I tried the video time lapse feature of the GoPro 4 Silver. For starters I used the 0.5 second increment to give me more frames to work with if needed. The video was taken from Handlery Hotel located in the Union Square area San Francisco. Oddly enough the I shot this from the 6th floor, room “666”.
It took me awhile to figure out how to get the video play at a “faster” rate. I used GoPro Studio to produce the raw video and Final Cut X to add music by Yuck Nasty and lower 3rd credits.
I took a photograph using my iPhone 6 Plus of my still new to me Boxster paint job. Next weekend I’m taking it in to have the “cut and polish” work done to remove the swirls and dust particles that were embedded during the clear coat process.
I’ve had some disappointing moments with Beater Boxster’s paint job project. One of the high items of my “piss me off, really?” moments was scraping the damn overspray off my windshield and side windows. It was so bad I could barely see through it when I was driving towards the sun.
I tried the WD-40, paint thinner, cleaner route and none of that stuff really made a difference. I finally got a tip from a YouTube video that showed a guy removing overspray from glass using a wide razor blade. It turns out I had one of these in my tool box so I was in luck and could try it out right away. It took a while but I got the overspray off.
All the plastic and masking protection was a precaution when I was handling the different chemicals that didn’t even work.
I took the DJI up to 400 feet above ground level and had the GoPro 4 Silver set to 2 seconds intervals between each shot. Even though the screen blanks out every two seconds I’m still able to compose my frame and composition.
The next time I do night time photos I want to get closer to the downtown district area, possibly shoot some video too rather just concentrating on stills.
Every so often my wifey buys lumpia at her school, $20 for 70 pieces! This is the Shanghai style so they are not the larger rolls we are accustomed to but if you eat enough of these suckers it’s all good!
I took this photograph using my GoPro 4 Silver attached to my multi-rotor. I used the time lapsed mode at 0.5 second interval. The composition was all guessing since I don’t have FPV capabilities. If you look closely you can see at the entrance area of the cul’ de sac below.
I’m installing the Zenuse H3-3D gimbal for my GoPro 4 Silver. Part of the installation required installing a PCB inside of the Phantom II, fairly painless process. As it turns out, the circuit board had already been installed and did not require the upgrade.
