Not bad matey, nice old building you were taking pics of. The chimney is bent lol..jello from the vibrations no doubt.

[SamS]

Thanks Gav. Yes it's a very old building, built in the early 1800's .. I work there

But yeah the camera has a bit of Jello effect

Lovely building ;-)

cool pics sam.

is there a way to stop the bend in the camera pics?

[SamS]

Yeah, the bend is only created by the wide angle lens. You can create a more narrow field of view which in effect would decrease the 'bend', but it's harder to frame the shot correctly as the camera is almost zoomed in abit, So the wide angle actually helps to ensure that I have got the building in the frame.

I may have a play around with it a bit sometimes

How did you get it to take the picture in the air? Or are these video stills?

[SamS]

Nope, There's a remote timer on the GoPro so it took a photo every 5 secs (or 10). Basically, just hover in front the building for about 45 seconds and im pretty much guaranteed to get a half decent shot
