Railfan Technology > New Replacement Video CameraDate: 08/05/16 11:13 New Replacement Video Camera Author: CountryBoy I have a GO PRO video camera that I like pretty well, that said I really don't like the fisheye perspective it gives. I'd like to find something comparable in a narrower perspective in the 2-4 hundred dollar range
Thanks CB Date: 08/05/16 15:16 Re: New Replacement Video Camera Author: Auburn_Ed Is it a 3 or 4? If so, there are several replacement lenses available, normal, and telephoto. Look online. That said, I have no knowledge of the quality of these lenses.

Adobe Premiere Pro CC has a filter that you can apply to the GoPro video footage that takes the fisheye perspective right out. Check your video editing software to see if there is that filter available there as well.

No zoom, hard-to access controls and fixed focus. Great for lockdowns and special applications.
For video, I'd spend the money on a Sony or Canon or JVC camcorder. Much more versatile and far easier to use.
