*i love how he gives a true review without sponsor so we can truly see the pro's and con's*

This review knocks it out of the park. With the examples and tips/best practices. This sets the standard of what a review/months later video should be. I’m truly in awe. Thank you Parker and team for the hard work on this video.

Parker, one of few filmmakers that can make practical reviews. This was Great!

By far the best filmmaking channel on KZread, with high quality content...for those of you interested in filmmaking who've not purchased fulltimefilmaker, what are y'all still waiting for??? You'd be stocked!!!!

The footage in bright sunlight is gorgeous

you guys are sooo good! I am soo used to using gopros, I film with them everyday on my youtube channel, and yet the motorcycle footage surprised me. Well well done!

Hi Parker, I really love your work, you guys are amazing! I just want to tell to you there is one feature that means a lot to us who will actually use GoPro as the action camera. New Hero9 has an option to record and delete up to 30 seconds while it is turned off, so when you turn it on, it will save the last 30 seconds while it was off. That is a great option and I will upgrade my Hero8 to Hero9 mostly because of it because I am doing fishing videos. With Hero8, I have to record whole time so I don't miss fish strike. That means I am emptying battery very quickly, same as the storage room. With Hero9, my battery will last longer, same as the storage room because 95% of time I am actually filming something I won't use later. Thanks again on all your work, keep it up!

I just received my Hero 9, and it's my first ever GoPro. I just stumbled across this tutorial while searching for something non GoPro. It's the first Hero 9 tutorial I've watched and I don't think I'll find a better one so thanks for getting me started.

Still have it or have you upgraded?

I love this channel because it provides me to learn a lots of things, great features about the gear you use, love your work " FulltimeFlimmaker".

Just love it. Keep up the good work. Truly inspiring. Can't keep off my eyes for a sec. Great work.

I just love your tutorials. You give all the information we need ❤️

I love how you zoomed in and showed the example of "noise" It made it a lot easier to understand

Wow !!! Amazing review. Thanks for giving us all the ins and outs and showing us some epic footage too. 👏🏻

The quality of your videos just keeps improving.

The Playstation 5 & Parker's review of the GoPro were the two things I was most excited for in 2020.

what about covid-19? aren't you excited about that?

I appreciate the fact that you mentioned filters will interfere with stabilization. One note though. You said you'd like to see the 180° shutter rule being usable with hypersmooth but... The whole point of hypersmooth working is that it needs perfectly motion free pictures to be able to align them and smooth out the motion so unless they figure out a way to add digital motion blur we're stuck with either stabilized footage or static 24p at 1/48 shutter speed. I would actually like to see software being able to do that realistically and reliably (kinda like RSMB but better)

Woah the 7 was game changing enough with the hyper smooth but the front screen is a new level!

when ever i see your channel the first word that blows in mind is PRO

Dear Parker Walbeck ,We trust your channel for honest review and not paid .Lots of Respect and love from Mumbai, India

Great vid Parker, good to see you back on the youtube channel, was starting to miss you in these videos haha! :D

SO much value. EVERY SINGLE VIDEO. THANK YOU PARKER

Great review as always, thanks. Saving up to get my hands on that FTFM course soon...

Great video! Enjoyed that intro a lot. Good call out about its necessary to have enough light for hyper smooth to work correctly.

You need to use the MAX MOD LENS (sold separately by GoPro) with the Horizon Levelling function, then the Crop is eliminated by the larger Wide Angle Lens.

Finally someone acknowledges that Nd filters ruin the stabilization

The effect it produces, though not perfect, is kinda cool for some creative works.

