He must fell very much alive after a glide like that and I think he would had done it even if the small action cams wasn't invented, those guys live for a rush like that.
