“Using this in an Allsky setup with a Pi 4. Some instructions would have been nice or at least something on the website but found a YT video to help with this. Order arrived quickly and hopefully some clear skies to really try out my new kit.”
“Works well, maybe exceeding expectations. It's part of a camera based weather station, the videos captures are used to estimate upper air wind speed, bird tracks and cloud type (still working on that one). Other reviews have mentioned this, focusing requires some patience, I found that locking the lens in position for the last small adjustments saved some frustration. The image shows the lens ability to capture high quality videos.”
“Lens fits well on the GS camera when you unscrew the adapter that's included with the GS adapter. Took a little getting used to focusing the lens but very good image obtained.”
“Was not sure how this 6mm lens would perform with the RPI hq camera for meteor detection.
Having a 63 degree view of the night sky compared to another meteor camera giving 120 degrees,i was very surprised with the results in the morning.
It was better than i expected.
Could see more stars and even more meteors,a couple of fireballs which were so fast .
The timelapse video had to be slowed to see these .
Overall totally surprised how these RPI hq camera and this lens performed very well.
Highly recommended .”
