Thanks! No more out of focus!! :clap: Finally got it to work after a few disconnects. Good work!

Looks like you just need to shoot another pano below for below the cam now and fix the pre-sets.

Thanks Brahm. It zooms now but it still does not focus at full zoom. It doesn't matter if it is close like chair 3 loading, or the top of the mountain. It will focus if you back off on the zoom.

Sounds like that's just out of range of the camera, it's also windy up there right now, if you zoom in you can see the cam shaking.

No, I'm talking about focus not movement. If you rack the zoom on people loading #3 they are out of focus. Back off 5% and you have sharp focus. Same with the top of the mountain.

We need to be able to zoom in to see what people are having for lunch on the McCoy deck. :)

Yes, what I'm saying is the zoom capability is beyond that of the cameras focus capabilities. It's a setting I need to restrict. It's odd since you would think it would have "infinity" focus like regular cameras... Either way I need to look into it, won't be able to do so until Monday.

Brahm, will you guys be working on setting up the pre-set locations on the McCoy cam again?

Thanks!

P.S.
The Village cam still does not zoom in past 1/2 way.

can you give us more time on the mccoy cam...?

without presets it takes 20-25 seconds to get the camera where I want it

then ive got 5 seconds max till someone else gets on it...

watching the cam at mid mnt. is what I do to get me stoked about skiing, i can see most of the runs I like at the top

now I rarely look at it, its just frustrating with out presets and with only 30 seconds----- its NO STOKE
