"It stood up to a tornado i got hit with on my last backpacking trip in missouri."
"it literally survived a tornado while set up. I just had to stake it back down."
"surprisingly solid tent for hunkering down for a day or two in very wet and stormy Wyoming weather. ... exceed the quality of a lot of Western branded mid range tents in the $500 USD pricing tier based on my experience of seeing colleagues with a couple of very well known and popular mid tiered tents struggling under stronger winds and wetter weather."

"I used the 10 to make a running video yesterday and I can’t believe how much better the stabilization is."
"better stabilization & colors ... the colors are so nice"
"The most important thing if you're filming video is image stabilization, which gopro is best of class at for non-professionals. ... There's nothing worse than shaky cam footage underwater and it's really good at producing smooth footage even for beginners."

"I have the t housing power case. It fits the GoPro plus the digi refuel battery pack and the case goes down to 800 ft (or something like that l, forgot the actual number since I ain't never going that deep anyway). It has magnetic red filters and magnetic macro lense I can easily pop on and off during the dive as needed"
"The biggest advantage of the GoPro it's the sheer number of accesories available. ... Every mount you need like for cars, motorcycles, mountain bikes, etc... You will find it easy for GoPros."
"I also like the various options for harnesses and mounts since it’s a well known brand."

"they dont DELETE YOUR FOOTAGE FOR NO REASON ... from the hero -until the 12 black every single one at one point or another simply corrupted/deleted a whole days of videos. ... i will not give GoPro another single $ until they figure out wtf happens where it corrupts/deletes videos. its a useless camera if it cant save a video."
"this one errors saying the bin is full, it's not full I just saw and heard it empty out. ... The fix we are using is to force the unit to empty the bin via the app, once that happens it goes oh yeah we're good and starts vacuuming again. ... It turns a 2 hour job into a 6 hour job as we're not sitting here waiting to mash buttons that we shouldn't have to. ... There is nowhere in the app or web portal where you can force a firmware download, I think it's what this unit needs."
"the crappy software updates, constant errors and resets broke me."

"GoPro enduro batteries were dying quite fast when it was cold outside (snowboarding at -15 C/ 5F). ... Maybe that’s because of their age, but I didn’t use it that much. ... And 1 of 2 batteries is already swollen."
"I have 3 batteries for my 8 and they’ve been crap since I got them when it is cold. ... Have to store the stupid camera in a pocket on the ski lift, etc, and it still sucks."

"If I record for more than 14 minutes it will freeze and battery is already almost dead. This is at night night by the way so temperature isn't high."
"and they also overheat. It could be that I'm in Australia, but I've mounted my Insta in my car to record random stupidity and then find it's off and recorded a minute or two before dying. ... Just Google Insta overheating, and it's an issue they are 100% trying to hide."

