I have the same model. It seems to handle my smaller cards like 64gb okay, but it will not use the pricey 256gb cards. Of course I didn’t find that out until I’d recorded a week of touring videos on it. I still need to see if the local computer guru center can rescue the majority of the files. If you buy a mew card, I’d avoid real big ones.
2 years agoI have the gopro hero 9. It has amazing image stabilization and works really well! This my 3rd gopro and it is definitely better than the prior models. My SD card is old so it could be the problem. It’s only happened a couple of times a day I use it alot.
2 years agoMy guess is it’s not necessarily the card that’s the problem. I’ve had a few instances where gopros decided to eat files. It’s happened on both of my GoPros with different cards. The one I have now, a fairly new model, does not like big SD cards. I think they’re just finicky devices. I’ve seen plenty of other people complaining online about it. I’ve also seen a lot of complaints about other brands of action cameras though. You’d think by now they could produce a stable one.
2 years agoVery clever!
2 years agoIt wasn’t the battery but the last video on the scoand card was corrupt. I think I need a new sd card.
2 years agoI just got lucky but thanks.
2 years agoDodie tethers the camera to me with a sewn loop in the shirt and a detachable nylon strap. If not for this, more than one camera would be in the sea, over the cliff, or hitting the pavement.
2 years agoI went with the inaccurate ploy of printing the colour swatches on my laser printer and then holding them up to the "tangerine" wall. All in all, I'm calling it "Fire", but I am rotten with colours anyway. Also, the swatch names themselves are highly debatable. For example, go get an actual orange and hold it to the screen. What they call "orange" must be a variety that we don't get here.
I tried this "actual orange" ploy with a company that sold me a cell phone they called "Cyber Yellow". But I think I proved it was not "yellow" but "orange". Still, they were not impressed.
Can you tell we have time on our hands here in the Winterlude?
Yes, I did think of you specifically, but this makes a nice backup option when you’re out biking on the ice.
2 years agoNice pictures, Rocky. It looks like Scott has some photography competition now.
2 years agoNo need to consult The Color Thesaurus when you can consult ME--a 34-year veteran of the paint industry. I'm going to call that color "Sunburnt Pumpkin Mush."
2 years agoRegarding your chirping GoPro, hopefully it was just the battery. I’ve had problems with gopros getting inexplicably grumpy with SD cards. My 256gb card got corrupted and is holding about a weeks worth of South Tyrol footage hostage including my ride on the Seiser Alm. The other 256gb card threw up an error message much more quickly. And this is with supposedly approved models of SD cards.
2 years agoNearly every town in Montana (with hills anyway) has their giant letter on the hill, Missoula has three or four, one for the university and the rest for local high schools.
2 years agoMy little sister fed it milk from a doll bottle. We thought it would die because it was so small. "Squeaker" had the run of the yard and the house. One day he just disappeared. We suspected a neighbor's cat.

I only use 64 gb since I download my videos nightly.
