After numerous comments on our YouTube channel and our blog, we decided to create this Hero 5 Black getting started guide to help those who have just purchased their first GoPro get up and run quickly and easily. Today GoPro’s are no longer used just for extreme sports and by athletes. We are now seeing more and more GoPro’s being used by a wide variety of people in many age groups for capturing family vacations, YouTube vlogs, nature enthusiasts and even just some backyard fun. The GoPro Hero 5 Black is a powerful little camera that can do some amazing things but getting started with your first GoPro can be a little overwhelming and sometimes frustrating. We get many questions such as “what memory do I need” and “what is 4K” or “how do I make a time-lapse” among many others. So We decided to create a series of videos specifically for those who are brand new to the GoPro world. We are going to break up the videos into different segments each with its own theme.
Our first video in this new series is titled “Getting Started” and covers every aspect to get a brand new GoPro owner up and running and recording their very first video.
