Pix aero lens

Can anyone give any feedback on the improvement the replacement lens gives

Slightly more narrow field of view, better edge clarity, improved color balance.

Flatter horizon

I'm waiting for some reviews on this lens. It looks promising at a much better price.

I should give them a call and look into it. Be nice if there were some comparison shots against stock, Peau, and PixAero lenses. I see it brightens the horizon like other lenses though.

Interesting comment on the YouTube page. Be nice to know what they did with the imagery in post processing. True performance is found in unedited imagery.

I will check with Richard and see if he has installed and done any testing yet. I know that he planned to do so.

More information regarding the 82 deg lens from Richard Gilmore:

"The 98° lens is the easiest to Modify and swap out lenses as its mount is an M12 threaded mount, making life much easier, if you have the 115° lens, then this is much harder as the mount needs replaced to change a lens. If you've got a shaky hand then I advise against changing this Type, as .... if you cut through the copper Track on the PCB sensor board, its Scrap and you'll need a new sensor PCB. "
