    Thanks for the tips, especially the calibration and proper angles for the grip. The grip and Karma drone are awesome.

    Very useful video! I really liked the recalibration trick. Thanks for that. I have the Karma Grip but was only holding it vertical. I will try the 45 degree angle next time I take it for a walk. Also, I know what you mean about the Karma Grip losing orientation on a vehicle. I tried taking out-the-window footage with it on a drive through wine country, and the wind was too strong for the gimbal. My footage came out severely tilted. It did look fabulous when I kept it inside the car and the window up though.

  • @AndietheLab
    @AndietheLab 6 років тому

    I absolutely love the Karma grip... use it for all of Andie the Lab adventures BUT even when calibrated and updated... I have issues. Sometimes the Karma (when fully charged) will "shut down" - flashing red lights... I have to power down and back up. I've used with Hero 5 and more recently Hero 6. With both cameras, more so with Hero 6... the Karma will stop communicating with camera. I have to remove camera, take out battery, and then put back together in order to resume filming. Since making this video -- have you experienced any of this, and have you tried with updated Hero6? You voiced a love for the Hero 5 -- curious your thoughts on Hero 6 (I love this one even more )!! Thanks for feedback!!

Quick question -does anybody know or Adorama do you sell the mini mic stand you used on the non karma grip GoPro5 here, looked like good quality and after something like that. thanks again Mark great video.

    I have used the karma grip on a car and it was a little better maybe because it doesn't lean as much as a motorcycle through turns. It had a nice effect where it would follow the turns. I have it posted in my channel. Great video and very informative. I enjoyed watching and getting some tips from you. I had no idea about the proper way to hold it.

    I have two of the Hero 5's and they work well, the Karma Grip I have no interest in without external sound options.
    Can't understand how GoPro totally missed this.

    • @opwave79
      @opwave79 7 років тому +1

      I agree with you. I don't really like the sound recording on the Hero 5 anyway, and have opted to spend extra on a Zoom H1 to capture audio. It's a little effort to sync, but I love the quality.

    Hi!! I'm jumping late on the karma Grip...but I really need to know (if anyone can answer or has any experience). Does the Karma works for Skiing videos? With carving technique, the Karma could be set in a way that is very close to 45º, but seeing the BMW video, I wonder if it might happen the same thing. I'm not a high speed skiier...I rather carve and link edges rather than speed down hill with ample curves. Does anyone have had experienced this grip in such conditions? Thanks you for a great video!!

  • @Areala69
    @Areala69 6 років тому

    Hello, I'm new. Just purchased my first gopro 5 and the karma grip. You said that you could not hook up an external microphone but could you use a wireless external micro phone. Probably a stupid question but I am 67 and just purchased this and I am having fun learning.....so far...

    @twelvewingproductions7508 6 років тому

    Ok.. great video. The thing I found hilarious, however, was that from a composition standpoint... the best shots in the entire video were the shots where the Karma handle was loosing it's orientation as you rode your bike.
    If you had said nothing about the accidental orientation loss... you would have probably won an award for cinematography for those shots.
    Thanks for posting this. It was very helpful.

    Kind of feels a bit like an ad for the Karma grip. But the footage does look great. I've got the Hero 4 though. I've been wondering if it would be worthwhile getting the grip or investing in something like the Osmo.

      @kashedbowl3893 6 років тому

      Jayne yes it works mounted on a backpack strap. GoPro sells the karma in a package with the drone that comes with a backpack and karma mount just for exactly this.

  • @claud9999
    @claud9999 7 років тому +6

    Why didn't GoPro include an accelerometer either in the Hero 5 or Karma grip so that it can sense the force of gravity (so you wouldn't need to re-calibrate it, and it'd likely had performed better on the motorcycle.)

  • @joan_costa

  • @successmadesimple3537
    @successmadesimple3537 7 років тому

    I don't know.. my thing is, these go pros aren't really used for professional purposes, so who really needs the full resolution or scale besides someone who's fooling their self? Just save a few hundred, and throw whatever 4k footage from gopro in a video editor, and just add image stabilization there. It tends to work very well.

  • @rdkuless
    @rdkuless 4 роки тому

    The GPS function on the GoPro Hero7 sucks... i was on my bicycle traveling less than 5mph and the gauges said i was traveling 289mph. I traveled a twisted path in a big loop. The map overlay showed i traveled a straight course. Not one of the gauges were even close to accurate. I returned it to GoPro in California, they sent me another and it was also defective. when i complained, they told me that the Gauges have never worked on any of their Hero7 blacks. The audio for narrative/speaking only works with that hug, ugly dongle that is as big as the camera. If you turn on any of these: GPS, WiFi, connectivity, or Voice control, you loose over 2/3rds of the battery range. In my opinion. the Insta360 OneX has better battery range, 5k video record, excellent audio (with audio 3.5mm audio mic plug) And it is a 360 camera with invisible selfie stick (you can't see it in the video..appears as if you are being filmed by a drone) All in all it is a far better bet for the money.. GoPro was the best...Can't say that anymore.. AnotherOneBitesTheDust..!
