I am going out now at -12 degrees outside for about an hour. Its sunny right now so its my chance to see how this things can do great video. Will get back to you guys!

From my observations, camera has software stabilisation based on data from gyro inside. It's obvious because when you turn off gyro stabilisation video gets even more viewing angle and a bit more resolution. So with gyro on videos have only near 1080p resolution.. so stabilisation is made by software which makes crop from sensor and moves it based on gyro data to maintain fluid move and get rid of shakes...

that's basically how they all work unless it's OIS

Its really that. The gyro is hardware for providing necessary data. There is also a software part to this which take this data to stabilize the video. That how i see it.

Has anybody experienced an issue with the screen becoming overly bright? So much so I really can't see what is going on. The camera was fine for the first week I had it but the contrast changed suddenly the other day whilst I was using it. I have updated the firmware just in case it was a software issue but I still have the same problem?

 

[Mtz]

This is the first time I see this problem which is real. Try to take out the battery for about 1 hour.
China is in 2 weeks holiday and the gitup answers are not coming fast in this period.

enjoy,

This afternoon I tested a external microphone. It cost only 2€ and work very good.

Audio sensitivity in cam: Low

Where did you get this cable from?

Is it a "GoPro HERO3 Mini USB to 3.5mm Audio Adapter"?
(or is it a generic brand?)

I bought this item http://m.aliexpress.com/item/323620...ero-3-3-4&tracelog=wwwdetail2mobilesitedetail
but the seller wrong the item and sent this

I see, so it was supposed to be a one piece cable, and they sent you a two piece system.

I'll contact the seller and see if they offer this alone.[/QUOTE]

Take care with adapters because not all are working. First, it must to be compatible with Hero 4 and to be sure it is working with GoPro, not just advertised. Maybe @Nigel will give you more advices.
GitUp have their microphone on their site. It is looking like this:

I see that your mic is stereo but I only hear right channel. I think that the adapter is not doing it's job properly.

I see that your mic is stereo but I only hear right channel. I think that the adapter is not doing it's job properly.

I have the same adapter and it really works just for one channel. And another one from GearBest (with straight micro-USB connector) also have just two wires in cable (instead of 3 required for stereo). So if you want stereo now you can buy expensive GoPro adapter or you can make adapter yourself.

 

[Speakoff]

For stereo, need 10pin connectors.

GearBest's adapter has 10-pin connector but wire for just one channel :-(

Yes. Buying only original gopro or you can make adapter yourself.
I bought this, and all is well.))

Yes I'm also ordered connectors from eBay. So I hope some day I'll receive them and I'll make stereo adapter

Yes, the adapter is mono. I knew but I want test the position of microphone
I made a 10 pin conector but the resistor was 33KOhm. When I get a resistor of 330KOhm (stereo) I will try

Hi,

I tested every combination of resolution/fps (gyro on and all other settings on "default").

1080p@60fps: https://mega.nz/#!ek8zGKKJ!_Uje1y3MK0Wpx5H9t1MDmDuoctoWdUwioQO0_CdfKA8
1080p@30fps: https://mega.nz/#!qltCAIjZ!btBW3ooirF1I9q6gBXsY-ztaK5TWLzxT2cmixbDl5Y8
720p@120fps: https://mega.nz/#!ux9kDIKB!WjyeEny4nrR4LsQJceQpue6W1WdtK1KxjekhcdlM4pM

640x480p@240fps: https://mega.nz/#!KltBXRDY!PznDTIKWEHUg5BWtjLLXbTPFnEyHkdhVmb8hZf_RVl8

As you can see, I have problems with 720p (all fps) and 640x480p@240fps.

Firmware is the last from December.

December is not the latest firmware. Check the firmware thread in this forum and make sure you follow the upgrade instructions exactly. It's not the same as previous upgrades.
