Thes= e two examples show exactly the horrible rolling shutter wobble that David = mention. You will have a horrible time stabilizing and tracking some of the= se, and the extreme distortion of the GoPro optic makes it a even more un-f= un.

AE has a Rolling Shutter Repair effect, but i don't= think it can compensate for these cases, only the usual pan shear distorti= on. Or? i havnt tried it myself on any of such footage actually, so i would= love to be proven wrong about this.
