Usage Guide
Batteries, Charging Devices, and Memory Cards
If recording for ~1.5 hours or less, you will not need battery BacPac (Additional battery that is
attached to the back of the GoPro)
GoPro itself will have an ~1.5 hour battery life; this decreases based on video mode i.e. a
higher resolution/more pixels (1080 vs. 720) will give you less battery life
If recording for 1.5+ hours, you will need the battery BacPac. Battery BacPac + Camera’s internal
battery = 3 hours of battery
After battery BacPac and camera battery have been depleted, you can switch out the battery
inside the camera for another charged one.
A 64 gb memory card will give you 5+ hours of video
Distance:
Place the GoPro at desired height/distance using your iPhone screen to guide your positioning of the
camera while running GoPro App
For optimal sound (in interview), place GoPro ~2 feet from interviewees\
Lighting:
Have the camera in front of your largest/brightest light source
i.e. If you have a window with a lot of natural lighting, put the camera in front of the window.
Note: Be careful with shadows; might come from camera itself or other objects in obstructing
your light source
Camera lens not facing window
Angle & Height:
Use the GoPro app to guide your tilting of the camera/deciding the angle
A lot of the screws that are a part of the different mounting options (suction/grip) can be loosened
and thus the camera can be physically tilted
When recording, place camera slightly higher than what you are recording; if doing an interview, align
camera lens 1 to 2 inches higher than center of interviewee’s face
GoPro App/Operating:
Best way to record is using iPhone App/Computer app
