NOTHING BEATS THE HUMAN EYE

For as long as the REDFLEET brand has been around, we’ve been proudly producing content so we can share some of our favourite vehicle fitouts with the world! In recent years, we’ve stepped up our video game, going from filming and editing on a phone, to a much more professional setup and editing process.During that time, one of the questions that people have asked us many times is “why don’t you film outside?” Well, it's quite simple really.... the human eye is far superior at capturi...
