Just got a GoPro for xmas, yet to try it out. Whats the best setting for say (a)video from the board & (b) from the kite
If you have the Original GoPro HD Hero, set it at r4. That will give you the tallest viewing angle. I believe that's what Corey used from what I can tell...r4 will be in 720p, not 1080p. If you set it in r3 or r5, you will probably only see half of your body if it is being shot from the kite for example.
If you have the new GoPro HD Hero 2, you want to set it to the 960 resolution. You can then decide whether you want it shot at 48fps or 30fps. Select 48fps if you want to be able to later edit the film and slow down the video without it getting too choppy.
