GoPro chest mount - feedback please on this film

Hello All,

Put the following together as 'test footage' from Spain - how do folk find it?

I keep wishing it sat higher up - the footage where I have lifted it is better till it slips back down again.

Footage is smooth as your body act like suspension as does the chest mount

Editing nothing special on this yet -

What do folk think??

Looks decent enough Al and hardly any vibration

 

Look ok al but you can get better from that mount tbh.

Raff my bro in law sets his up so you can see his fore arms. Looks ace, gives it an almost arcade view. Although think it'd be easier without the tank bag mate.

Still good though!!

 

Looks really good, nice a clear view of the road and scenery

Great choice of music btw

 

That looks good mate. The on top helmet is my fave mount though.

 

Edited to add, i did try one, but it kept slipping down the chest, pointing at the tank...

 

Looks better than i thought a chesty would, still think the on top of the lid nudges it for me. If you can.

 

I find when I watch 'lid mounted' footage the smallest turn of the head makes the footage really uncomfortable to watch - the jumping around etc. is constant.

I guess it depends on how you ride and you can maybe learn to keep your bonce still but I tend to look round far too much

 

I think it's a decent stable platform but I do prefer the helmet top mount I think.

Plus I never realised those foreign signs still meant MPH !

 

I like the chesty mount but I've not used it enough. I tend to use the gopro camera upside down and use the upside down setting to record on the camera. I'm knocking together a video at the moment of different mounts I've used on mine I'll start another thread once it's uploaded.

 

Yeah, like the footage. Crisp and clear. I'm struggling to figure out, how you attach it to your chest.
Please send pics. I'm heading to almeria on the 28 th of February, and I would love a alternative to all my previous footage.
Cheers.

 

You need a Gopro chesty harness mate, loads on evilbay and not expensive

 

The circuit may not allow you to wear it 'just in case' but the footage would be mint!

 

Looks great - top tune!

 

Looks interesting. How well does the harness fit to leathers with a hump?

 

I received mine a few days ago. Not tried it on the leathers yet, but i'd say it would fit ok as they are elasticated adjustable straps. I'll give mine a go and take some pics

 

I've also ordered this as I like the perspective of the harness but its too low with the Blade - should have it this week

has the camera 10cm higher it says which to be honest will make a big difference.

The handy thing for users of the early ones is the ability to turn it on / off etc. while riding
