What a shame, a great win and great goals but so difficult to see.

 

[Hawkwell Blue]

For those of you who ever wonder what it’s like to have cataracts…..

 

[THE SEVENTIES NORTH BANK]

And DAZN are refusing refunds. Incredible company. That pass from Golding, superb.

 

[SeldomSeenShrimper]

Always admired Cousins for some reason (Not in a Norwich kind of way, the keeper)

Some great saves yesterday

 

[Sufc.2008]

How did the camera operator not notice the huge condensation blob, were they not looking at what they were recording

I think we should sack him. He didn't even request time off.

Anyone that purchased a batch pass really needs to complain. Very poor from the club (not really the fault of DAZN unless they told them to only get the camera acclimatised 2 minutes before kick off)

The camera will generate heat, and this heat will make the condensation appear on the lens. Once the camera has acclimatised (around an hour or so) it would be fine. Perhaps invest in some silica gel beads to store the camera lens in as it may have a slight defects allowing water / moisture in.

Beads wouldn't help, they just needed to get the lens out sooner

GSM's Bicycle kick for the forth goal was brilliant though

Feel sorry for everyone who wasn't there to see it ... Goal of the season

Beads would help if there was for whatever reason any moisture behind the lens (so inside the camera) and this could be drawn out whilst the camera is stored away.

However best way to ensure a nice clean lens us get it acclimatised to the environment and have it turned on for an hour or so. The camera will get warm, which in turn will change the dew point on the lens.

 

[Holy Joe]

The camera must be up on the gantry over an hour before kick off - I rarely see anyone climb the ladder before kick off, they're already up on the gantry. And you'd think they'd check all equipment working well ahead of kick of in case of any issues.

Least I’m still in a job for the foreseeable

Miss me that much John?

This is where I will drop a line to media and ask them to have a word.
Am assuming it's the same camera persons for all games?
After all, if the operators are ours then DAZN are irrelevant.

In fairness, the problems started not long after the first goal.
Are they looking at a monitor at all? What's the strength of personnel on that gantry?

That's a good point - was ok at the start

 

[ColinMorrisWalksOnWater]

I think, and I could be wrong, but it was an internal heater issue inside the camera. it was rectified, hence the deterioration and then improvement of the picture.

Yeah 100%, but even with beads, they didn't acclimatise the lens so the blew it
