Why do a lot of peoples GP footage not look as good (Quality rather content) as the stuff on GP website ?.
Can be down to hosting I think. On a free Vimeo account for example, you’re allowed 500mb upload per week. If you make a video above that threshold, then you have to compress the hell out of it in order to be able to upload and them to host it.
The exception to this comes when you start paying for hosting, then, you can get much better quality videos online.
The videos directly on the Gopro site are amazing and show just what the camera is capable of. If you watch the Youtube version of it then the quality is not quite so good I thought but I guess they have the money to pay for swanky hosting quality innit…
Despite the compression, I always feel Vimeo is just the better host, compared to say Youtube and most definitely Facebook who make everything look like an early 90’s mobile phone video… 😯
