    Concave Photo Appearance

    Supposedly there will be an attachment for the camera to make lens equiv to about 40mm, to get away from the dreadful 'fisheye' look, but for now .... The only manner to fix this is via software to do 'lens correction' on the 'raw' still photo (might be doable for jpegs - don't know - I am a...

    Vision or Standard?

    I am on the fence too about the vision. I do not think its video is actually good enough, but I may be wrong, I have seen ok video but jittery/jelly video as well. The 'fisheye' lens covers over lots of 'evils' and I would want a better video image than even the GoPro3 black! I want a less...
