mgriffen Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 OK, so I was watching 2014 Tulsa Nationals on YouTube and if you go to time 3:20 on this video, you will see something very strange. How were those ppl allowed to be there taking pictures?!?! Pardon me if this has been hashed out already... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StraightUp_OG Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 (edited) They are up range. The wide angle lens makes them look much closer to the action than they are. Edited April 12, 2015 by StraightUp_OG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowdyb Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 My gopro will cover easily over 130 degree field of view. Turn to about 10 degrees off the "180" and you can easily see people up range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FTDMFR Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Yeah, they're behind the 180, but I sure as shit wouldn't be standing that close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kfd147 Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Yeah, that does look distorted. They are not as close as it shows. That target is a good 15 yards away from where they were standing. Jason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trunkmnky Posted April 12, 2015 Share Posted April 12, 2015 +1 on camera lens. Contour Roam 2 does the same Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirbinster Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 That seems ok, but the camera must really distort things as it sure looks like the gun broke the 180 shooting that pop-up target where you see the people further back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
