Gimlet Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 I've just got a selfie stick to try and improve my camera angles and point of view.This is the first attempt and I'm not very happy with it so I'm' off to try again and will add the next version later.

EDL Posted July 20, 2015 Share Posted July 20, 2015 I bought a selfie stick for the same reason! I haven't tried mine out yet though. How are you doing the second camera? Is something mounted to the wheel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gimlet Posted July 20, 2015 Author Share Posted July 20, 2015 It's just my phone doing picture in picture which unfortunately makes the inset window into a mirror image instead of actual view.I then made the mistake of allowing the youtube software to take out the shake which has the effect of wobbling the inset picture all over the frame. Next one will be better I promise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gimlet Posted July 20, 2015 Author Share Posted July 20, 2015 Well here's the second attempt. I think it's an improvement, just wish I knew a way to stop the rear facing camera from giving a mirrored view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gimlet Posted July 21, 2015 Author Share Posted July 21, 2015 Still trying to get the hang of reversing I'm afraid. I'm OK for 10meters or so but having problems going long distance in reverse.Just wish the front camera on phones didn't give a mirror image, or at least allowed you to toggle between mirror and normal.

Gimlet Posted July 21, 2015 Author Share Posted July 21, 2015 It's damned frustrating! If I use just the front camera to take pictures or video the screen shows a mirror image but the pictures are saved flipped the right way around. There's even a setting to save it flipped as a mirror image or video but when I use the dual camera mode the front camera shows and saves mirrored and there seems to be no way to change it.As one of the uses Samsung promotes is to put your own face in the picture with your friends it seems stupid that your face has to be mirrored.

Just like driving a car. Forward view is normal but rear view is like looking at the rear-view mirror. As for your first video. Yeah you don't want YouTube's anti-shake feature on with this dual video mode. In fact you can still turn it back off I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alice Pattinson Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 I love to do it also while taking selfie using a Selfie Stick Pro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
