They seem to be an eastern european/russian studio, the models are hot, and some of my favorite videos are made by them... The issue is, a few years ago they had a decent camera, somehow now they have downgraded.
If that wasn't bad enough, recently they started uploading highly distorted videos, that hurt the eyes.
Only way to make them watchable, is to play around with the offset, but I went a long time without knowing about the offset option, and still, it hurts and is complicated to manually find the sweetspot.

People have been talking about it in the comments for a very long time but unlike other studios, they seem to completely ignore feedback. I hope we can encourage studios to have some quality control, atleast watch a 5 second clip of what you are uploading...
It really gets me because the models are hot and it feels like they are putting it effort in messing it up, first by downgrading to a worse camera, not using a tripod/stand, and cherry on top uploading distorted videos that hurt the eye.

    pkloverx Hey, as I mentioned in my last reply I passed the feedback forward to the team. Beyond that, there's nothing more I can do in this case.

      I shared your feedback with the studio. Thank you. Hopefully they will start using tripod ASAP. Also we'll double check their new videos and won't publish if the video hurts eyes.

          bruce @VelvetEcho thanks 🙂
          Tripod use is a lesser evil for sure, in the end some studios are experimenting still. I was just baffled to see that their 3 year old + videos are noticeably higher quality even if the resolution is technically lower, yet their newer videos look totally messed up.
          They probably bought a new camera thinking they were upgrading, but didn't set it up correctly, so hopefully they manage to fix it.
          Also, some of their videos are "fixable" , by changing the offset parameter, I tried manually editing before and could easily notice in the flat sbs that one lense was tilted the wrong way, causing the distorsion.
          Needed to set horizontal offset to -7.5 in the deo vr app settings.

            I've also noticed that their videos are 8k but they are hardly standing up to it. Don't know if there's some upscaling happening here.
            It would be great if you could suggest them a decent 8k camera rig/setup.
