HDhat's Apple Iphone 4 wide angle lens modification and sample real estate video tour.
**HDHat.com is the world's largest real estate video tour editing company.

The addition of a quality wide angle lens to the Iphone 4 produces a big difference in the contrast ratio, the saturation, white balance and stability. This simple tutorial will show you how to quickly and inexpensively add a wide angle lens to your Apple Iphone 4.

Some important notes about the videos below.
*All the videos below have been "stabilized and smoothed" in the HDhat.com editing process. So the finished product you see here is much smoother than the raw footage from the cameras.
*We did not brighten or tweak the colors in any of the videos during the editing process.
*We did change camera settings on the higher end Sony HX-1 so that we were able to capture nice bright video.
*The Iphone 4 because of its lightweight and small size was the most difficult to capture stable video so we used a simple stabilizer bar from http://www.videotourstabilizerbar.com

Mark,

Well done. I too am considering the iphone 4 as a replacement for my 3g phone. The opportunity to take a more direct approach to RE video is just one of the reasons I'm considering the iphone 4.
