Both this version and the flat 360 version look good on a 4k TV. The picture quality is similar but the GoPro version has the edge where movement nearby, such as the road below or vehicles or shops, look sharper. The flat 360 version does have the advantage of looking at passing buildings rather than the road ahead. Some of the time you are looking at what I might choose to look at. The 360 version has the lowest resolution and doesn't look so good on my TVs. However the video quality is just about acceptable on the computer and does have the advantage of being able to look in any direction
Thanks for this, we prefer this filming as we can watch it on the TV 'RU-vid' app but it doesn't look right on the 360 versions. Can view those on my phone but we usually watch them together on the TV. Great drive, one we do a lot when we stay 🙂
I couldn't watch the flat 360 yesterday as the camera direction not matching the direction of movement made me feel seasick! I had to bail out. I tend to watch these on the RU-vid app on my big TV and the GoPro version is significantly better quality when blown up to that size.
Interesting video. My wife and I are planning to come to Cyprus towards the end of July this year. Staying in the Paphos area. We will probably hire a small car and I picked up your tale of loosing the number plate and you saying that the locals were being nicer to you, is it common that locals are less tolerant to hire cars? Would you be able to recommend a hire car company by the way
Locals just don't want to be stuck behind a tourist I guess, so are less likely to let them out. It's the same the whole world over really. Regarding car hire, look in our directory: www.paphoslife.com/directory/car_hire
