Me thinks x2 is perfect as is the scenery and choice of music, all of it is very well put together. Great job!
Thanks! See you again in Spring!

When does the European tour start?
Not before the Dortmund-Ems-Channel tour I plan for. Will be around 120km.


I am happy with 2x speed, too, the only disadvantage is that the cam runs this 2x Timewarp only with those action-oriented, exaggerated colours and contrasts. The natural colours when choosing it all manually, look quite different, dark fields and contrasts are not as harsh, the colur palette is softer. I could do that in normal Timelapse, yes, but then the image stabilization would not be that good, making the film more unsettled. Its a real dilemma. Its the only design detail where GoPro really has lost something, and needlessly: that the stabilised Timewarp can only be had with the intense colour profile. I can understand that they had to save processor reserves for calculating the stablised timelaps and that no manual settings thus are possible, but switching off the Manual Mode and leaving it all to Auto mode (called ProTune) would have been enough, the camera shoots almost perfect images in full auto mode. Maybe I post a 1-2 minute snippet in normal image mode, so that people can assess the difference.



So again, both videos above are done with that exaggerated colour profil, called "GoPro" for sure. Just saying so in case you wondered.
