As a group of German and Switzer furs we visited Europapark last saturday. I so happened to have a GoPro that I wanted to test.
So I took along me to play around with and recorded most of the rides. The sound of the GoPro is quite bad and it got terribly noisy after sunset (Wodan). I also found that motion tracking doesn’t help much with the remaining shaking. Leaving the shaking however helps to convey the actual speed.
Eurostar had to be cut short as that ride is simply in complete darkness and the ill decoupled microphone doesn’t convey the ride at all.
In River Raftig I was expected more action and splashing. Recording in 50fps to allow for some limited slow motion (No need to sacrifice resolution to get 120fps) proved unnecessary.
May own voice is much too loud compared to the others and very distorted when I scream.
