Has anybody purchased the new camera from BR for the BROV, if so any feedback please with images.
I would also be interested in finding out about your type of topside laptops you are using and if anybody has found if the QGC software works better on OSX or Windows 10.
Thanks
Julian
Hi Julian,
Quite a few people have upgraded so far and we’ve had good feedback. Here are a few threads on that:
I have tried the new camera in some really dark murky water. Turning on the lights was just like driving into a blizzard…o wiz at all. Turning off the lights and the camaera is just amazing. No way a diver would see as good as this camera does. I will post some images later showing how good it worked for me
I have installed a Low Light camera as well as the Pi color camera so I am streaming both videos to the surface. I am very pleased with the Low light camera. It has a good picture but it works in conditions long after the color Pi camera has lost its picture due to lack of light. Much better than I expected, just as good as some models that run into thousands of dollars. Nice product BR.
There are also some directly comparison shots in our new product video that are really illustrative of the differences. You can see that here:
