Using a GoPro & Photoscan

[MiguelVarela]

"If you're using a GoPro on a Phantom, which seems pretty common these days, keep in mind that you can mount mirrorless dslrs on them too, and get much better results."

MortarArt, I which I could do that, but where do you get a Gimbal for those cameras that fits the Phantom? Even if you find a universal Gimbal it would be a fixed one right? no in flight adjustments...

GoPro lenses are known for their clear image quality combined with a slight fisheye effect. If you don't like to distort things, especially on the sides of the image, so that more things are suitable for shooting. You can turn it off. Or use software to remove fisheye effects in later editing. Another thing I want to add is that if you want to take a more stable picture, you can use camera gimbal . It makes the picture more stable and the sound clearer.

Just a tip: You might find a lens profile for the gopro for lightroom. You can then back process the images there and give photoscan the corrected images.

This is absolutely what is not recommended. If you really have to, you can use an external tool to adjust the WB or other tonal/exposure levels. BUT adjusting the geometry before using PhotoScan/MetaShape (or any other SfM software) will give inferior results.
