I receive a couple of emails each day asking about the GoPro setup that I currently have running, so here is an update.
I use both a GoPro Hero 4 Black edition and Hero 4 Session. Both have there firmware updated every time there is a new release.

I’ve been looking at the range of GoPro accessories I currently have to assess whether or not I would buy them again. Here is a very quick run down of the “Keepers” and the “Binned”. There has been fair bit of trial and error over the last few years but I think that I have narrowed things down to kit that works and is actually worth getting.
Most accessories will work with the entire GoPro range.
The Drift TimeLapse allows you to capture photo TimeLapse sequences and is enabled to rotate 360° in 60 minutes. This system allows you to create those really clever panning TimeLapse clips within your movies.
Using a GoPro can mean that your camera angles are pretty much the same – from the helmet or from your boat. Sometimes the best shots are those that rely on the camera being on the bank, on a bridge or on a paddle. But at the same time you don’t want to be hauling a great pile of kit that takes ages to set up. In my boat a carry a small GoPro roll bag that contains a few bits and bobs for my GoPro while I am on the river. This includes spare cards, battery and a gorilla pod. Small tripods are super useful but you need a way of attaching your GoPro camera to them.
