Hey all, I was wondering if anyone has had any experience using one of the GoPro cameras for taking pics of rooms in a house.
Here's the story: I occasionally take pics of small rooms in small houses, and it has proven significantly easier with my LG V20 phone than with my older DSLR with wide angle adapter. The quality is fine for my needs, and the 135 degree angle fits the bill nicely. I figure I could get a new phone with a better wide angle instead of a $2,500 wide angle lense for the DSLR, but don't want to be rushed into a phone purchase and want something faster for taking pics and reviewing than the adjusting manual settings and later reviewing and adjusting on computer (for a larger screen and color/contrast, cropping, compressing, etc. software) that is required for my DSLR pics.
I accidentally cracked and replaced my camera protective screen on the V20, but it's foggy (adhesive gook on the replacement) and I don't know if I will have more issues if I try to replace it with the second screen I have. I was hoping that the GoPro wide angle would work well enough for rooms with the lights on and decent sunlight from the windows, as well as have a screen big enough to get an idea of what the picture would look like in approximately 800x600 resolution quality. Good color tint, sharpness, lighting/contrast levels on the camera that automatically adjusts for this while taking pics significantly reduces the time it takes for me to adjust manual settings and review on a small DSLR screen, and later review, correct, etc. after the pic is taken.
So... anyone have experience with this or can suggest which model GoPro I should be looking at?
