@maxJ4380 it should take about 5 min. If you’re able the best way to update is through the Quik App. -
approximately how long did your update take ? I downloaded the update onto a card from the computer and i think im about 20 mins in. Gopro do say to use a battery thats 50%, mine was 85% so maybe it can take a couple of hours? The update folder size is 245 mb so a decent size i suspect. -
@kye I’m really shooting it regular, I guess? I’m not doing anything fancy other than trying to remember which way on my focus pull is far or near. Which gets annoying because of the lens changes. Lately I’ve been shooting it court side at NBA games, just using my iPhone 17 Pro Max as a monitor and the Media Mod without any other attachments for the audio. The lenses are carried in a small camera bag separated with thick paper towels to limit the clanking and potential scratching and I have a manual blower to remove any debris. I shoot in GPLog most of the time and I prefer to shoot in a 4:3 aspect ratio. Even though the Mission Monitor app allows the user to apply LUTs for monitoring, I usually like to view it flat (for me it makes it easier to see the focus peaking) or with the standard profile color LUT. My intent is to film and publish a super high quality film, run & gun style with this camera. Only using the bare minimum of equipment from lighting to sound. I know it can be done, especially with the examples you shared and what those directors used. I have a story. I just need the actors who are willing to participate in this project for food and travel expenses. I will split royalties once it’s up and available.

Awesome! So often people just talk about gear but I find myself spending far more time thinking about the camera/lens/filters combo and how it interacts with the subjects and techniques I use when shooting. I'm keen to hear how you use the kit when out and about shooting in uncontrolled and difficult situations. -
@John Matthews thanks for watching the video! Regarding the lenses, those are pretty much some of the most affordable lenses you can get for the ILS without sacrificing too much image quality. The 10mm fisheye is surprisingly good, especially considering it’s fixed at f/5.6. My biggest issue with it is the lack of a traditional filter thread for ND filters. I usually work around that by avoiding scenes with too many bright highlights, but I’m trying to figure out an affordable way to rig a variable ND using some sort of clamp system. I really want to use that lens more because I love the image it produces. The 50mm image is very good, but my least favorite out of all the lenses because it’s heavy (even though it fits the weight compatibility) and it isn’t sharp at all wide opened. Which is usually the case, but this is blurry soft. At f4 it’s lovely, but I really wanted to use it for those creamy portrait shots where I can see the emotional state of a person. As for labs, i’m familiar and have it installed, but I’m not a big fan of the whole QR code approach. I feel like a lot of those functions should already be accessible once the Labs is installed, instead of having to chase down QR codes. That said, it’sa great addition to the community! Now the new firmware features for photography look really impressive. I’ve watched a few videos on them, and I think photographers will get a lot out of it. I’m definitely not a photographer, so I’m personally waiting for more cinema related features. Also not sure if you didn’t realize when watching the video, I tend to put more details in the descriptions. I’d rather keep my videos relatively short and use a lot of footage. I’m much more comfortable writing about this stuff than talking about it on camera.
