These are so much fun (tiny planet images). I guess, in a way, they're made perfectly for our instagrammable lives - eye catching, interesting, and utter trash quality when viewed in any other format or larger than a phone (or maybe tablet screen). Don't take that last bit as an attack - I could post the coolest looking underwater tiny planet I have from my X3 and it barely survives viewing on a phone screen :-D
True. One could also export on desktop which would improve the quality, and use some up-scaling. It won't be the best of the best quality, but it will be significantly better than export on the mobile app.
I’m 99% on desktop. TBH the underwater performance of the x3 (w/o the dive case) is abysmal. My 10 year old Olympus toughcam is head an shoulders above it. The biggest issue is the lack of depth of field / fixed focus underwater and the limited field of view that gets rendered in focus. There is maybe 30-40 degrees that isn’t a blurry mess. It still makes a cool tiny planet though!
