Our friends at FunPlacesToFly.com just posted this video, which shows a comparison between the Field of View Settings of Wide versus Linear on GoPro Session 5 cameras.
“We mounted two cameras, side-by-side on the strut of our Cessna,” says Smitty Smith, the force behind FunPlacesToFly.com, “one set with a field of view of Wide and the other set to Linear.”
It appears in your “Goodbye to fisheye” video that the wide field view has better color depth than the linear view??
