I'm late to the game but I really want to get onboard with GoPro.
1). What is the best method, place and hardware to set up in a 914 2). What version of the GoPro is optimal for the teener in all of us 3). Tips and tricks working with and maximising the value of the camera/software Thanks for your thoughtful responses in advance. I can't imagine buying anything car related without checking here first. Hi,....my name is Ben and I'm a worldaholic.... |

It seems most folks are mounting them on the windshield with the suction cup mount. We bought the video back for ours, but I think the long life battery is a better choice. Though there is a lag from real time, the Bluetooth feature does make it nice to be able to monitor and control the camera remotely. I bought a Hero 3+, but there is a newer one out now.
What do people do for a microphone? The closed cases seem to muffle the sound levels significantly. |
