What did you buy today?

Threw a battery into the money pit today. Nice deal on Amazon, 68 bucks for a HRB 5000mah 6S.

I wish it was hard pack, maybe I can Frankenstein a case.

Will be interesting to see how it compares to my SMCs, at half the price.

Me too!

Nice purchase. That new 6 cameras are awesome.

I'm half tempted to sell my GoPro 4 Silver to upgrade.

I'm looking at a couple headset cams options as I want to get some content up for you guys/ladies. Not sure I want to go with gopro though.

Yeah, when I got mine, it was more than $100 difference between the two as the 7 didn't exist yet.

I don't use the gopro software at all. I copy from the micro sd to my data drive, then after moving the low-res video and thumbs to a sub folder, I import the files into PowerDirector16. It then down converts everything to a more manageable file size in a temp folder for editing. Takes a while as it's reencoding all of it to a lower res video. Then it uses that in the preview/editing process, but when you publish/build your output video, it uses the original source. The software wasn't too expensive. I bought it initially because I was using it to put onboard video in a PIP type output from my hero5 session. Then my bodies started getting destroyed from the camera being mounted, so I stopped. After using it a while, it works a lot better than WMM did, so I kept using it.

WMM was fine with 60fps 1080 video, but didn't like the 120fps 1080 which is how I have my hero5 record and it also didn't allow for PIP type output.

Great info/advice at least ! ?
