    New to the YI Cam, got a 23L

    Ciao Lorenzo, It was just a doubt considering the image sensor size as in the item description: good that it is already tested and it is ok. Thank you for posting some stills, if possible in front of the sun: I am testing the cam to shoot pano pictures, not sure to buy a rig of six yet. Giuseppe

    New to the YI Cam, got a 23L

    I am also interested in changing the original lens with one with IR filter to take still images for pano pictures: the original lens has flares when shooting in front of the sun. Lorenzo88 : I see your replacement lens is for gopro hero2 which has a 1/2.5 image sensor size and a (D?)FOV of 170...

    Xiaomi Yi - Genlock Multiple Cameras

    @Andy_S , Thank you for all your contributions! If I undesrtand correctly using ntpd we synchronize the internal clocks of the cams and then we send a command to the cams to be executed at the same time. That is very useful to start synchronized video recording and (picture) time lapse. When...

    Yi Plus - A mod for switching capture and recording modes

    I would like to take multiple shots nanually. Among other reasons (writing time on sd card etc.) I presume, not sure, that beep shutter sound and shutter led blinking may slow down the pace. Is there any ways to exclude beep shutter sound and shutter led blinking when shooting stills?

    Xiaomi Yi - Genlock Multiple Cameras

    Hi Jreinjr, thank you for info about Andy_S project: it would be great, thanks in advance! That is fine for videos but what about single pictures taken randomly? We send a command, let's say, via wifi to shoot at a specific time, at each shot? I have found this for Canon cameras...

    Xiaomi Yi - Genlock Multiple Cameras

    Exactly! The pronlem may be even bigger for those, like me, interested in pano pictures with fast moving objects. What we need is a sync way with accuracy of few (less than 10) milliseconds. Following the forum I see that is hard to achieve via wifi. Perhaps by wired connection?

    Xiaomi Yi + RIG + RC ....how to take pictures?

    In 4:3 ratio H(orizontal)fov is 120 degrees (may be a bit more), V(ertical)fov is 90 degrees (may be a bit more): six cams set as in your rig should be enough to take the whole sphere. Perhaps this may give you some hints: http://www.airpano.com/Articles-AirPano.php?article=101606

    Xiaomi Yi - Genlock Multiple Cameras

    Many thanks in advance for sharing any achievements you get! One big problem I see is to synchronize the shutters: have you any ideas about the average sync error we may expect via Usb otg cable?

    XYC: Xiaomi Yi Configurator

    In this thread AlexZ, answering to my request about a command via telnet to shoot a photo, wrote (I can not find the answer here anymore): "I've found it ) If you want to take a picture via telnet do following: Open connection to 192.168.42.1:7878 and send {"msg_id":769,"token":1}. That's all...

    PonerineS [debug 0.1.4] the android apk for XiaoYi Sports Camera

    If I understand correctly Ponerine may, hopefully, control multiple cams. For videos: it is then possible to synchronize them via audio or via buzzer_ring. For panoramic pictures with moving objects: any chance by (improved) Ponerine, or other ways, to synchronize multiple cams to shoot at...

    PonerineS [debug 0.1.4] the android apk for XiaoYi Sports Camera

    How did you synchronize the cams in that video? Do you know what is the average delay in synchronization?

    Z23L revision problems

    Thank you: it seems there are no problem in front of sunlight with this lens but it is not specified the version of Yi. I ordered similar lens by gearbest and aliexpress. I will test on my YI as soon as I receive. Here https://cloud.mail.ru/public/ChD2/TjS39gF66 there is a video comparison...

    Z23L revision problems

    Thank you. The outcomes are consistent with my sample pictures. I suspect that versions without L would give pictures without the red "disk" but I have no example of the same scene (i.e. in front of the sunlight) taken with two Yis, one with L and one without L. It would be much appreciated if...

    Z23L revision problems

    The same as mine. I think it has a ir filter but "lighter" than versions without L in the serial number. I think the main difference is when shooting in front of the sun or with the sunlight coming from the front side with a narrow angle. If you could take some pictures in this way and share it...

    Xiaomi Yi - Genlock Multiple Cameras

    Regarding multiple cam rig simultaneous shoot for 360 video or pictures which, I see, is of some interest for others here in the forum: what we need is "something" which makes shoot multiple cams at the same time, ie. with a delay which may vary according to specific needs but it is in the...

    Difference between Z22 and Z22L

    Filters, I doubt, lenses replacement, maybe. But first of all we should compare images from L versions (no ir filter) and from non L versions (ir filter), of course of the same scene and in different conditions: the incidence of sunlight I think is what mainly marks the difference from ir or non...
