Nice to see you putting that licence to good use, Hai. What copter did you use for this?

Nice! I love it. what Camera did you use? how did you get the sky (top)? did you use a parabolic lens? clouds are so nice on top and no stitching... really pro grade picture there!

That was just our trial shoot. First time we've worked with Pixelcase, will definitely be teaming up with them in the future.

I am going to guess RAW images exposure corrected twice in post, once for sky and once for landscape, and then mixed together and stitched into the final 360.

Nice work! Really great shot. Definitely a great camera and setup you guys have.
That's quite cool Hai. You've got a spectacularly interesting sky with that too! Well done!

Hi John, it was just shot at 24MP in JPEG on our NEX 7 in full manual mode.

Hai: I would not have thought that. Usually you either get flat colors or under exposed ground/overexposed sky when shooting landscapes straight to jpeg. And with 1080p60 it is looking like might be a very good alternative to the GH2.

Next time we will shoot RAW, this will allow the 360 to have more zoom levels.