I have a Hero 7 Silver and a Hero 10 Black I bought last weekend. I used the 10 to make a running video yesterday and I can’t believe how much better the stabilization is. It’s an amazing camera so I’d say that’s my favorite.
r/gopro • Which is your favorite GoPro? ->As others said any GoPro from 11-13 (I would even say starting with Gpro 9) would work. I would also recommend the gorpox Max (360) great for something like shark cage where you can re-fesme the video later....just keep in mind 360 is a pia dealing with file sizes and whatever you do don't scratch the lenses
r/gopro • Action camera for travel ->similar story, I used all gopros from 6 to 12, but switched over to Osmo Action about a year ago and my life just changed. Refreshing to see that action camera can actually be reliable and not crash and overheat all the time, better battery life, faster UI, better quick release system. These are just some of the reasons to switch.
r/gopro • GoPro Hero 13 vs. DJI Action 5 Pro – Is GoPro Still King for Adventure Filming? ->The 9 was packed with more features than previous cameras, but was still using the old GP1 processor, which means the UI and UX can be somewhat sluggish, and performance sufffers as a result. The Hero 10 is essentially a Hero 9, just using the faster and more efficient GP2 processor.
r/gopro • GoPro Hero Black 9 - worth it still? ->I have the GoPro 10 and I really like it for snorkeling and freediving but it has many flaws that the GoPro 13 still has: - The battery lasts half as long as the competition - If it gets hot it turns off and heats up very easily - The app is garbage, I have been paying 50 euros a year since I bought it just for the cloud storage but it is very slow to upload and download files or simply view them even if you are connected to the router by cable. - The competition uses some improvements like automatic color correction with AI (insta360) which really works amazing for diving videos - Automatic GoPro videos are simply taking random pieces of several clicks and putting meaningless music on them - They don't pay attention to the forum or anything you tell them to improve, m. The heating problems have been going on since the first GoPro and something as simple as letting you choose the cover of a video by choosing a frame from the video itself does not let you do it. Anyway, you send them ideas to improve and they don't respond. Honestly, in a few years I will change cameras and go to the competition if GoPro doesn't improve and it doesn't look like it will do so.
r/gopro • Why so much Hate for GoPro now? ->Despite some popular opinions on here. I really like my GoPro Hero 10 Black. Being new to scuba, focus on the diving and less on the camera. It can easily distract you from buoyancy, safety, your group, etc. Not speaking from a high horse here as I’m also fairly new. And I’ve caught myself being distracted by it. I now carry it to capture the really amazing stuff and less about trying to be a insta-scuba-hoe. (I’m a fat white guy, so no hopes there)
r/scuba • Best budget camera? ->Ik gebruik de GoPro 10. Bij mij werd er in de winkel destijds verteld dat er zowat geen verschil in zit met de 11, 12 en 13 voor het doel dat ik graag gebruik (Geen idee of dit waar is). Nu ben ik wat makkelijker, ook niet te kieskeurig en dus heb ik besloten om de 10 te nemen met wat geheugenkaarten en extra batterijen erbij. Dit had niet gekund als ik voor de 11/12/13 zou kopen. Voor de leuke maar ook zeker de mindere momenten op de motor staan nu alles goed op beeld van mijn elke rit. [Youtube referentie](https://youtube.com/@blogisodespresents?feature=shared)
r/motorfietsen • Beste camera's voor filmen op de motor ->I would avoid GoPro Hero 10 or beyond. Those are the only Hero cameras I have experience with and they're a huge PITA especially for motorcycling. It either doesn't turn on, doesn't record, or records with no audio ALL THE TIME. If you happen to notice it's not turning on, then you get to pull over, take your helmet off, unmount the camera, and fiddle with it until you figure out what's not working. Usually requiring you to remove and reinsert the battery. It's the most frustrating thing ever on a bike and I'd argue dangerous since you're preoccupied with the camera instead of your ride. I tried working with a Hero 10 and 11 for over 2 years before I swore them off forever. I recently switched to Insta360 and couldn't be happier. The Insta has literally not one time malfunctioned or not recorded when I pressed the button. I also have an old DJI Osmo Action that never had reliability issues. I would say any Osmo Action gen or the previous gen Insta360 (R One or something like that I cant' remember the name) would do the job well. If part of its job is dashcam you might also consider a 360 camera. You'll have way butter luck catching incidents with it than a regular action cam. I also have a GoPro 360 MAX camera. Unlike the Hero cameras, it's been great. It's still glitchy at times but nowhere near the regularity of the Hero cameras. It's kind long in the tooth now too so you may be able to find them on a good deal somewhere.
r/motorcyclegear • What camera is best for recording riding. ->It's simple to me. GoPro Hero cameras are a huge PITA to use. They're horribly unreliable and nowadays DJI/Insta look just as good. It's been like this since at least Hero 10. They have done nothing to fix the Hero line and continue to push out a new model every year. It's corporate greed and it's killing the company. I've spent a lot of money on GoPro gear only to be burned by them over and over again. I go out of my way to recommend against GoPro any time some asks. I will give credit where it's due though. The MAX 360 has been a great camera for me. I don't have any of the issues that are so abundant on Hero cameras. It's the only GoPro product I've had a good experience with but I still can't recommend it because of the culture at GoPro. I know if anything comes up that requires them to lift a finger to fix, it will remain broken forever while they work on the next yearly model release.
r/MTB • Is GoPro dying? ->I use a GoPro 10 camera and a DJI Osmo Action 4. Both have good stabilization, and the 4K 60fps footage is incredible. You can see the results on my YouTube channel. [https://youtube.com/@alaingsadventure?si=wGhYaHDucA12cWZG](https://youtube.com/@alaingsadventure?si=wGhYaHDucA12cWZG)
r/motorcyclegear • Motorcycle camera without extra features? ->I have a GoPro 10 and I recently bought a DJI Osmo Action 4, and frankly, the image quality of the Action 4 is superior, even with the same 4K 60fps settings. Not to mention how easy it is to add wireless microphones!
r/gopro • Is the go pro hero 10 better than the duo action 3 ->Yeah it is overkill. Overkill in both price and features because though they’re great as action cameras, you don’t need the stabilization, high frame rates, and rugged design for your casual travel videos mate. If you really want one, you can get an older GoPro (Hero 9, 10, or 11) if you find a good deal since they still have solid stabilization and decent built-in mics (still relatively heavy when clipped to a cap, and after 30 minutes, you might feel the strain honestly) I’d suggest you check on the Insta360 GO 3, it’s tiny, weighs only 35g, and comes with a magnetic clip that can be attached to a cap more comfortably than a bulky GoPro. Otherwise, you could also check on the DJI Osmo Action 4 or Akaso Brave 7 LE too, all decent prices for your use case. You could try [10 Best Action Cameras to Invest in 2025: Full Guide and Review](https://alaskanarrows.com/10-best-action-cameras-to-invest-in-2025/) for other options too. Tldr: GoPro overkill, Insta360 more appropriate, can consider getting an older GoPro like the 9,10 or 11 if you can get a good price
r/gopro • I would like to buy an action camera, to clip it onto my baseballcap cuz I’ll travel a lot and want video footage for my family. ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
