My chapter of the Experimental Aircraft Association hosted retired Delta Captain Ron Alexander's 1939 DC-3 at Briscoe Field in Lawrenceville, GA this weekend. I got to fly in this beauty. This shot was taken with HDR Photo Camera. First is the original, and second is with the Enhanced filter in the app. I LOVE how the enhanced copy looks. I should note that I didn't realize that the app had hi-res processing until well after I took this shot. Hi-res processing is now on, but wasn't in the shot. :straight:

And here's a link to the video I shot of it pulling up after one of the flights.

Something that anyone who has ever shot digital video of an aircraft will notice is that the propellers are correct in the video. Most phones and digital cameras that are not expensive do not properly render a rotating propeller (or other rotating devices) correctly because of the way they capture the image. Instead of looking like they are rotating, you often see what looks like shutters - multiple horizontal lines moving down, rather than rotational motion. The Icon captures it very well. I didn't think to try adjusting the frame rate, to see if I'd get better reproduction of the rotation or not. It would be nice to be able to adjust the "shutter" speed, in order to do this.

Does anyone know how to upload a video to a social network, like Facebook, with the same clarity as when you view it on the phone. Everytime I upload a video, the quality on Facebook looks bad. I tried uploading straight from my phone and from one drive. Will appreciate any suggestions. Thanks!

I am pretty sure any video uploads directly from the phone will be downgraded, just due to the size. If you plug your phone into your computer and just do a copy/paste from the phone to your computer then you will have the original video resolution on your computer and will have a better chance of uploading to social networks.

Not only will the phone upload a compressed version, but facebook will further compress it. The only way you're going to get the original quality is to host the video somewhere else (Photobucket, Flickr, OneDrive) and put a link to the original on facebook.

I have uploaded a video to facebook before and didn't lose quality, but it was a fairly short clip and I did it from a computer not the phone. Just going to depend on the size of the file. But you are correct Hopmedic, for the majority of video clips it would be easier to link the video. You will still have to copy and paste the video from the phone to a computer before uploading even to OneDrive as the phone will automatically compress when uploading. At least that is what it has been doing for me.

These were taken on a weekend trip to New Orleans. I have no idea what I am doing as a photographer, so these were taken with the Nokia Camera app on auto settings.

I really hope they include an HDR mode built in in the Cyan Software update plus the slow motion capture and 4k video recording, this last one makes more sense for the 1520 but oh well...
