The Roland CS-10EM binaural earbuds - which I believe is what was used for this video - are far from ideal in representing binaural sound. The mics are outside the ear instead of at the bottom of an ear canal, which is where they should be. Also, the mic preamp on the Hero 11 is, well, consumer. This Hero + Roland solution is portable, yes, but you get what you pay for. The audio is basically stereo, and the video is akin to smartphone video.

You seem to have missed the point about video - it should be interesting. Action cams open up possibilities for interesting shots that cannot be produced by even the best professional cameras. Congratulations on having posted the most boring video probably ever in this forum - 15 minutes of flowing water!

Relatedly, you criticize not how a video looks or sounds but criticize the equipment used as not being ideal. Nevermind the content.

Let us not equate what is not ideal for what is not good. And not mistake what is ideal for what is actually valuable. As you seem to have.