This isn't fixable without going to an optical or physical form of stabilization. GoPro uses purely electronic stabilization which shifts the framing, works great so long as the shutter speed is high but once the shutter speed is lower, you'll be able to see the image shifts between frames "baked" into the footage. Anyone who thinks this can be fixed doesn't understand electronic stabilization. GoPro did improve this issue though on the Hero 9 (I never had the Hero 8 so I don't know), now in low light the shutter speed doesn't go below 180 degree shutter angle (opposed to say with the Hero 7 where it would go to a 360 degree shutter angle which magnified the issue). I found that shooting in a higher frame rate like 4K60 and then on say a 24fps timeline, you can add motion estimated motion blur to the clip in Davinci Resolve. The accuracy of the "fake" motion blur will be improved since you are sampling the action at 60fps. And this is not a simple technique like frame blending, it analyzes the motion and objects between frames then blurs it. I've had this ND filter on GoPro issue for years but then I decided to switch to Resolve in 2019 for this one built in feature alone (no need to buy an additional plug in for motion estimated motion blur). You don't need Neat Video either even though it's the best; Resolve has a solid de-noiser built in too. And finally ... Resolve heavily uses your graphics card compared to all other video editors. I use a RTX 2070 Super but cheaper cards will work fine. I was blown away when I could stack up effects, sharpening, grading etc and play it back in real time without pre rendering. Also, the Render Cache feature makes my life easier. I can pre render the entire video in Resolve as I work. Rendering a 5 minute 4K video then just takes like 1 minute or so. Messed up on a title or want to tweak a shot? Just fix that and then the render cache updates for that clip (takes just seconds), then you can render the whole video again ... in like 1 minute. Every time I see Premiere Pro (like in this video) I cringe now, people suffer way too much with that. I do believe there is a plug in for motion estimated motion blur for Premiere Pro. You can then fake the 180 degree shutter angle in post. The higher your frame rate you shot at, the better the result will be. It's not as good as true motion blur but is a great compromise. Also, Peter didn't mention something I noticed ... using an ND filter on the GoPro even in great outdoor lighting actually brings out a lot of noise in your shadows, effective dynamic range is reduced slightly. So my method of using motion estimated motion blur and ditching ND filters on GoPro for action shots is the best way to go overall for now. One more thing, I use an xRite Color Checker Passport Video as a color and contrast reference to assist with making my own corrective LUT files from scratch in Resolve to help get started with camera matching. I shoot in Protune on the GoPro, low sharpness, GoPro color (flat color produces a weird pink tint in the shadows that is excessively detrimental to your image when removed and makes reds look bad), native white balance, and usually -0.5 EV. By fixing the tint and white balance then using the color and contrast swatches on the color chart I can get to more of a natural or cinematic look that surpasses the highly saturated "video" look GoPros are known for. It's not perfect, 10 bit recording on future GoPro cameras could improve this but that is not likely a feature we will ever see. For now though, I have good methods that maximize what I can get out of this tiny camera. I literally just figured out the native white balance plus GoPro color combination yesterday, previously I used native white balance and flat color. I verified on the waveform that flat color really doesn't give you much more dynamic range, basically it's not worth it; you tend to have to add contrast or an s curve back in anyway and color suffers a lot due to the lower bit depth / steps of color recorded in the 8 bit file :)

Very well said review! Nice job parker, thinking about picking this gopro up!

So nice to see you again Parker.... Im looking at the video now.

I'm back! So, I'm gonna hit that subscribe button!!! Thanks for the detailed info 👍 good job

Best review I have ever seen of a go pro good job parker🙏

This video was excellent. High degree of knowledge. You are certainly a skilled professional!

It's good to have a real Parker Walbeck full video. We were missing this a lot.

5k looks Awesome 😍

Thanks for all the time spent uploading this information all the best in the future, God bless.

That B-Roll was amazing!

Thanks. Great review. Lots of love from India.❤️❤️❤️❤️

10:30 - Look at what the 5k Wide Lens does to those lights! Crazy

NGL, this is some of the best looking GoPro footage I've seen lately.

7:50 min mark...can u please show us or tell us what was the settings here on the bad one, and on the good one :) cuz mine sometimes looks like this bad ones...

Good to see your hero 9 video 👍 I addressed similar points in my hero 9 pros and cons video to consider before buying 👍

A genuine review covering all aspects Thanks

This video is in 2160p awesome I have seen this resolution for the first gym🥰

Great vid thanks so much for all the information mate!

Well I have been going from video to video looking up reviews and this is the first one I saved on a playlist for future use.

THIS is quality content! Thank you :))

I would have also struggled saying "hyperlapse" instead of "hypersmooth"

The demo of those crops is very helpful. But as a guy graduating from the Hero Silver 4, I'll take whatever! LOL

Thank you so much! I'm starting a vlogging channel and I vlog with my phone and I got a GoPro HERO 9 and i did not know if I should vlog with it.

Didn’t know you were in Utah. The Wasatch front in the background during golfing and golbin valley pics!

Wonderful as always. But what should be my settings while vlogging outdoors and with also an ND one?

by far the best review yet

I wont even buy the GoPro hero 9 because I'm still happy with my Hero 6, but I watch this video anyways because Parker's content is just beyond perfection

who else loves it when parker is presenting the video

Nice shots man!

