GoPro Hero 8 Test// No Gimbal vs Gimbal MTB

#mtb #goprohero8 #mountainbiking

I have finally picked up a GoPro Hero 8 Black and I have been thoroughly impressed by the image stabilization. I feel like using only the GoPro Hero 8 on a chest mount provides a better perspective of the trail on steeper terrain. In saying that I have used a Feiyu Tech Gimbal for most of the videos with the GoPro Hero 4. Ultimately I was curious to see the footage of the GoPro Hero 8 without a gimbal vs with a gimbal.

Please leave a comment below and let me know what footage you like better or if you like both and why you like it. I am trying to decide if I should continue to use the gimbal or not. Not having the gimbal makes the setup considerably lighter and less bulky.
