Taken at the beach, hand held.

Nice footage, apart from the zoomed part. That was very pixelated

Thanks Peter, I wanted to see what the picture quality was like in light of the fuzzy focus fuss.

There is too much focus on that if you ask me

Congrats on getting the OA3 Droffarc.    Very nice first footage.

Oh Fo cus.
I think, for an ACTION cam, the focus is quite ok, but not what I would use my pocket 2 for.
I primarily want to use it for when I ride my motorcycle, car and go hiking/ swimming for longer distances than the battery life of the Pocket 2

Thanks DownTown, now I dont need to worry about damaging my gimbal.

You're very welcome Droffarc.    No gimbal to damage is a good thing.  I'm going to do a little diving this weekend and will try out my grandson's GoPro 11.

Yes indeed.

That beach should be more popular than that.

Enjoy!

Not a spectacular dive as I'm just going to inspect the bottom of my boat and clean off any marine life that has decided to take on unauthorized residence there.  Might get in an open ocean dive on Sunday though.

People hereabouts need to work during the week and also on a windy day not too plea sand

We are currently in to hot windy season till February - very little rain and NO SNOW, unless you send us some

Should make for interesting footage - "Eviction notice given to crusty Barnacle family" Visuals at eight!

Looks smooth enough. The cropped bit wasn't great.

Agreed on that

Agreed on that

Are you happy with it though?

It is adequate. I will probably do a vidoeo on my thoughts

Adequate.  Not a rave review then
I'll wait for the video

No snow here yet either,    so far there's been no predictions either for it.

  Hopefully, not too many new residents.

Will be interesting to see your thoughts on the OA3.  I've seen so many mixed reviews.  Got tired of seeing and reading about the focus issues.
