The show was taped from the ranks off Adam's stage side. The distance to the stage is considerable, so no real close-up shots are provided and you can see . However, the biggest drawback is that the colours appear washed out, so the band members appear mostly as gleamy white shapes and no details (e.g.  faces) can be detected. The camera is handheld but the shaking is not dramatic and very rarely the taper loses the focus completely. From time to time a couple of hands get in the way but most of the time the view to the stage is not obstructed.

There are a number of hiccups or second long blackouts of the video detectable. Also a few garbles appear, indicating damages on the video tape used for transfer. From the last half of WOWY, these technical drawbacks become more frequent and serious. The DVD is not authored at all, so the whole concert is one big track.

Audio quality is good and thus far better than the audio bootleg I own of this concert.
