is my gopro borken? I can see my shot on the LCD screen on both front and back but when i upload my footage and review it all my footage is at a weird dutch angle. my image looks good but is shooting something else than what is being showed. What is really weird is the angle will auto adjust (since i shoot off a tripod) during the shot but that wont display on my LCD screen. for reference i have used gopro since the company came about but their new tech is boarderline useless. For reference i have my orientation locked and that max boost thing shut off. so is my gopro broken or is it so user friendly i no longer can control my image and have a useless camera?
expensive but obviously high quality

This would be a 5 star rating but the battery life is poor. Be prepared to carry multiple batteries and invest in the charging station. The options are great. The video quality is amazing and it stabilizes the image extremely well. I bought it so I had a dashcam option that I could also take with me once I reach my destination. It fits that bill nicely. Be prepared to turn your $400 camera into a $6-700 purchase with accessories and add-ons.
Do not use the Media Mod is you want GPS info.

The Media Mod device that is inclued blocks your GPS antenna! I bought the GoPro HERO11 Black Creator Edition Bundle and could not figure out why all of my videos had no GPS info. It would be in complete wide open space outside and still no GPS. I worked with GoPro's support for weeks (which was horrible, they would suggest something then immediately close the case before I could confirm if it fixed it...which none did. I then had to re-open the case each time until I just gave up). I then found a hardly viewed video where a guy showed then the cold shoe mount in the Media mod is made of metal and blocks the GPS signal. He showed drilling a 10mm hole in the shoe mount. But I have since stopped using the media mod and now my GPS info is there in my videos and working much better. So if you need a GPS signal stay away from the media mod (or try the hole drilling)
Great little camera

The Hero11 is such a cool little gadget, and the Volta grip is essential for extending battery life on those longer shots, especially star trails! So many neat tools at your disposal and you don't need any prior experience to make great videos.
Really cool

I've waited to get the Hero 11 because of the various reviews. I go rafting a lot and also do real estate photography. Even though I have a decent drone for aerial photos and video shots, I also have the need for video walk throughs. I also thought it would be good while traveling in Europe this Fall. I got it and tried it out on a snow snowmobiling trip. I mounted it to the windshield (because I didn't have the helmet mount) and it worked great..... the motion stabilizer is incredible! The view, color and smooth action video is great. I give it only 4 stars for now because I've only used it once, and the unit doesn't come with any usage instructions other than how to charge and install the battery. Oh, I did buy extra battery's (as a photographer I always have backup). Also, the app for it won't install on my S7 because it's antiquated, so I don't know how the instant file upload to the cloud works. After I get a new phone and use the Hero 11 more, I'll revise this review.
First try of GoPro and we love it

The GoPro camera has been the standard of action shooting and thousands of extreme people trust this device to shoot their exploits.
However, the company understands that in addition to professionals, there are also ordinary users who just want to have a reliable action camera. It should shoot high-quality videos, it can be attached anywhere, it is small, strong and easy to use.
This is exactly what the new, eleventh version of GoPro turned out to be. And although outwardly it does not differ much from the previous, the main changes are hidden under the plastic case: the camera has acquired a larger sensor for better resolution, an improved level of video stabilization and the widest viewing angles
There has never been such a fancy, but at the same time easy-to-use action camera in the world.
GoPro 11 Bricked after 2 months

Out of nowhere one of my new GoPro 11's will not power on. I've followed all GoPro protocol for restarting but I get nothing. I even replaced the battery with a fully charged battery and still no power. I love B&H and I've happily owned many GoPro cameras but I've never encountered a total failure like this. The B&H return policy is only good for 30 days which now seems a few months too short. No humans at GoPro have responded yet. I'm hoping they will make this right.

This is an awesome action camera. This is a better version than the last. This allows you to shoot in both regular format & shorts format (vertical). The audio is good & the camera shoots better than ever.
