I think there are better adhesive removers that could be used such as Goo-Gone, but the alcohol is easily attainable and cheap. Mine came off without any alcohol at all ie. just a bit of pressure. You'd think GoPro could have come up with a better means of attaching their LCD's- using double...

Thank-you :)

A lens swap won't remove the problem, but will minimize the effect if the new lens has a narrower FOV i.e. the same can be accomplished by changing the camera setting from Super Wide or Wide to Narrow. Using Narrow will lessen the effect.

It would require two calibrated cameras. Without getting into too much detail on: bundle adjustments and intrinsic/extrinsic calibrations, etc... all Photogrammetry is based on stereo images i.e. 2 cameras correspondences. Agisoft can also solve using only two images IF you have a very strong...

Scanner Killer by XYZ RGB.... they are the pioneers of Photogrammetry for live body scanning and their services are used on the majority of high-end Hollywood VFX films. But alas I don't think their software is commercially available any longer.

I've tried to find a correction to the purple hue on the edges too but without any luck :( That would be a great fix, otherwise it's possible to post correct that in After Effects.

Great. I'll send the camera out today and will provide you the Fedex Tracking # to the email on your PP account.

I have an extra GoPro Session camera (brand new and still in the box) for $179 USD, no tax, Fedex ground shipping included. I received this camera as a gift through work. It's just easier for me to sell it than to request a gift receipt and go through the trouble of returning it. Only PayPal...

Way to Pimp your Solo !!! That's so cool. Keep me posted on your developments- I'd love to see the collision detection/avoidance when you get something working.

That sounds amazing ! I know very little about that stuff- does it require an electronics background or can anyone successfully do this with little/no formal training ? I'm guessing you have an idea to improve some aspect of the Solo, can you say what that is ?

The technology and infrastructure doesn't exist yet... but maybe in a few years. What GoPro may or may not release early quarter 2016 is just speculation (and hype) at the moment. But I'd really like to hear more about your experience with various mods for the Solo or 3DR.

Hi Pyrate, Again I'll disagree only because the Hero form has never changed and there's an entire industry that support the current design... even the knock-off's use the same footprint. Changing the design also means everyone supporting a Hero camera will need to re-tool to accommodate that...

You'll likely see a Hero 4+ next year with some minor improvements based on their history. Even if they did- it will be years before the software and infrastructure catches up to 8K... We're only now just seeing 4K TV's in homes and have you ever tried editing 4K footage ? It requires some very...

I agree- the GP4's are way to pricey and they really need to drop their pricing to make it more accessible before they lose a huge market opportunity. But the video resolutions and quality on the Hero4 is insane at 4K with a low distortion high MegaPixel lens.... I've shot footage of houses...
