      I don’t do football but even I know how big a deal it would be.

      I did my HNC at UWIC before it became Cardiff Met.

          DiRT 3, might need to make an account.

          Edit.

          You do need an account and it plays fine on my X220, which is a surprise! :good:  :yahoo:

              Just had a silly thought a 360 photo from the center of the weird round about in SPLOT. Oh, By the way, remember tiger bay features in the pop song, hit me with your rhythm stick. :good:

              The Magic Roundabout, as it’s known.

              If I’m up early enough next Sunday I’ll get one.

                  Like Sped said, just post it on youtube. The worst that can happen is it gets taken down.

                    As you say, sometimes it’s unavoidable. Where my brother used to live in Wimbledon there were areas of pavement marked out for parking as the roads were so narrow.

                    I agree that it’s a travesty, often completely avoidable but people are so bone idle and selfish that even legislation won’t make any difference.

                    I’ll sign it in hope though.

                          If anyone gets this one I’ll be truly impressed.

                            Must admit I had to Google pretty much all of them. Seeing as no one else has posted one recently, here’s one:- ‘Top of the line in utility sports, Unexplained fires are a matter for the courts!’ It’s stretching things a bit but it’s a song.

                                I used the mount that came with my Drift Stealth 2 helmet camera, it uses the same 1/4″ tripod thread.

                                    What about a picky of Tiger bay. Does make you wonder about file size with these new cameras, especially if they like have a full size sensor and shoot in RAW.

                                    I can do that, next time I’m down there. Don’t go that way often but the wetlands are a prime candidate for the camera.

                                        Now I’ve had more time to play with the 360 Cam (and software) I’m even more impressed. It’s not perfect but for the money it’s unbeatable.

                                        To me it seems to be well built, yest it’s plastic, apart from the standard 1/4″ tripod attachment, but unless you’re a total klutz or really unlucky I can’t see there being any issues with build quality.

                                        I got a case for it from Amazon but I didn’t pay full attention to the photos so missed the fact that’s it’s huge, so it’s going back. I also got a mini tripod for it, which is really good, grips things really securely.

                                        Transferring files from it over WiFi is slow. This is necessary with the video files as they are stitched together in the camera, if you don’t have editing software which can deal with 360 videos properly they come out as flat videos if you copy them of the SD. With the photos you can just copy them off the SD card, Google photos recognizes them as 360 photos.

                                        The LG 360 Cam viewer for PC is OK but dog slow for viewing videos. The free Go Pro VR Player is much better.

                                        I’ve also found a very handy app, that lets you do basic editing and also make Little Planet videos for Instagram and the like. Instagram doesn’t do 360 videos or photos yet so this is the next best option for it. An example is here.

                                        The WiFi control of the camera is generally very good, it prefers my G5 to my Z2, for some reason the signal isn’t always strong enough to get a live preview on the Z2, the actual controls work fine though. Of course physical obstructions affect the signal range, in open ground I had a preview about 30m away on my G5. The LG Cam manager app won’t see any 360 media unless they are in the location the app stores them in, not sure about the Theta one yet, I’ll test it later.

                                        I think that’s about it for now, any more info needed let me know.  :good:

                                          Thanks both.

                                          BL, I’ll do an update tomorrow, with luck. If not soon.

                                            Did a quick run on the fat bike with the 360 Cam on my crash hat, it was early morning, just after sunrise. I’m happy with the result as the light was affected due to the bushes.

                                            I’d never do the run full pelt at ‘normal’ times, there might be people about.

                                            Anyway, OFC YouTube has mullered the footage a lot (might try Vimeo soon) but I’d appreciate feedback regarding how it plays on your devices.
