[@kathyalden806]

Thank you so much for taking me along on your walk, It felt like I was there. I loved hearing all the sounds from footfalls to birds and water! The clarity, textures and colors are wonderful. Bravo!

[@user-rf9kx1ed9l]

It’s so funny, you don’t know what you have been missing until you know what you have been missing! It’s stunning. Almost makes you feel like you are there.

[@irenefitzpatrick6480]

The new camera made me feel as if I was actually walking along the path. Very real! ❤❤

[@FranWhorton-of5ql]

Just had to add how unbelievably better the video is, so distinct, clean, and clear. Anyone who would complain about it is crazy!

[@daveysmith7580]

Loved The Scottish Isle in 3k, but 4k just takes it to another level. Thumbs up from me.👍👍

[@judyfrost5785]

WOW. So vibrant, sharp and detailed - even the moss on the gate. I didn’t expect the camera to make THAT MUCH DIFFERENCE, but it does!

[@LindaSlackFaelind77]

Just so very beautiful. I miss seeing Scotland. Have visited 4 times and cannot get enough. It is all working wonderfully. Good job!

[@RCY_DE]

Katie, Scott, a big step forward. I like how excited you are about it and I know this will translate into even better videos for us to watch. Onwards and upwards. All the best, R

[@beverlyethridge5084]

Everything is so clear. The close ups of the flowers are incredible.

[@gracepalmer2485]

OMG! A huge difference. I truly felt I was there with you. Everything looks so clear and crisp.

[@hazelreece4201]

The clarity is awesome, bright colours and fine detail of plants and rocks, even the sound appears clearer. Your Patreon members are right it does look as though it is almost 3D. Love it.

[@piersrake1571]

Colours, textures, light and sound - all brilliant

[@beecee4435]

Fabulous! Just fabulous! What an amazing difference. Love it ❤ The crinodendron at the orchard is stunning!

Where you live is magical. Thanks for always sharing it with us.

[@robynclarke5274]

The film is very clear, it's almost like being there. The island is a magical place. I think the settings are perfect. The sunlight is amazing.

[@user3-3204]

Truly an amazing walk with you through your beautiful island! Amazing quality.

[@jeanycheng9711]

[@raychelwhite6098]

Love the detail in the scenery, the ferns and woodland looks so clear like Im there! I loved it

[@nickywhite9079]

Brillent it's now as if you are seeing everything with your own eyes just like you are standing there with you. 100++++ percent better. So much detail, colours & sharpness top notch. Pure joy to watch 😊😊😊❤❤❤

[@Harris70-70]

Some parts of technology and the internet etc are spoiling old ways of life, but the 4 K technology is amazing . It lets you show people watching, how even more beautiful the place you live is , especially when some people are for whatever reason unable to get out and about to such places . Thanks for taking us along !

[@Parianparlay]

So well said, I second that! ✨

[@jimillsortit]

Colours look so natural, perfect filming.

[@JanisTilyard]

STUNNING 🤩 More please. I can see individual bracken fern fronds waving gently in the breeze. The sound of the wind is crisp and yet we can still hear you. Excellent Work. ❤Thank you.

[@abigailgerlach5443]

The difference is staggering. I feel like I'm standing next to you. The color varients are impressive. The light and shade are so detailed and refined. Whatever you paid, it was worth every penny! The sharpness of the picture is so good I believe I'm seeing every blade of grass. It actually shows texture of wood and rock. Good choice Scott!

[@sheenapaden6576]

The definition is amazing! Everything looks so clear and beautiful.❤

[@philiptaylor7902]

Looks so much better: clearer, brighter colours and greater depth of field.

[@tiedyedsouthernfried3137]

I feel like I'm there! This is so much more vibrant and defined. This higher definition makes you feel more like a participant than just an observer. Good work!👍

[@jackiem9298]

[@tammyatkinson3685]

Wow ! Simply amazing !

[@FranWhorton-of5ql]

Fantastic! The colors are vibrant, the lighting perfect as to how it adjusts to bright sunlight, shaded areas, and both together. It's like a previous remark: Like we are there walking beside you.

[@rosielee8381]

Congratulations Scott, it’s superb! I really enjoyed the walkabout and the gimbal made me feel as though it was me actually doing the walk. Wearing earbuds meant that the birdsong, the breeze in the trees and your crunchy footsteps added to the enjoyment.❤❤ I agree about the 3D effect! 👍👍

[@joycurnow6839]

The colours were more vibrant, and in general clearer. Fabulous! 🌿

[@olgamaksymiw7765]

Would love a 2 hour “Scottish Isle forest ambience” video… where you place the camera in a nice spot amongst the trees so we can listen to the wind and the birds ❤

[@lieuwina]

There is a huge difference the clarity, sound, colour, movement, mic and the sounds of nature, birds, wind, sea and while you are walking no shuddering. It is fantastic Scott and Katie. I think you should put signs up on the gates saying please shut the gate behind you and private property.
