To clean the lens. Even gently wiping over it would work against the
motors of the gimbal I think. It seems that the one I have can cope
with the duration of my walks.

To be honest, I think that the pictures I made are good enough to see
plenty of things that can be mapped. The parking places discussed
earlier, a bread vending machine etc, are still visible and can be
mapped. When I cannot read a label anymore, yes, then the picture is
worthless.
The pictures might be washed out here and there, but hey, I can live
with that. I can start mapping now and do not have to wait to get back
there when it's dry. For me, Mapillary is a source to map, not a
beauty contest for taking nice pictures. And furthermore, their object
recognition algorithms should be able to cope with raindrops,
otherwise, they will be useless in many real-world situations.

So I will keep taking pictures with light rain.

Why would you press against the camera? I used a gimbal for a little less
than a week. It was possible to put in in balance for the horizontal axis,
but not for the 'inclination' axis, which meant that motor had to work hard
in order to keep the camera looking forward horizontally -> battery drain
and hot motor. My conclusion was that it wasn't suitable for a heavier cell
phone like mine. It was also yet another fragile device that was eating up
battery power. It was nice that the pictures were all perfectly horizontal,
but in the end it doesn't matter that much.

So I made use of Coolblue's return policy.

As far as making photographs when it's raining, I usually consider it 'game
over' when it starts to drizzle or rain.

Oops, nu heb ik dat helemaal in het Engels geschreven:

Antwoord op Philippe: wat mij betreft is het gedaan met foto's maken van
zodra het zelfs maar miezert.

Ik vrees een beetje voor mijn gimbal als ik dat doe.
Voorlopig zie ik het maar als een test voor de object herkenning van
Mapillary :-)

Iemand ervaring met gimbals als je telkens weer opnieuw tegen de camera duwt ?
(Anyone experience with gimbals when you keep pressing against the
camera over and over again
?)
