Re: Videoing STUFF

I've played with lots of cheap action cameras (£50 sort of thing), none of which have been stellar. Just about OK in ideal conditions is the best I've achieved (all bike-mounted). Then I saw some GoPro 7 footage on a forum, where the GoPro was bike-mounted too, and it was like chalk and cheese so I...
