I don't think you are supposed to be filming rides or attractions in general. Think you have to go stealth.
can someone tell me what GoPro accessories are allowed in Disney? Like for example is the Float stick (Doesnt extend) allowed? Chest mount? Head mount?
Ok thank youI had a chest mount and a small handle for my GoPro. They don't care as long as it's not a selfie stick.
It's no different than anyone else taking their video camera on rides and whipping their cell phones out on thunder mountain.
Not a horrible idea, go pro makes one also now, go pro something or another ;P. I could see water parks but fail to see the fun of it at a park. Simply because you'd have to hold it above your head the whole time for the most part. Also, you'd need to find one with excellent low light abilities. Gopro in any flavor including the 360 cam pretty much fails at that. My edge 7 cell phone takes 100 percent better low light photos than go pros do. So unless you have that, most rides are out.Not GoPro, but I've toyed with the notion of getting a 180/360º cam (like the recent Rylo).
I do wish people would refrain from the cameras and cell phones on fast rides like thunder mountain... People have lost eyes when a phone has been dropped by someone on a roller coaster and it hits the poor person behind them that gets hit in the face. It is only a matter of time until it happens on one of the Disney rides and then it will be a ban on all cameras and phones on rides as the Disney lawyers will likely decide its better to ban them on all rides and not risk determining which are slow enough to be safe.I had a chest mount and a small handle for my GoPro.

Gosh imagine..... Doing exactly what Universal does for their roller coasters. No cell phones allowed at all on the ride. So you have to put them in a locker. For a fee.I do wish people would refrain from the cameras and cell phones on fast rides like thunder mountain...

thank you!!! All AWESOME ADVICE!Oh I forgot .. one important use ;P
Time lapses if you have a nice view from your hotel and a balcony. Bring a small tripod (gorilla bendy style), and wrap it around a balcony post, hit start and wander off.
Actually I thought the lockers were free on the rides you were banned from having a cellphone or camera on and only had the lockers for a fee on the rides where you needed one to protect your camera/cellphone from the ride itself but weren't at any risk of hurting someone with your camera. I think the last time I was there the only time we needed to pay for a locker was on the Jurassic park ride and Popeye ride where any non-water proof electronics is at risk of getting destroyed.Gosh imagine.....

Nope. They're all a fee. I remember being upset about Rip Ride Rock It.Actually I thought the lockers were free on the rides you were banned from having a cellphone or camera on and only had the lockers for a fee on the rides where you needed one to protect your camera/cellphone from the ride itself but weren't at any risk of hurting someone with your camera.

Must have changed some sense we were last there as I know there were several rides where the lockers were free but you only had a set amount of time to go back and get your stuff out or you would be charged a fee. Guess they decided to charge for everything.Nope. They're all a fee. I remember being upset about Rip Ride Rock It.
