Since its debut in 2004, millions of aspiring movie directors have posted billions of hours of video footage, using their rugged, inexpensive, compact and high-quality GoPro cameras.
GoPro cameras today provide a high-definition, wide-angle (170 degree) fish-eyed view of the world. Combining two or more GoPros allow a panoramic, 360-degree view or the production of 3D videos.
So, what are the top user categories for the GoPro?
The Thrillseeker
Thrillseekers of all shapes and sizes have taken to the skies, slopes, oceans, mountains, high-rise buildings and dirt tracks, providing the rest of us with absolutely breathtaking views of their feats of daring.
With a helmet or board-mounted GoPro camera, get a bird’s-eye view of getting deep in the barrel of a huge wave, as it covers you whole.
Feel the chill of the powder as you hit the moguls on a double black diamond.
Base jumpers, mountain climbers and high-rise building scalers provide vertigo-inducing pictures that wobble even the steadiest of knees.
You don’t need to be an extreme athlete to make an extreme video. Spend an ordinary day of swimming in North Queensland with friends and your GoPro. Then, condense hours of video into a magnificent collage.
The Dashboard Cam
Less interested in outdoor or adventure sports? You can still put your GoPro to good use. Many people use a GoPro camera on the dashboard of their cars.
From this, GoPros old and new have documented poor driving, traffic stops, and traffic accidents. (No one was hurt in that video, but there are much worse cases).
Using a GoPro as a dashboard camera also enabled people to film a massive meteor as it fell to earth. In 2013, a spectacular flaming meteorite fell over the Ural mountains in western Russia.
Because dashcams are practically ubiquitous in Russia, many people filmed this amazing phenomenon.
Time Lapse Photography
Filming an unannounced meteorite is one thing, but filming known meteor showers with your GoPro is quite another.
With the time-lapse feature built into the camera, GoPros capture absolutely stunning night sky images. People have captured meteor showers, the Northern lights and the Milky Way.
Capturing Severe Weather Phenomena
In addition to using your GoPro to capture majestic nocturnal images or videos, you can also use a GoPro to capture severe weather phenomena.
Time-lapse videos of thunderstorms, lightning strikes, and even blizzards can produce some fascinating footage. Set your GoPro up prior to a storm, take footage until the storm passes or the battery dies.
Due to its rugged construction, severe weather won’t hurt it. Here’s a tutorial on how to capture lightning strikes with your GoPro.
Last, but certainly not least, your GoPro has a lot of utility around the house. Want a pet’s eye view of what your dog does during the day?
You can attach your GoPro to Fido’s collar and have him record what he does all day while you’re at work! Note, cats will probably not respond to this as well as dogs do.
There is practically no limit to what you can do with your GoPro. These cameras have truly been a benefit to extreme athletes, stargazers, drivers, pet owners and more.