Very complete and easy to understand review. I'm a gopro hero 9 black user since a year ago. I totally agree if the video recording is bad if there is low light and my experience lately, my camera often stops recording at certain minutes and if recording at high resolution it will quickly heat up and turn itself off. are you also experiencing the same thing?

Bonus side of the cropping, it hides your tiny forearms :P Thanks for sharing your thoughts - I just upgraded from the Hero3 White (no joke). My next upgrade will probably be the HERO15. LOL.

Good job & best review & explanation is awesome

Indeed a masterpiece✨

Awesome stuff! Really cool clips of the sand riding! I also saw some other clips of a small dirtbike sequence in your review of the new ronin gimbal! Do you have a link to that video? Would really love to see!

You guys are so amazing!

I have the 5 and the 7 - for years various problems with the Quik-SW for Import (on PC and Mac). As long as GoPro does not fix its SW, will not spent a bug again for their HW.

What settings would you recommend for cinematic motion blur when filming on a mountain bike in POV?

Great review and awesome to see you in my town 9:44

Great review, thank you!

THE BEST ! THANKS PARKER

Great video, lots of tips 👍

Great video. Dude man probably ran a mile by time this video was done lol

Parker, what's you lighting setup on this video? How do you get no shadows on you face while wearing a cap? Great vid by the way.

Damn first time I see gopro footage look like gopro ads! Epic stuff

hey has hecho buenas tomas muchacho, you have done nice footages great!

Thank you for the review! I was caught on "Digital lens". From what I understood from your explanation, the linear is a crop from the sensor. So, a 4K linear is a product from a sensor crop and then enlarged to 4K?

Love you brother and your content

Must have tool for a filmmaker in his toolkit. great review

You were in St. George! I used to live there. Kinda miss it. So pretty out there

Thanks for the best advice I have changed my mind now u won't but gopro 9 just loving my a6400 even no image stabilization but still its amazing 😊

Think I will get this model for my airplane! Good synopsis!

I think the cropping with hypersmooth and horizon leveling is overstated. 4k is actually 8.3megapixels so that is why they added the 20megapixel sensor so that after all the stablization and cropping you are left with 4k or 5k. Otherwise what would be the point of the 20mp sensor? Just for photos?

Nice video. Thanks for the info!

Nice and good reviews and explainations..thanks..

great review of GoPro 5k thanks.

Great content as always

Shall I buy this

Very good review thanks!

Awesome video! Great to see that this can be used for vlogging, now just to figure out how to upload without losing quality 😂

Hi, I'm Starting a vlog. Gopro hero 9 and canon eos m200. which one is better for blogging (Outdoor and indoor)

thx for giving it to us straight!

Oh yeah is amazing cinematic 😎🖒

You can use old GoPro Batteries with a 3d printed part to fill the space and they will work fine just not as long. for anyone not wanting to throw all their batteries away.

It’s not only gopro 9 these guys are expert in filming

Iam dreamin' to buy a Gopro 9 bco'z this camera is so much expenssive here in our country. Thank you for this informative video!

Thanks for the review! Hopefully the Hero 10 comes with a bigger sensor. :)

amazing video broooo!!

Hello, I really enjoyed watching this video, and I enjoy watching all of your videos. In the video you say that there are "bad settings" and "good settings". I use the GoPro Hero 9 and indeed the photo quality is not good. Can you please help me what are the good settings "?

Quality production.

Hey Parker, just FYI, the mailchimp lav mic submission form here mailchi.mp/fulltimefilmmaker/ftfgear is not working. The subscribe button just leads to a '#header' value and doesn't engage a contact box for email. Probably a quick fix. May not affect everyone but for me not working on latest Chrome on Windows 10. Thought you'd want to know...

Great review! Your thoughs are my ones. The Bad low light quality and the high crop makes the image look horrible. Cause by that i returned my one. Im also disappointed by the hdmi-outout delay. They didn't improve it since the hero 7. It's faster wit turning off the stabilization, but it's still not even close to real time and useless for me.

Hi Parker. Nice to see you back in frame on your own channel 😅 you've been missed. Quick question for you. In the last minutes of this video, I saw 3 guys wearing lav mic's. Were all 3 mic's captured by the same GoPro? And if yes, how did you do that?
