Join Richard Harrington for an in-depth discussion in this video Working with microSD cards, part of Learning to Shoot with the GoPro HERO 4 and Session 4.
- So you want to get data off the GoPro.…And, if you don't want to remove the card, you could…just take a USB cable and attach it directly to the camera.…Remember, the port should be visible here on the side.…Line up with the appropriate port, and simply insert.…The challenge with this, though, when we connect…to the computer: while it will mount, this is only…a USB 2 connection, which means that the transfer rate…is significantly slower.…If you're just going to be importing a couple of stills,…like I have here, that's just fine.…
You'll see that those stills showed up, as did…some of the video files here with Apple Photos,…and I was able to find that material.…This means that I can select the clips that I want…and transfer them in.…If you're only doing a few images, no big deal.…But, over time, if you're got a lot of data to transfer,…that means a significantly longer transfer time.…More transfer time means less billable work…or less time shooting,…and more time waiting for the footage to get off the card.…
