Hello, today I'm going to be looking at more stuff with this, the HERO4 Session Camera.
Hello, I'm Martin Dorey and you are watching AdoramaTV. Today, I'm going to be talking
about highlight tagging, using the new GoPro HERO4 Session camera. Now, highlight
tagging is a useful little feature that will enable you to tag moments in your shots.
Now, why bother? OK, highlight tagging is useful because it will enable you to
find the best moments of your footage quickly and easily when you edit with
the GoPro software. Now, it'll also be extremely useful if you're handing over
your footage to someone else to edit because they can see the tags and they
can go straight to them, so they will know where the best moments are and that
means you won't lose them.
OK, so here I am. Middle aged man in lycra, ready to set off into the woods to
demonstrate tagging on this Session4 and I've also got a HERO3 on my chesty so that I
can get some shots of just how easy it is to tag as I go, and all I can say is
the things I go through for you guys.
When you use your GoPro, the likelihood is that you'll capture lot of stuff that isn't, well, how can I put
it, quite as exciting as it could be.
Say you're cycling on a downhill there will be moments we're talking about long
periods where nothing much happens . It's the same as surfing if you're sitting out
the back waiting for a wave, a wave might not come for ages but the camera's still
running so you're going to have to edit but of course, when you try to capture action,
you need to capture all the action and you need to make sure the camera is on
at all times, so that when the good stuff happens you are right there capturing it.
That's why tagging is really useful, because it will enable you to mark those
moments, find them easily so you don't have to remember. So, how do you do it? Now,
this is the science bit, except of course it couldn't be easier. When your camera is
running you hit the Settings button. That's it.
And on the Session 4 Camera that means hitting this little button at the back. So,
you're going along on your bike, something happens, you
hit the button, the film is marked. You'll be able to find it easily later.
We've been out and about on our bikes and we've got some lovely footage and we've tagged a
few moments. To find them, all we have to do is load up that footage to the GoPro
software and hey presto, there are your tags.
You can also tag your shots when you use the GoPro app. As usual, pair up your
camera with the app, hit record and then when something good happens, press the
tag button. Hey presto, your film is tagged.Right, well I say never work with
children or animals and I've got my friend Bob here. You may remember him from an earlier
episode. Now, what we're going to do is we're going to put the Session 4 on his Dog Cam
Harness, which means that I'll be able to use the app to track in through the forest and
hopefully tag some of his best bits.
So we're on wifi control. What I can now do now is get into the app.
The camera turns on, gives me the preview. Now, we've got a great shot of Bob there. What I'm going to do,
start recording. Now, you can see the little tag button there, so if I send Bob off.
Off you go then! Off you go. Come on then!
So, as Bob goes off exploring I am recording. All I have to do is hit tag
and we'll be able to find his finest moments. Bob, this way!
