I think you were both starved of content to video today so that is going to make voting interesting.
I thought Kermie had been out picking mushrooms, then I realised it was the nose of his poor plane.
Oh dear what a day !!
You know the rules Mr Frog, they were etched in stone by the late & great Mr Moose, to wit, “There must be AT LEAST two entries from separate videographers for the weekly GMA to be awarded.
Just waiting for Uncle G’s 4k video to load to Youtube.
Looked like a perfect flying day to me however you seemed to have a lot of No Shows down at the field today. Wonder if it had anything to do with the Green Tree Frog ?
Also, the wind muff on your camera isn’t doing much, you may (like me) need to turn the audio gain level down.
Did you fly Mr Frog & is there video from Uncle G to prove it?, otherwise I guess no GMA’s today.
Your video works well on a mobile phone as well, just move the phone (or use your finger on the screen) to pan about however you need to view it on YouTube as it won’t work on our website on the phone
My old video editor would only do H264 (unless I paid more money to unlock it) but the new one I got today works fine in H264 and H265 so I’ll try it out once I get some more footage without the raindrops.
The first vid from Saturday is 4K , the second one where I was playing with the new editor is only 1080.
Actually it’s easier to use the mouse, scroll wheel controls zoom and hold the left mouse button down and then move the mouse to pan Left Right and Up down.
Works very well, just need your camera up above the cabin roof to get a better view.
I found when editing mine if you reduce the viewing angle to less than 45degrees (to zoom in) it starts to look a bit ordinary but between 90 & 45/50 it zooms & still looks fine.
I guess a bit more playing is in order.
Nice clear video Chris however the 360 degree pan is very notchy, either needs a higher frame rated or a slower Pan.
My original Blade 350QX with the old GoPro2 was a bit like that so I used to just adjust the trim slightly & let it rotate very slowly on its own rather than using the sticks. Came out much better.
Thanks Gerald, still a lot to learn but slowly getting there. Pretty impressed with how it works and the best part is you can completely ignore it when actually sailing, all done in post production.
I may have another go at editing the footage again tomorrow now I have learned a bit more.
Another nice video Chris, the water always looks warm & inviting.
Back to our usual Flying field next week as its finally drying out & Greg is happy for us to return.
I think Insta 360 was one I looked at originally, I guess the x2 is a newer version so I’ll have another look.
Im guessing when set up correctly it negates the need for a pan camera. Be good on the yachts.
A couple of fine videos Mr Sinker, especially onboard Sinker 2. Those few extra added bits make it even more realistic.
Love the video from the 360 cam.
I have been a finger press away from buying one several times in the past but there are so many to chose from and the results from a few of them leave a lot to be desired. I guess these days its all down to what video editor you use with them.
