errrr im dumb this test was using the day lens lmfao , ill do another with the correct lense my bad

LOL
I did that the first time
Had to change the title and description on my vids

In fairness the description does infer that you need to fit the daytime lens for better daytime colours, they must have had a change of heart and decided to fit the day lens by default

Having problems with getting the colours right with these cameras
Sometimes the colour is acceptable and others they have a strong orange cast
It can help to change the "Saturation" setting from Auto to manual and set a value of around 10
Unfortunately there appears to be a problem with these cameras not saving the Saturation setting, it always reverts to Auto, sometimes it does it without even turning the camera off
There's no white balance adjustments either

I am talking to the manufacturers about it and I'll keep you updated
For now though I'll stick to my original thoughts in saying that it's really a specialised camera that's just not great outside of what it's designed for
It's a bit weird flying around when it's all very orange

needed one of these today, me and Dave were trying to fly in the pitch black a few hundred meters from any light source and we couldnt see a thing!
