GoPro Hero5 Tutorial - Getting Started + GoPro Settings Cheat Sheet

GoPro Settings Cheat Sheet

Today, I'm kicking off a 30 day video challenge and giving you access to my printable GoPro Settings cheat sheet!

I do a lot of tutorials and How-To videos here but I've never really gone way back to the basics for brand new GoPro owners, so that's what the next 30 days is all about.

So welcome to 30 Days of GoPro, a Guide for Beginners!

I don't work for GoPro, I'm not an employee, we're just friends and I am a member of the GoPro family.

Well Meredeth, I'm really looking forward to this I bought my first gopro 5 black several months ago and as a new and very novice user to the video shooting and editing world I'm excited as this is a world filled with untouched opportunities that provides a new way to liven up and share our adventures and memorable moments with friends and loved ones. Thank you for the passion that you put into sharing your knowledge with us that are not in the know yet.
Kind regards

I'm looking forward to this! I have got set in my ways with the GoPros so it will be good to look back and see what I have forgotten that worked.

Just received confirmation that my new GoPro 5 has shipped! I ordered it on the trade up program - traded in the flooded Hero 2! . I'm so looking forward to this, so I can use the 30 days with it! Love the series, been following along, albeit with the Hero 4, which has also been a great camera! Thanks Meredith for all the great tutorials!!

You are my hero, hope to get more out of my 5 Black over my old 3, mostly due to the screen and your vids. I am loooking forward to this, thanks for the help.

I'm back and "I am looking forward to it." I have a black and looking forward in learning more about it.

[UberDCDriver]

You have been such a great reference for me and my GoPro's. I just bought the Hero Sessions 5. So far I am in love with it.

[blackrockbrewing]

Okay, you are a genius! This is exactly what I need. I got a Hero5 Black for Christmas, opened it up and it just seemed too overwhelming so I just put it back in the box and haven't used it. I need this info and I like how you break things down into digestible bites. The basic info is very needed, thank-you!

Hey VidProMom, I'm looking forward to this because I recently got a Hero 5 black myself and it will be neat to see what this little video camera can do.  I'm still green and tutorials are a way better way to learn.  I've already learned many shortcuts from your older videos.

[mithunmukherjee]

Thanks for putting this series together. We bought a Hero 5 a few weeks ago to graduate from using our iPhones to something more professional to document our family's memories and our 5 year old son (and my motorcycle trips :)). Looking forward to this!
