I became very close to quitting making RU-vid videos last week when my GoPro broke. To be fair it has been playing up for weeks. I pooled together all my sources of income over the last few months from Patreon, Paypal, Ko-Fi, RU-vid payments, and some money from this month's pension to purchase a new GoPro. Unfortunately, the expense did not stop there and I ended up buying a new phone also.

That was bad news Trev, really sorry to hear that. Modern camera tech is amazing, but most of it seems designed to last a few years at most.

Hey Trev, I use GoPro and pay that subscription … it’s well worth it as you get discount off all mounts plus it covered against faults or loss - I’ve already had a replacement, plus they knock £100 off any new GoPro if you trade in an old one (any age) I’m glad you are continuing with the videos 😃
@TrevsTravelsByNarrowboat
@TrevsTravelsByNarrowboat 2 месяца назад
I looked at getting the subscription, but I just could not add that extra cost at the moment. This has already left me broke.

Hi Trev sorry to hear that you have had to spend that amount of money to enable you to carry on making your videos.. Unfortunately people have not got the funds to be able to help with this. Especially with the hike in the costs of living. Anyway I will still ask as as many people as possible to subscribe to your channel..I don't think people know that's it free to do this.. It would be a sad day if you were unable to carry on making your interesting and informative videos mate. As a x narrow boater I know just how people struggle to make ends meet... unfortunately people think that narrow boaters have no bills to pay .??? If only they knew.. Jud how hard it is for canal people to pay Thier bills .?? Anyway Trev keep yourself safe and well mate. I have watched the channel from Day one and will continue to do so..

Hi Wayne, I was not particularly asking for money, I was more to the point trying to show people how much it costs to produce RU-vid videos, with a very small reward from RU-vid through ads.

Thats so nice, your really set up now. Itll be like watching a whole new channel. I dont know anything about cameras but im look8ng foreward to watching your show on the new setup. The mic should be a gamechanger too. Fingers crossed😊
@TrevsTravelsByNarrowboat
@TrevsTravelsByNarrowboat 2 месяца назад
The only problem I have now found is that I now need to buy an adaptor frame that goes around the camera to use the mic. More expense, but I will get it as soon as I am near an Amazon pickup point again
@ds-qg6et
@ds-qg6et 2 месяца назад
Hey trev, I noticed the mic kit comes with a tps adapter, well if you have to use that, be carefully, my boy had the tip of one break off in his phone, no rough handling either. I finally found a phone repairman that removed it without opening the phone. Cost me 30$ us. I bought the adapter on amazon.
@TrevsTravelsByNarrowboat
@TrevsTravelsByNarrowboat 2 месяца назад
@@ds-qg6et I very much doubt I will ever put it in the phone, as I prefer to use my GoPro than a phone for recording. If used on the camera the camera is normally on a tripod, so it is not being pulled around. Saying all that, thank you for the warning.
@ds-qg6et
@ds-qg6et 2 месяца назад
Yea, that's good, his broke just pulling it straight out, not pulling it around or bumping it in any way just to be clear. Perhaps a one off a fluke, it broke in normal use. My bad luck perhaps, once bitten, twice shy as they say.
@ds-qg6et
@ds-qg6et 2 месяца назад
Sorry my mistake, I questioned my boy again and he says now he'd been wiggling it around trying to get a better connection and was using it propped on his chest in a slightly bent fashion. Mostly his fault. User error and product quality both came into play I suspect.

Keep it going. U have bought good equipment I went for the cheaper AKASO and the built in mic failed so now not useable. Just using phone camera now. Be good to see how u get on with your go pro. It always seems everything goes wrong at the same time. Best wishes
@TrevsTravelsByNarrowboat
@TrevsTravelsByNarrowboat 2 месяца назад
Thanks, will do! I thought when I bought the GoPro 12 I could plug an external mic straight into it, but no you cannot you need an adaptor that replaces the battery cover and clips around the camera. The GoPro adaptor is nearly £80.00 but I see there is one by Neewer for £20.00 so I will order that one when I am once again near an Amazon or E-Bay pickup point

@@TrevsTravelsByNarrowboat I bought very similar looking mics. Just different Chinese name. £39. Mine are distorted like hell. So hoping yours are better. I then treated myself to a wired Rode mic at £51 which is just amazing. Not sure what to do with the other mics tho lol. Be good to see and hear yours all working in a vlog. Best wishes.
