I'd say the camera definition is actually not quite as good as the Gopro when played on a 42" tv, however it is alittle steadier perhaps. Overall I'd stick with the more manageable Gopro. What a lovely vessel, my sort of boat.
Great review as always Nick.
In terms of the camera setup – if I'm brutally honest I don't think I'd have noticed if you hadn't mentioned it (given that I'm watching YouTube on a laptop (and given your previous vids are excellent anyway)). Yes after reading some comments I do see differences in perspective, depth of field, contrast, colour definition etc.
I've been doing (self-taught) photography for my wife's online shop for years, I've studied a lot and as a non-professional get good results, BUT the one thing I noticed is; when I stepped up to an expensive 'professional quality' setup it did not give me the immediate 'wow-factor' or step up in quality that I expected! Rather I had to work FAR harder to achieve the improved quality the more expensive equipment was capable of. I guess that's why professionals are professionals! Things like go-pros are very forgiving with all the compensatory/point and shoot features, and I think professional setups can often be far less forgiving as you really need to know your stuff and do more prep. In my situation the jury's still out – I can definitely get better results from the professional setup BUT I find it a lot harder and more time consuming so often go back to the previous setup for convenience.
I don't historically see many (if any) comments complaining about the quality of your vids Nick (maybe other than flickering screens and lights) – but on the other hand, if you look at the other boating channels that employ professionals to do the filming you do actually see lots of grumbles around the fact that filming and artistic licence can often detract from the practical content.
I guess it's a fine balance, and if you've got the time to get to grips with a new setup then great, but don't bust your balls because I'm guessing that if you gave your subscribers the choice of (a) better quality video or (b) more content (see trials, meet the owners, entry level tips etc.) then I'd be pretty sure than most people would choose the later. Cheers!
That's an awful lot of boat for the money. Many thanks. Great video.
Audio isn't as clean with this camera set up FYI
That master cabin certainly has the wow factor for a boat this size. Love it. Keep up the good work Nick 👍
Get used to the new rig Nick, much more stable, perseverance pays.
8:38 Oh dear! What happened to the previous owner? :-O
Love the new cam setup vs the Ho-pro ✌️
Lose the gopros, this is a step up in quality & clarity.
Hi Nick next time u go to Ireland why not stay where I keep my horses,Tyrella House right on the beach ! ( near Downpatrick )
I much prefer the Botnia Targa moored next door to the Princess.
Would like to hear you review the Galeon 510 Sky!
I'm not a crew so I can go in the "Not a crew" cabin 😉
Love your videos
How come all the UK videos only cover (in the 40-60 ft range) Princess, Broom, and Fairlane yachts? The best value for your dollar is always a true trawler style. Oh sure, trawlers are not as slick looking, but they never seem to be "looking for space" (especially in the galley) like the Fairlane and the Princesses do. Just my opinion. I enjoy your videos. You're the best.
Love the new camera!
This looks like alot of and a big boat in general for only 650k wow.. usually for double that price for a new one you can only get a tiny little thing
8:36 what's the discount for it being haunted?
Nick, the new camera is great! It probably just take a little time to get comfortable with it.
Nick, who else was onboard? If you look closely the handle on the owner's suite moves when the door opens.
Great job Nick! Either camera is good.
Nice boat ⛵
Great quality with the new camera , hehe the boats ok too .
Don¡t give up , you'll get used to it .Then we can call you camera director
Honestly I couldn’t see the difference.
Love it. I think I'll buy one next week. Thank you Nick
You will get used to the new camera Nick and never look back. Just love the boat! Quality looks good even when a bit long in the tooth.
The sharpness from the new camera and smoothness from the gimbal was immediately noticeable. It felt particularly nice when focusing on certain details more close-up I find.
No noticeable difference to me regarding quality. Enjoy your vids, thanks!
I prefer the colour nick , it's much nicer quality.
The travelers third reich? Who owns it? Hitler jnr?
Camera is good Nick I’ve got a GoPro 10 Black I find it very good but the zoom function is very limited
hello from greenland
are there any peopel who take those "ships" out for ocean crossing? are they classifeid for crossing oceans?
will love to hear if you talk about there classifications too
Early days – but that love / hate relationship you're working through with the new camera setup – Classic !!! 🤣🤣👍👍
I like the swim platform.
You can get your chocks off, get your chocks off honey.
I’ll get me coat…
Absolutely loving the enthusiasm in these videos! Keep up the good work so that we can keep dreaming!
gday nick from the start i noticed it was mutch better quality vidio great job mate keep it up
Absolutely great reviews are a norm on aquaholic channel. Now let's get more subscribers to this channel and buy this boat for Nick and Susan. And then we can have a vlog of actual boat living and cruising life/cost/managing etc.
I do think the new camera is more crisp and the colors seem to pop. I think if you spent the money on this camera – the more you use it and get better with it – you’ll find some good pros for it as well as the old one. Either way, your vids are great. Thanks, Nick!
I do not know, but it seams that Nordhaven has a better usage of space on a 52. I know it is a different concept, but hey why not.
Did I hear "ecsetera" instead of "etcetera"? lol. Just teasing. I thought the British were supposed to be the kings of grammar. 😛 btw, love the new camera, keep it please sir!
