I just got a Git2P 170 degree and am totally new to action cams, so I'd like to get some feedback from you guys regarding settings, etc.
I plan to use the cam mostly for recording bicycle rides, hikes and other site seeing during an upcoming trip in Asia. I'm thinking I'll use the bike mount that came with the cam to mount it on the handlebars and use a selfie stick for hikes and site seeing. Most recording will be during the day but I'll also do some night recording to capture the light shows, etc. Oh, and probably an external mic.
Firmware version is: git2ps_v1.0_0328
Settings I've changed out of the box:
1080p 60fps
Gyro on
WDR on
60 Hz
NTSC
Date stamp off
Everything else is default.
Is this a good starting point?
Anything else you recommend I tweak or try while testing the cam prior to my trip?
What are your thoughts on using an external mic?
When I'm in Shanghai, I might look out for an inexpensive gimbal selfie stick... do you guys think it's very worthwhile, any brands you recommend?
