Actually a whole load better in its native format. When shown on a TV it is quite 'watchable'. On a PC screen it is crisp and sharp at about 640 x 480. It actually records in that resolution. There is no 'blocky-ness' at all until it is compressed.

i know this footage has been compressed for youtube, but the qualities still quite good. whats it like watching it normally?
Hi, It is the Primitives. The track is 'Crash' The cut here is the 1995-ish mix.

Yeah, know what you mean... late last year we went on a very low spring tide and both valnetines and the Acid drop were STONKING! Dont think I had my cam with me though! Cheers J

Not been to HPP but been to the Twyweryn. (video soon!) No comparison really. The Twryn site has a massive damn and big run down to Bala and the Tees had nothing but a flat tidal river! the Tees does amazingly well! Also the Tees course changes dramatically with the tides. Easy in neap tides..
.....but at the low ebb of spring tides the bottom drops are pretty (like very) sticky.
Worth timing a visit during a spring tide! The bottom drops are really rather fun under those conditions. J

Oh yeah... Tees barrage is 10 mins from Work. HPP 2.5hrs and Twyrn 4 hrs. Cost-time-benefit!
