Second attempt with Gopro

[Arbtech Tree Services]

Nothing special to watch, it's a Sycamore pollard which we stuck on Youtube more for potential customers than anything else. Just to show that we don't have to damage their property when working on their trees and we tidy up afterwards!

 

Still experimenting with the software. Saw volume needs reducing, need to speed up the last section and start using some different viewing angles - would love a drone!!

 

Just realised that comments had not been enabled on the first vid so now sorted.

Great video, mate. I've started using a Gopro too, though I only have the first model. Which one was that made with?

 

I've found the sound on mine to be awful. Wind affects it badly in trees, as does the waterproof shroud. I'm now using my Samsung s4 for sound, and splicing the sound and video together later.

 

As for different angles, a camera set up on a tripod gives a good view too and it doesn't take your groundie away from the tree work.

It's the entry level one, just as good. The only thing that lets it down is the time lapse is 0.5 secs non adjustable.

It came with two back covers, one is waterproof and muffles the sound and the other has slots which let the sound/ rain/ woodchip in!

The last part of the vid we just placed it on the ground but I do have a tripod mount made up, one which i'll be able to wrap around branches in the tree too.

Thanks for watching.

 

Regards,
